Green Day are ready to knock out teeth with the NHL in “Fire, Ready, Aim”
Just over a week ago, Green Day revealed they would be debuting a brand new song during a video montage that would air ahead of an NHL game. Now, the new track is finally here!
The new song is called “Fire, Ready, Aim” and comes from the band’s upcoming album Father Of All… out February 7, 2020. Check it out below!

“Fire, Ready, Aim” is now the opening theme song for the National Hockey League and NBCSN’s Wednesday Night Hockey game broadcasts. The song will also be featured on NHL on NBC broadcasts throughout the 2019-2020 season.
Green Day took to Twitter to offer a small bit of insight behind the track.
“How many trolls does it take to screw in a lightbulb? The answer is Fire Ready Aim! A new tune for the loons! This song is about our daily outrage. Attack without thought.. hyperbole. Anyway stick a hammer in your mouth. Shut up and dance!”

“Fire, Ready Aim” lyrics:
Kick the dog when the whistle blows
You’re a liar
Feed the creeps with a stick and bone
You’re a liar
Baby got the hyperbole
Baby got the hyperbole
Kick the dog when the whistle blows
You’re a liar
Rip it up on retribution
Turn it up sideways
Ready aim fire
Fire ready aim
Stick a hammer in your mouth
You’re a liar
Knock your teeth out
To the ground
You’re a liar
Baby got the hyperbole
Baby got the hyperbole
Knock your teeth out
To the ground
You’re a liar
