American Idiot, chapter 1
I'm the son of Rage and Love... the Jesus of Suburbia...
An alarm clock rings loudly at 6:30. a pale hand under a black blanket emerges and hits it hard. "stupid alarm..." Jimmy rolls out of his bed slowly walking to his closet door. "Jimmy wake up! You're gonna miss Tunny!" his mother yelled from Down stairs. "I know! I'm up! God!" yelled Jimmy back. he puts on his regular attier: black shirt with black jeans with black chuck's and a black hoodie. he runs downstairs and shoots out the door. Outside he sees Tunny and walks with him. "what took you so long J?" asked Tunny. "overslept" jimmy said simply. "I should've known"
They got to school and went throught their usual school stuff. Jimmy, Tunny and the rest of Jimmy's friends called 'the underbelly' sat at their table at lunch and talked about their usual subjects. "hey you guys wanna hang at the 7-11 today? I heard theres a clerk who sells alcohol and ciggerets for cheap" said Tunny. "sure why not" replied Jimmy in a dull tone. He was writting in his note book like he always does. "why do you always write in that notebook? and what do you write?" asked Tunny. "thats none of your buisness man" said Jimmy as Tunny grabed the book. "lets see what little Jimmy writes in here... Don't Wanna be an American Idiot don't wanna nation under the new mania... what the hell is that?" said Tunny. " fuck of man. its just my thoughts okay" said Jimmy a bit embaressed. "lets see what else... I'm the son of rage and love, the Jesus of Suburbia... who gave you that title?" said Tunny laughing. Jimmy had enough an punched him in the stomic. "I outta here. see ya'll at 7-11" said Jimmy snaching the book out of Tunny's hand and left the lunch room.

Jimmy sat in the parking lot of 7-11 waiting for the underbelly to come. he skiped his last 4 classes to wait for them. he didn't really liked school that much. he hated it almost as much as his step father, Brad. "such an asshole" he spat at the though of him. Jimmy sighed and looked up at the mural on the side wall of the store. it said "Home is where the heart is". Jimmy laughed and said "yea right, who ever wrote that needs to find out that everyones heart doesn't beat the same" he sat down and wrote some more in his note book:
At the center of the earth in the parking lot
of the 7-11 where I was taught
the motto was a lie
it said home is where your heart is
but what a shame cuz everyones heart dosen't beat the same...
"you still can't stop writting in that book can't you" said Tunny behind him
"I was bored" Jimmy muttered "right... here you go" Tunny gave him a pack of cigarettes and a beer. after a few silent moments Jimmy spoke, "I hate this town"
" You and all the teens in this town" said Tunny. " I'm gonna run away... and its gonna be tonight" said Jimmy in a sort of daze. Tunny almost choked on his ciggeret. "what?! what you mean 'tonight'?" "I just want to leave. I can't stand my family any more or this town" said Jimmy "see you T". "hey! But wait! Your not going alone are you?" asked Tunny. "no..." said Jimmy "you comming with me, lets go!" The both went back to their houses, packed up left an note and ran away fron Jingle Town.
