(We see JEREMY at home, before school. He's at his computer, furiously waiting for

something to load. We get the impression it might be homework or something huge...)

"More Than Survive"

JEREMY

C-C-C-C'MON, C-C-C-C'MON, GO GO

C-C-C-C'MON, C-C-C-C'MON, GO GO

I'M WAITING FOR MY PORNO TO LOAD

MY BRAIN IS GONNA FRIKKIN EXPLODE

AND NOW OF COURSE IT'S TIME TO HIT THE ROAD

WHICH MEANS I'LL BE UNCOMFORTABLE ALL DAY

BUT THAT REALLY ISN'T SUCH A CHANGE

IF I'M NOT FEELING WEIRD OR SUPER STRANGE

MY LIFE WOULD BE IN UTTER DISARRAY

CUZ FREAKING OUT IS MY OK

GOOD MORNING, TIME TO START THE DAY

C-C-C-C'MON, C-C-C-C'MON, GO GO

C-C-C-C'MON, C-C-C-C'MON, GO GO

(JEREMY bolts from the room and enters the bathroom. He looks at himself in the

mirror. Lifts up his shirt to check for muscles. His DAD enters.)

JEREMY

Dad! Haven't you heard of privacy?

JEREMY'S DAD

We're all men in this house. Pretend we're in the army.

JEREMY

Just... When I get home... Please have pants on. Okay?

JEREMY'S DAD

Ten-hut.

(JEREMY heads outside.)

JEREMY

NOW SHOULD I TAKE THE BUS OR WALK INSTEAD?

I FEEL MY STOMACH FILLING UP WITH DREAD

WHEN I GET NERVOUS MY WHOLE FACE GOES RED

DUDE, WEIGH THE OPTIONS CALMLY AND BE STILL

A JUNIOR ON THE BUS IS KILLER WEAK

BUT IF I WALK WHEN I ARRIVE I'M GONNA STRAIGHT-UP REEK

AND MY BOXERS WILL BE BUNCHY AND MY PITS WILL LEAK

UGH, GOD, I WISH I HAD THE SKILL

TO JUST BE FINE AND COOL AND CHILL

(Perhaps we see JEREMY on the bus, heading to school.)

I DON'T WANT TO BE A HERO

JUST WANNA STAY IN THE LINE

I'LL NEVER BE A ROB DENIRO

FOR ME, JOE PESCI IS FINE

AND SO I FOLLOW MY OWN RULES

AND I USE THEM AS MY TOOLS

TO STAY ALIVE

I DON'T WANT TO BE SPECIAL, NO NO

I JUST WANNA SURVIVE

(JEREMY arrives at school. Students buzz around and sing along with him.)

JEREMY, STUDENTS

C-C-C-C'MON, C-C-C-C'MON, GO GO

C-C-C-C'MON, C-C-C-C'MON, GO GO

(JEREMY goes to his locker, where CHLOE and BROOKE gossip, JENNA ROLAN
trying to wedge her way in.)
