Did they change the lyrics? I was trying to listen but was a noisy environment at my house.

No, they didn't do the MAGA agenda bit.

Agreed, but still big brass balls.

Maga heads would have exploded a la Mars Attacks

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

That'd be a beautiful moment but I'm picturing more of a Kingsman ending.

They would sing along having no idea it was making fun of them.

[–] agingelderly@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Lol they'd turn it into their anthem

Put it up there with "Fortunate Son" and "Born in the U.S.A."

Maga agenda? Isn't the lyric "redneck agenda"?

[–] cabbage@piefed.social 11 points 1 month ago

They've changed it in recent years, apparently changed it back for the half time show.

I suspect a lot of things would have been said had the artists been allowed to say what they wanted. I'm impressed and disappointed by their professionalism.

Then again, within the constraints of not saying anything political, it seems both Bad Bunny and Green Day did a decent job getting their points across.

like many popular songs by bands that have continued performing over decades, lyrics evolve.

To me it sounded like they did but the audio was censored.

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They censored the word "mindfuck."

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I know but they censored that too.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Which ironically makes Green Day American Idiots.

Unfortunately no, I was hoping for a direct call out too
