Alexa is a band geek who wants to prove to everyone that she has a cooler side. Alexa wants to MADE into a rocker chick and win her school's Battle of the Bands competition.
Alexa's MADE coach is Frank of the band, Waltham. Having opened for bands like KISS, Frank's definitely the guy to help Alexa win. First, he makes Alexa say, "I'm a bad a** rocker" repeatedly until it's convincing.
Frank's next assignment to help Alexa come out of her shell proves to be more uncomfortable. She has to stand in front of the class and tell her classmates that she thinks they're fake. They respect her honestly.
Later, Alexa writes a song but reluctantly reveals that the song is about an ex-boyfriend. Revealing this secret causes Alexa to break down and cry. Frank emphasizes that for a song to have impact, the songwriter has to reveal something.
After putting together a band, Alexa meets her idol, singer Liz Phair. Liz likes the melody of Alexa's song, and advises her to make it really come to life. Newly inspired, Alexa plays the guitar and names her band, Fair Fight.
Fair Fight comes in second place in the Battle of the Bands contest, but Alexa still feels like a star. She's been MADE into a rocker!
'Teenage Calamity' by Alexa
A trainwreck a calamity
Why does this feel so new to me?
I could've sworn I've been here before
Am I on the edge of something more?
And I cant get up if you're pulling me down
Once I'm down you're off and running
You're running away
There you go
Now you're gone
Don't try and tell me I'm the one that's wrong.
Put me on a pedestal
your goddess for an hour
but you have all the power to tear me down
Aftermath
So sublime
Flash a smile
Yes I'm fine
Lying again
But what's it to you
You don't listen enough
To distinguish what's true
So go and get your running start
Keep us apart
We're better that way
Thank you
For your betrayal and lies
Thank you
For avoiding my eyes
I've been spent
I've been used
But it's nothing to you
And I suppose it's nothing to me
Just a day in the life of a teenage calamity
Juat a day in the life
Of a teenage calamity
