[first lines]
Alvin (singing voice) Alvin (singing voice), Simon (singing voice), Theodore (singing voice): [a capella] Where is the moment we needed the most/You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost/They tell me your blue skies fade to gray/They tell me your passion's gone away/And I don't need no carryin' on/Cause you had a bad day/You're taking one down/You sing a sad song just to turn it around/You say you don't know/You tell me don't lie/You work at a smile and you go for a ride/You had a bad day/You've seen what you like/And how does it feel for one more time/You had a bad day/You had a bad day/

Simon And it's gone.
Alvin [from inside the tree] Whatever!
Theodore Maybe we should take a break.
[an acorn hits him on the head]
Theodore Ouch!
Alvin That's it! I can't take this anymore! I can't! I give up! I'm sick of struggling for survival! Competing with gophers and earthworms, and that loser sparrow who always takes my nuts! And I'm especially sick of this stupid, stupid... *tree!*

Ian Let's talk about your song, Dave.
David Seville Well, as crazy as it sounds, the original inspiration came to me...
Ian The song sucks, Dave.
Ian Your song, it's awful, I hate it. Yeah, I mean, who's gonna sing it? Justin? Fergie? Not a chance. Come on, I need something new, something fresh...
David Seville But that is new.
Ian The next big thing. Dave, we go way back. We both come a long way since college. You, not so much. I wanted to like that song, but, you heard it... not that good. If I wasn't your friend, I'd say, "Dave, you go right back out of this office and you keep writing music, you'll get there someday." But I am your friend, so I'm going to tell you that there is no sense in writing songs that no one is ever, ever, going to sing.

Ian Oh... you had a nightmare? I had a nightmare too. In my nightmare, I had to put together 37 dates in 42 days, in 16 countries. And, I had to coordinate 121 radio and print interviews in 5 different languages.
Ian [picks up Theodore] And you know what Theo, the only difference is, in my nightmare, when I open my eyes, it doesn't end!

[he flips the front board down to the first board with Size of Theodore's butt written overtop]
Amy The size of Theodore's butt?
David Seville Yeah. Well, wh-why don't we come back to that. Anyway, 10 years ago, the market share for healthy food snacks was imperceptible among six-to-12-year-olds.
[flips next board with How smart Simon thinks he is written overtop]
Ted How smart Simon thinks he is.
Gail Yeah, as opposed to how smart he actually is.
Amy Who's Simon?

Alvin [sucks air from a balloon and speaks in a low voice] major rockstars!
David Seville Okay, whatever. Well, my point is, just because you're...
Alvin [low voice] major rockstars!
David Seville [releases balloon from Alvin's hand and sits down again] ... doesn't mean that you can have or do whatever you want!
Simon Well, Uncle Ian said that we should always be happy.
David Seville Okay, you know what? He's not your uncle!
[pulls the balloons down from the ceiling fan]
Alvin He also, David, said that we should be making 20 dollars a day.
David Seville Well, guess what? You're making way more than that. And because I care, I'm putting it all away for you, just like storing nuts for the winter.
Alvin Ah, winter's for losers!
Simon Yeah. And shouldn't we be having our say on how to build our investment portfolio?
David Seville Where is all this coming from? You guys are just kids.
Alvin Kids, Dave... or rats?
