# To say I love you #

# All I want is you to

understand #

# That when I take your hand #

# It's 'cause I want to #

# We are all born in a world of

doubt #

# But there's no doubt #

# I figured out #

# I love you #

# And I feel lonely for #

# All the losers that will

never take the time to say #

# What was really on

their mind instead #

# They just hide away #

# Yet they'll never have #

# Someone like you

to guard them #

# And help along the way #

# Or tell them when it's time #

# To say "I love you" #

# So tell me when it's time #

# To say "I love you" #

Wow, that's great.

-You like it?

-Yeah, it's awesome.

Yeah

I'm glad that we have it 'cause

it might just push something

over the edge

in a place. It might fit, it

might not fit,

but that emotion's so good.

And I like how it's so directed.

Um I don't know how important

it is for people, cause some

people

just seriously like to listen to

the music.

But good lyrics have always

been important to me.

You know, especially when, you

know

it's like when somebody gets it

and you're like

"Ahh, that's cool"

Should I just go in and record

this real fast?

-Yeah, you could, then we could

just place it

wherever you want it to start.

-Yeah, I could just play it

over, and over, and over again.

-Yeah, we'll just place it..

Hey can you hear me?

-Yes! -Hi!

-Oh my God, the magic of

technology!

-It sounds really, really good.

-Ok, let me try it a couple

times

then you can tell me what to do.

What to change.

-Ok, do it as many times as you

want.

# Nobody likes you #

# Everyone left you #

# They're all out without you #

# Having fun #

It's really good.

# Nobody likes you #

# Everyone left you #

# They're all out without you #

# Having fun #

I'm bored now, can you comp it?

[LAUGHING] Yeah, no problem.

-Well good luck with your

record.

[CHEERING]

# Nobody likes you #

# Everyone left you #

# They're all out without you #

# Having fun #

[CHEERING]

# Where have all the

bastards gone? #

# The underbelly stacks

up ten high #

# The dummy failed the crash

test #

# Collecting unemployment

checks #

# Like a flunkie along for the

ride #

# Where have all the riots gone #

# As the city's motto gets

pulverized? #

# What's in love is now in debt #

# On your birth certificate #

# So strike the f***ing match

to light this fuse #

# The town bishop is an

extortionist #

# And he don't even know that

you exist #

# Standing still when it's do

or die #

# You better run for your

f***ing life #

# It's not over 'till you're

underground #

# It's not over before

it's too late #

# This city's burnin' #

# It's not my burden #

# It's not over before

it's too late #

# There's nothing left to

analyze #

# Where will all the martyrs go #

# When the virus cures itself? #

# And where will we all go when

it's too late? #

# Don't look back #

# You're not the Jesus of

Suburbia #

# The St. Jimmy is a figment of #

# Your father's rage and your

mother's love #

# Made me the idiot America #

# It's not over 'till you're

underground #

# It's not over before

it's too late #

# This city's burnin' #

# It's not my burden #

# It's not over before

it's too late #

# She said I can't take

this place #

# I'm leaving it behind #

# Well she said I can't take

this town #

# I'm leaving you tonight #

[CHEERING]

Yeah baby!

Tune it up real quick,

make it sweet.

Ah this is fun.

This guitar's gonna come in.

-Sounds good. -Nice.

Is this a power ballad?

[LAUGHTER]

You know I can ruin a good time

real fast

anytime you want me to.

I'm just checking the sound,

just play a little real quick.

[GERMAN ACCENT] I'm from

Germany and I live here

in United States, I'm

tambourine artist

in Hollywood Studios as you can

see

they call me Captain Hey..

on account of I'm also brought

in the studio

to say "Hey" on records.

And to hit the tambourine in a

certain way

-What records have you done

"Hey" on?

Perhaps you've heard the

Outkast "Hey Ya"

every time is says "Hey" it's

Captain Hey

that's me..

unsung hero.

But I don't really like to..

It's part of my gig, is to not

to..

-Hey is the only thing you do?

No it's not to be appreciated,

it's like giving to charity,

you know?

You don't do it for the credit.

You do it for the satisfaction

of fixing people's records.

Mix em'!

Play! Play!

Like I play my harem, a little

bit of caucasian,

a little bit of black, a little

bit of persian.

Can you send a runner, Jimmy,

to get a 50 pound bag of

magnesium sulfite?

[LAUGHTER]

YEAH!

Hey can you please mute that?

YEAH!

-Hey could you please mute that?

YEAH!

[LAUGHTER]

-Hey can we get Zach to bring

his percussion box down?

[LISPY VOICE]-Bring his box

down.. tell Zach to bring his

perc box.

[LAUGHTER]

His big UUUNNGHH!

Oooh oooh!

YEAH MAN!

Oh no, wait a minute I don't

this this is such a good idea

OOOooooh!

[LAUGHTER]

-I don't think this is such a

good idea, is that what you

said?

I don't think this is such a

good OOOooooh!

-Do the second block, start

with the second block

-Starting with the second block.

-So you want me to use the

whole.. -Use all that.

From in the chorus, from the

chorus

to where you stopped, right?

I didn't realize how little I

play in this song.

-But you got a great moment.

-Oh yeah!

Oh no, it's key, it's probably

the best moment in the song,

actually.

[LAUGHTER]

Don't think I don't think that

about every song anyway.

No, it's badass.

It's just structurally..

-That song's kicking my ass.

-I like it a lot.

-Me too, I love it.

Yeah.. it's about time you

wrote this one.

# Summer has come and passed #

# The innocent can never last #

# Wake me up when September

ends #

# Like my fathers come to pass #

# Seven years has gone so fast #

# Wake me up when September

ends #

# Here comes the rain again #

# Falling from the stars #

# Drenched in my pain again #

# Becoming who we are #

# As my memory rests #

# But never forgets what I lost #

# Wake me up when September

ends #

[CHEERING]

# Summer has come and passed #

# The innocent can never last #

# Wake me up when September

# Ring out the bells again #

# Like we did when spring began #

# Wake me up when September

ends #

# Here comes the rain again #

# Falling from the stars #

# Drenched in my pain again #

# Becoming who we are #

# As my memory rests #

# But never forgets what I lost #

Take him to the corner!

[COMMOTION AND LAUGHTER]

I love every minute of it!

[LAUGHTER]

I never purposely write the sad

songs,

or anything like that, I think

it's more..

It's just more natural it comes
