She was a little boy named Train.   

Hey, for topics sake - the lyrics to three of the songs are up on AZlyrics, my personal favorite lyrics site.   

About to see how wrong they are.   They have Trans, Flat and Ivankkk.

On first listen:

I like trans am.

Flat Earth is good.

I need to listen to fentanyl again (got interrupted by the service worker). 

Ivankkka - still on the fence about.

While The Network tackle dark and twisted subject matter with their lyrics, they don't curse nearly as much as Green Day do.   

Spike if the only explicit track, and that one is more dialogue than singing.

We need the lyrics to fentanyl l 

I tried to type them out and gave up.    Maybe after dinner will be able figure it out.     Biscuits and gravy!  

Do we know what city The Network are from?    Their accent is Swiss German, but that's the only information I can find.   

I want to become a citizen of their hometown.

I'd figure it out, but I don't speak English. English sucks and I would drive myself (even more) insane trying to decipher his mumbling.

But for what it's worth, I think the chorus (or some part of the song, idk anything) is either saying "lights out" or "it's you".

Thankfully there aren’t that many lyrics to Fentanyl but my first go is:

How sweet it is to get hate from you x2

Trust no-one they’re the enemy x 3

(Big bit I can make nothing of)

Bless you / press you / pressure ? X 3

How sweet it is to get lies from you x 2

In my eyes you’re the enemy x 3

Turn/torture your lights down..........never sure

Bless you / press you / pressure  x 3 x 2

 

This is a slightly amended version I uploaded a couple of pages back, feel free to correct.  It seems the song is called Asphyxiation is some places, so pressure could be right.

I was listening to it again earlier, and think you're right about it being pressure.

Wait, Fentanyl has a different name in other places? How weird. You'd think a song name would be a song name. It's not like American Idiot is called like "USA Moron" somewhere else. It's American Idiot worldwide. Why would they have two different names for the same song? Fentanyl and Asphyxiation? :huh: Or am I misunderstanding something?

I have no idea why the press release and other sites have "Fentanyl" listed as "Asphyxia." Maybe it was the original name?

Edit: Rolling Stone's tracklisting at the bottom: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/the-network-trans-am-green-day-1093147/

It's the same in the press release too. 🤷‍♀️ but all the streaming sites have it as "Fentanyl."

Sorry, didn’t mean geographically 😁

Judging by @Little Boy Named Booze's answer where he said it was just a translation issue and didn't say anything about meaning the car I'd assume not.

Loving Trans Am more and more at every listen, moving to a solid third place in front of Flat Earth.

Nah you were right it wasn't about the car.
And now without knowing it I insulted the LGBTQ+ community and I'm not proud of it.

Not at all, it was just a language thing. Just took the opportunity to point it out for future reference.
