Foo Fighters - Word Forward Lyrics

I think about my relationship with God when I hear this. I should live for him instead of just praying words... Thank you Jesus!

( O 3 O )

Good bye Jimmy, farewell youth
I must be on my way I've had enough of you
Was a young man, proud and true
Just a simple boy with nothing left to lose

Years that I've wasted
These I owe you's

They're just fucking words
This is life or death
It's time to clear the air
You better save your breath
Say have you heard
Say have you heard
The poison in my heart
And voices in my head;

Years that I've wasted
These I owe you's

I meant every word for word for word forward
Word for word for word forward
Word for word for word forward
Word for word for word forward

But it's only words
I meant every word
They're just fucking words

Word for word; for word forward
Word for word; for word forward
Word for word; for word forward
Word for word; for word forward
Word for word; for word forward

<3

I love how they can make their best song ever just saying word for most the song haha haha love it

One of my favorite songs to lift me up and get me going

These one grain of rice sluts (uncooked) they only started this shit in 2002, we’ve all been doing this shit since 1988, I reckon they can just fuck off the best of us just don’t want them

They're just fuckin words!

Goodbye Jimmy, farewell youth - Music like this is still being made today, search up 'Take A Look - HeadAche (Official Music Video)'

名曲ってかFoo Fightersの最高傑作ベスト

amazing band and song!

R.I.P Jimmy.

Only Foo Fighters would add 2 brand new songs on a greatest hits album haha

Or the offspring

Or the RHCP and Jamiroquai !

hunsler1006 nothing with adding 2 new songs to a greatest hits album....beats the usual ones with just all the hits 😂

That's cause this songs legendary status

Most bands put new or unreleased material on greatest-hits albums

Again the main musical style influences are a blend of the Beatles, Led Zepplin and Kurt Cobain...

Yeah, first thing I thought when I heard the beginning of this song was, "Wow, this sounds a lot like the Beatles."

Yes. The begin sounds a lot like "A day in the life" by The Beatles :)

Just some fuckin words

One of their most underrated songs. Absolutely love this one!

"Underrated" It's on the greatest hits album bud

@Disco Spider As a previously unreleased track!! Many people don't know it

Absolute banger

yea same with me

<3 <3 <3

everyone says Jimmy is a different person in these comments.... so who is Jimmy to you?

A childhood friend of Dave's

sorry so so sorry as a foo fighters fan but I did not remember this song ;(

+biglorenz but is so fuckin nice bout the way

+biglorenz I didnt rember it either excepy from the greatest hits album

I think it was only on that album, there are more remix's of this song after it came out on the greatest hit album so I am guessing it is saying it is the one off of the greatest hit album

+theinsanesailor I get you,I know how you feel

someboody play this song on my funeral please

I want wheels at mine

+Totally A Real Human Nice one

the way the second guitar crunches its way back at 3:05 is the best ever...

yessireebob.....

dam, another boring commercial youtube

Jimmy passed away in 2008. A year after my nearly fatal car accident. He was the Road Manager for FF but left that and moved back home. You were the best Jimmy.

Jimmy neutron

Jimmy was a beautiful soul. Met in junior high and I fell in love at first sight. Sadly an accidental overdose took him from us. But everyone that knew and loved him is keeping his memory alive. Rest in peace blue eyes. Until we meet again .♥

Goodbye Jimmy farewell youth...so sad :(

Is this about Jimmy Swanson?

This song makes me happy. Stupid happy.

this sorta reminds me of wake me up when september ends for some reason

Wow, at first I thought wtf, but you're kind of right.

This is really one of the reasons why I love Foo Fighters. This song is awesome.

Got grounded for listening to this. They're just fucking words.

Tell your parents at least you're not listening to some rap with 20 n words in one song.

@Dave Kent Poetry

@Dave Kent Oh, and you're grounded by the way.

+gamedemon24 By gary

Nicholas P What?! Why?! That stupid! Tell your parents to get educated on what good music is

My sister hates this song and every time she walks into the room I blast 0:54 as loud as i can to piss her off

That bitch is a corn ball I wanna slap her just for you

One of there most underated songs

These are yo-yo's

in what way is that beatles song identical to this

Hate the guy not the intro! haha

i hate the intro because of a guy in my class plays it 24 fuckin 7

This is my motto song to keep me writing this thesis - word forward !

this song honestly saved my life THANK YOU DAVE

R.I.P. My friend Jhonattan !!

farwell jimmy.

Hi, I'm spongebob have we met before?

Love this song it rocks

WORD FORWARD FORWARD FORWAAAAAAARD<3 this is better than sex, beer, drugs and whatever. OMG I LOVE THIS SONG

and im the president of teletubbies land

Another band that did this was Red Hot Chili Peppers "Brendan's Death Song" really beautiful

lol if you see him in concert he says fuck pretty much in between every word

Dave said the no no word!

They say "word" 52 times. I don't think that they got their point accross well enough.

Proprio un bel pezzo,nel stile foo fighters,da cantare a voce alta!!!!!grandi

"goodbye jimmy, farewell youth" that's so sad...it's a song to dave's best buddy, jimmy swanson that died in 2007. the inclusion of this song in foo fighter's best of it's a true act of friendship to me

nice try attempting to get more views by increasing the length of the video making people think your version is longer than the ACTUAL album version.

SAY HAVE YOU HEARD, SAY HAVE YOU HEARD!!!

Two weeks. Reading Festival. CANNOT WAIT <3

foos, in my heart forever!

this is real music, not that bullshit pop music

Moviemaster21 lmao

Hold on guys, I have to go get Foo'd ...

you got me there

but dude... THEY'RE JUST FUCKING WORDS!

i had to mute the curses cuz my 7 year old cousin walked by

THEY'RE JUST FUCKIN' WORDS !

They're just fucking words!!!!!!!

get over it. no need for any drama or resentment. i dont care what the hell he did to you, just fucking move on. you can be better than that.

one of the best foo songs ever written IMO..THEY'RE JUST FUCKING WORDSSS!

They're just f...... words. pls!!

THEYRE JUST FUCKING WORDS!

Yeah Go Taylor! 2:53-3:08 :D

The song gives me chills while you can scream it along, on the top off you're lungs! Love it!

Well at least they have so much more good music than just this song...

I just bought this album... IT'S GREAT !!!!!!!!!

I'm really pissed off. My (now) ex-boyfriend first showed me this song, and as much as I love it, I can't listen to it without thinking about him. Fuuuccckkkkk. :p

Word! Forward!!! Forward!!! Forward!!!

Keep rocking

Hmm nearly identical to A Day In The Life

the song is dedicated to his childhood buddy whom died and he had to get over it somehow so this song helped him do that. his name was jimmy.

@brandemonium5 definitely hear it, guess thats why it gives me an eargasm

thought this is not a foo fighters popular song, it is sure one of my favorites

When this song came my mom freaked out and I'm like, mom that's the point of the song. Also, does the beginning sound like A Day in the Life to anyone else?

el principio del verso me hace acordar mucho a la canción a day in the life de los beatles. de todos modos gran canción!!

@RockInPeaceBon your a funny man for predicting what came true.

THEY'RE JUST FUCKING WORDS

intro reminds me of "Bridge Burning""

OOOHhhhh well, the byrd byrd byrd, the byrds the word. Oh well the byrd byrd byrd, the byrds the word.

@slayman888 man time passed

@RockInPeaceBon they have a new album its called "wasting light" and its awesome :)

I love this song :D

@RockInPeaceBon Well, you were right. :)

This song is most certainly not just fuckin' words. This is amazing.

i haz this album :D

4 persons dont go forward

@Retina100000 sounds really convincing, you should be a politician!!

the beginning of this song sounds a lot like shes leaving home off sgt peppers

@ldaj95 haha, ok.

I look up This band. Thre is not band who touched my hearth like FF

@KenBory hey its not quite good. its awesome
