"Macy's Day Parade" was the final single and is the final track of Green Day's album Warning. It also appears on the compilation album, International Superhits!, and the live EP Tune in Tokyo. Billie Joe Armstrong is quoted as saying "It's sort of about the lies and deceptions that you have growing up and how you have to find your own way around".
The music video for "Macy's Day Parade", filmed in black and white, consists of Billie Joe walking around an area of a city filled with debris and equipment, giving the appearance of a factory or construction site. The camera continually follows Billie Joe around the area. The whole video is one continuous take. For a short while, the video comes to a pause where movement stops, and Billie Joe rejoins Mike and Tre, who are playing their instruments in a small side section of the structure. After this short meeting, Billie Joe departs once again, making his way through the smaller sections of the structure, before finding himself out on a main road, and clambers into a waiting car, before disappearing into the distance as the video draws to an end.
This is an unusual video in that it does not contain much footage of the band as a group as seen in the majority of their other videos, and focuses mainly on Billie Joe. This video was directed by Mark Kohr.
