Good Riddance (The Time of Your Life) by Green Day
Green Day has an acoustic ballad that was a huge crossover hit because it was used in the finale of Seinfeld in 1998. The track has wistful lyrics about how time flies and is great for weddings, graduations, and proms. Still, the happy people might need to examine the lyrics because it’s actually about a rebuke against a girlfriend!

This song has become the anthem for last calls in bars. However, the lyrics don’t have anything to do with that. Instead, they were written about Dan Wilson’s girlfriend’s pregnancy. They realized the bar connection and admitted they knew the audience might think it was about that.
