"Give Me Novacaine" is a track from Green Day's American Idiot, released in 2004, and its title says plenty on its own: somebody asking for the painkiller, begging to go numb. Billie Joe Armstrong wrote the words, the band shares the music credit, and Green Day produced it together with Rob Cavallo.
Chris Lord-Alge mixed it, with Doug McKean engineering and a small crew of assistants behind them. Nobody tried to sand the ache out of it.
