You gotta hear me now

You gotta hear me now

Well, well, well.

That was quite a show you all put on

at the Halloween Bash.

Mm. Heh, heh.

You're very talented. Very.

But just for your information,

a high school dance is no place

for a...political tirade.

Yeah.

What you did Friday night

was completely...

Completely disruptive.

And you.

You promised

there'd be no funny business.

But it wasn't funny.

We just spoke our minds and--

Principal Brenigan, you shut us down.

Yes, I shut you down,

because the decisions I make

are for the good of this school, okay?

And with that good in mind,

Lemonade Mouth is finished.

You will not use the music room.

You will not use the instruments.

If I hear so much as a hum

coming from the locker-room showers,

I will suspend you.

Understood?

Good. Dismissed.

Psst.

What's this?

It's you.

Your show.

Listen, a bunch of kids

have been asking if they can buy them.

l hope you don't mind,

but I've already sold like five copies,

l figure, you know, AV club gets

Deal?

Yeah.

Excellent.

"This year's Halloween Bash

will best be remembered

for the powerful performances

by surprise standout Lemonade Mouth."

"A champion for students sidelined

by the high school privileged and elite."

- Can you believe it?

- Our first review.

And last, apparently.

I think they like us.

Ha, ha.

I'm not sure it's us they like, Charlie.

What do you mean?

- Come on, bro.

- Never mind. Never mind.

You think you've seen it all before

Just watch me now

But I'm bringing so much more

Just watch me now

And when yourjaw drops to the floor

Just watch me now

I'll be showing you...

Oh, my gosh, it's them.

Just watch me

- Awesome. Lemonade Mouth.

- Oh, hey.

- Hi.

- Hey.

- Hey, Olivia.

- Hi.

- Oh, sorry. Sorry, Alex.

- Hi.

You think you've seen it all before

That's Lemonade Mouth. That's our band.

- That's us. Oh, my gosh.

- I know.

Just watch me now

Don't poke it.

You've gotta pull it down.

Just yank it right off the wa--

Hey, Stella. Come here.

Now, I thought I made myself clear.

This lemonade business is over.

It wasn't us.

You're playing

a dangerous game here, miss.

- We had nothing to do with that.

- And you're gonna lose.

Hector, it is not a piata.

Don't poke it, hit it. Take it down!

What would you say...

lf, um, we told you we could play again?

Heh. I'd say you're nuts.

Brenigan is never gonna change his mind.

We're not talking about at school.

We're talking about here.

- Here?

- Mm-hm.

Look, guys, I--

I gave Dante our CD, and he loved it.

Yeah, and he said

we could start playing here.

Principal Brenigan can tell us

we can't play at school,

but he can't tell us not to play here.

- And it could become a regular gig.

- Mm-hm.

Wait, wait, a regular gig?

I barely made it through the first one.

Guys, my parents already think

I'm at soccer practice every afternoon.

There's no way I can pull this off.

Me either. Scott eats here,

and I'm pretty much planning on not

seeing him again for the rest of my life.

Guys, we mean something to people.

Lemonade Mouth is their voice.

It's like we're at the center

of a movement here.

- Hi.

- Maybe if...

- I mean, it--

- Guys, good luck with your movement,

but I've got homework to do.

- Mo.

- Let's go.

Mo, you okay?

What? No way.

- Oh, it's beautiful.

- Look at us up there.

Maybe we do matter.

Of course we do.

Before we knew it, we were playing

at Dante's Pizzeria

every Thursday night.

Standing room only.

We were ready for Rising Star.

We were ready to be heard.

Insecure in her skin

Like a puppet. A girl on a string

Broke away, learned to fly

If you want her back

Gotta let her shine

So it looks like the joke's on you

'Cause the girl

That you thought you knew

- She's so gone

- She's so gone

That's so over now

- She's so gone

- She's so gone

You won't find her around

You can look, but you won't see

The girl I used to be

'Cause she

She's so gone away

Like history

She's so gone

Baby, this is me, yeah

- She's so gone

- She's so gone

That's so over now

- She's so gone

- She's so gone

You won't find her around

You can look, but you won't see

The girl I used to be

'Cause she

- She's so gone

- She's so gone

That's so over now

- She's so gone

- She's so gone

You won't find her around

You can look, but you won't see

The girl I used to be

'Cause she

She's so gone

So long. She's so gone

Lemonade Mouth

was officially a sensation.

Will you autograph my CD?

And five strangers

were suddenly much, much more.

We were friends.

Can I get your autograph?

- Would you listen to my demo?

- Charlie!

What's up, guys?

Has anyone seen Olivia today?

- I haven't seen her all day.

- No?

You okay?

Yeah, you came.

We all did.

- Hey.

- Hey, Olivia.

Look, I'm-- I'm really sorry about Nancy.

Yeah, me too.

Hey, it's nice out here.

Yeah. Sometimes I like to look up

and see what shapes I can find.

You know, in the clouds.

It's a giant old lady with a...

A skirt and an umbrella.

See, there... There's a flower in a vase.

Oh, I see a hand.

No, you're way off. It's a...

It's a alien pushing a baby carriage.

All I see is a blob.

Sometimes I think I'm too stupid

to be in my family.

Like I'm just some big letdown.

No wonder my mom ignores me.

I wish my dad would ignore me.

I'm never gonna live up to this idea he has

of this perfect Indian daughter, you know?

Heh. Try living up to a perfect brother.

I'd take perfect brother any day

over my dad's ridiculous girlfriend.

My dad's in prison.

Ugh.

I just--

I'm too humiliated to talk to him

or about him and...

You know, he writes,

but I don't write back,

because I don't know what to say.

I mean, he's made some really bad

decisions since my mom died,

and I still love him, but he's--

He's a stranger now, you know?

Which is why I'm so glad to have this,

you know.

- Our friendship.

- Mm.

Yeah. Okay.

I can't pretend to know how you feel

But know that I'm here

Know that I'm real

Say what you want

Or don't talk at all

Not gonna let you fall

Reach for my hand

'Cause it's held out for you

My shoulders are small

But you can cry on them too

Everything changes

But one thing is true, understand

We'll always be more than a band

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You used to brave the world

All on your own

Now we won't let you go. Go it alone

Be who you wanna be

Always stand tall

Not gonna let you fall

Reach for my hand

'Cause it's held out for you

My shoulders are strong

But you can cry on them too

Everything changes

But one thing is true, understand

We'll always be more than a band

I never knew you could take me so far

I've always wanted the hope

- That you are the ones I need

- Yeah

Reach for my hand

'Cause it's held out for you

My shoulders are strong

But you can cry on them too

Everything changes

But one thing is true, understand

We'll always be more than a band

Reach for my hand

'Cause it's held out for you
