text: Billie Joe, it certainly is exciting to meet you here at the recording studio, right after youve just made your very first record! How does it feel?
  Hmmm... Wonderful!
  She smashed the radio with the board of education
  Turned up the static left of the state of the nation
  Turn on the flame, step on the gas
  Burning the flag at half mast
  Shes the rebel forgotten son
  An export of the revolution
  She is the first voice of the last ones in the line
  Shell drag the weights to keep the vendetta alive
  Bring in the head of the government
  The dog ate the document
  Someone shot the president
  And no one knows where Maria went!
  Maria! Maria!
  Maria! Where did ya go?
  Be careful what youre offering
  Your breath lacks the conviction
  Drawing a line in the dirt
  Because the last decision is no! Its no!
  She smashed the radio with the board of education
  Turned up the static left of the state of the nation
  Turn on the flame, step on the gas
  Burning the flag at half mast
  Shes the rebel forgotten son
  An export of the revolution
  Maria! Maria!
  Maria! Where did ya go?
  Maria! Maria!
  Maria! Where did ya go?
