"Bobby Sox" is a song by the American rock band Green Day from their fourteenth studio album, Saviors (2024). Released as the album's fifth single, the song was originally written by Billie Joe Armstrong as a love song to his wife, but its lyrics evolved to instead reflect his bisexuality, with Armstrong calling it "the '90s song that we never wrote".
An accompanying music video for the song, directed by Brendan Walker and Ryan Baxley, was released on January 19, 2024. Shot at a backyard party, the music video finished the string of music videos by being the only one shot fully in color, starting from that of "The American Dream is Killing Me", which was entirely in black-and-white.
"Bobby Sox" has received a generally positive reception from music critics, who praised its catchiness and declared it a "bisexual anthem". The song is included in the setlist of The Saviors Tour, the concert tour in support of Saviors. It would also be included on the soundtrack of the short skate film "Monsters & Saviors" and released to modern rock radio.
