Sweet Children

Written during the time of Green Day's awesome immaturity, this song is about a young couple fumbling their way through their first sexual encounter.

A fast-paced punk rocker, "Sweet Children" played well in the sweaty clubs where Green Day often took the stage. A few years later their venues got substantially bigger when they signed with a major label and released their monster album Dookie.

The song first appeared on Green Day's 1990 EP titled Sweet Children, then in 1992 was included on their second album, Kerplunk!
