"Fuzz!-2-3-4!Half pretty boy, half pretty girl. Half calm, half spaz. Half great, half the greatest. Snare!-2-3-4!Make sure you listen closely, because it will not be reviewed after class. Make sure you look with your ears and pay attention with your heart. Jump!-2-3-4!Oh those swirling guitar sounds, where did they come from, and where are they going to end up? Punch!-2-3-4! “Do you have this on cassette? I really need it at full volume in my '79 Impala.” Bridge Junior Major? They've got it. What's “it”? It's what they've got, and you don't have any, that's why you need them. Still paying attention? Drum fill into payoff It bleeds, it shreds, it croons, it screams, it's clean, it's gross, it's not retro, it's Junior Major and it doesn't fuck around. Refrain."
