because the world is run|by The Man.
- Who?|- The Man.
Oh, you don't know The Man?
Well, he's everywhere.
In the White House, down the hall.|Miss Mullins, she's The Man.
And The Man ruined the ozone,|and he's burning down the Amazon,
and he kidnapped Shamu|and put her in a chlorine tank.
There used to be a way to stick it|to The Man. It was called rock 'n' roll.
But guess what. Oh, no.
The Man ruined that too|with a little thing called MTV!
So don't waste your time
trying to make anything cool|or pure or awesome.
The Man's just gonna call you a fat,|washed-up loser and crush your soul.
So do yourselves a favor|and just give up!
Mr. Schneebly, it's after 10.
On Tuesdays, the children|have music class now.
Right. OK. Good work, people.
We will continue with our lecture|on The Man when we return.
Have a good music class.

Can't you see|That I am not afraid
Lawrence is good at piano
He shall be rocking|In my show
Stop. That's perfect. You're perfect.|Stay right there, OK?
You. Could you come up here,|please?
- What was your name?|- Katie.
What was that big thing|you were playing today?
Cello.
This is a bass guitar.|It's exactly the same,
but instead of playing like this, you tip it|on the side, "chello", you've got a bass.
Try it on.
OK, now play this note|right here. That's a G.
OK, but let your fingers|do the rocking.
Keep that G coming all day long.
G, G, G, G, G, G
Good. Stop. Are there any drummers|in the house?
- I play percussion.|- You couldn't play anything else.
- Shut up!|- Come here, dude.
Just see if you can do what I do.|Just give it a try.
OK? Give that a try.
OK!
That's really good.|Just stay right here.
All right, OK.|Lawrence, give me a G note.
And the middle one.|No middle one, I changed my mind.
Now go an octave below.
Now give me some rhythm.
And keep that same rhythm. Go.
Katie, remember that note, the G?
