[edit] Music video

The video features Green Day playing in a house while a bunch of kids are jumping around, breaking stuff and having a good time (in slow motion). The video was directed by Marc Webb. It shows the band playing in a bunch of scenes (at normal speed), and focuses on Billie Joe nearer to the end.
