So what do they have you playing?ALEX: "7:05," "Hello Beautiful," "Burning Up," and another that I'm singing by myself.BJ: And it is?ALEX: A surprise. But it took A LOT of practice. We had to clean up a word or two as well.BJ: Oh dear. It's one of my songs isn't it?ALEX: Maaaayyybbeee.(For Alex's song, she takes the center mic. Nick goes back to the drums, and Alex gets Kevin's guitar.)ALEX: For this next song, we're changing the way we do business. I dedicate this song to the MASTER of music, the original singer of this song, and I'm proud to call him my uncle: Billie Joe Armstrong. (She plugs in the guitar and starts playing. Here are the cleaned-up lyrics:)ALEX:Say, hey!Hear the sound of the falling rainComing down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!)The shameThe ones who died without a nameHear the dogs howling out of keyTo a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (Hey!)And bleed, the company lost the war todayI beg to dream and differ from the hollow liesThis is the dawning of the rest of our livesOn holidayHear the drum pounding out of timeAnother protester has crossed the line (Hey!)To find, the money's on the other sideCan I get another Amen?
