I would click my red heels together three times and say "21st Century Breakdown averted" and hey presto – averted! |

To help fuel our "21st Century Breakdown" we'd need a smattering of unleaded mixed with a splash of vodka... viva el Presidente |

It can't be averted but could be fixed with a 22nd century pick up truck. |

How would I avert a 21st Century Breakdown?
Well, I would adopt a 'V for Vendetta' type approach to prevent it.
I would be a masked crusader, a hero, you could even say a disciple "spreading the good news".
Tuning into every television, computer and radio in the world (somehow ), I would play endless amounts of Green Day songs, videos and other footage over and over again.
After all, if these very hard working, yet fun, family men that express exactly what they think without fear (eg. 'Platypus I Hate You' - Nimrod album) and aren't afraid to stand up for what they believe in ('American Idiot' - American Idiot album) cannot be a good example for the future, who can be?
Green Day changed my life from becoming a breakdown, and I know that they can inspire and change this entire century to come out of a breakdown |

I'd convince everyone to rock out to Green Day with me, and then they'd be so distracted from their daily woes that all thoughts of breaking down would be banished from their minds. Crisis averted. |

I would avert a 21st Century Breakdown by playing more music from the 20th century |

I'd make it compulsory for primary school children to study Green Day on a daily basis for after all the children are our future and Green Day is their future. |

Well, turn back the clock about a decade and the simplest solution would be to assassinate Bush... but now we're pretty much screwed... |

I would make sure that everyone on the planet went 'Green' for Green Day. I would then declare a world holiday in honour of Green Day and make all music besides Green Day banned for the day. While listening to the music people would be encouraged to start saving the planet- by planting trees, recycling etc. Thus preventing a 21st Century Breakdown and all future breakdowns! |

The steps to avoiding a 21st Century Breakdown are as follows:
1) You would obviously have to start by getting 'Dubya' out of the White House, after we kill Sadam so that Bush can say he did one thing good for the world.
2) We could destroy Afganistan in a fit of 'eye for an eye' revenge.
3) I'd probably give everybody a big fat 'stimulus'.
4) Then I'd teach GreenDayology in schools as an essential life skill.
Well if they would just listen to me about number four the world would be beautiful!
21st Century Breakdown avoided! |

Change the US anthem to 'American Idiot' and revel in the sheer irony of it all. Go into all schools around the world and play 'Holiday' over the loudspeakers, thereby releasing the students from their day to day misery for good. To cover the economy, crush all poor quality music albums and singles, use them to pave major roads (allowing Green Day listeners to travel from one place to another easier and spread the word of Green Day goodness) and sack heads of all the world's major corporations, re-appointing Billie Joe Armstrong to rule all as a grand overlord. Tre Cool would be assigned the position of new US president, and Mike Dirnt would be employed to monitor the White House playlist, blasting out boss Green Day tunes all day to get everyone in a good mood. After these steps have been taken to alleviate said '21st Century Breakdown', we can proceed safely and calmly to the 22nd century, where the three Green Day members will be century-old wizards, refreshing pop punk will be a radio staple and Lady GaGa CDs will make up the Pacific Highway (which will be renamed 'Road to Acceptance', and take 1039 hours to drive). |

I'd develop a music muster team who takes all anti-music animals to the back of the line. |

I'd get Green Day to sing a new song called Averting the 21st Century Breakdown. Everyone would listen to the song and everything will be good again |

Well.... hmmm lets see...
the breakdown is happening because some people want what others have and are getting pissed off about it right? like money? oil? freedom? that stuff everyone kinda takes for granted... what if I had the power to give everyone an ipod and pre-load it with such rocking songs as those the boys from GD have spat out over the past two-and-a-bit decades so that everyone could at least just rock out if they felt jealous of others... hmmm i'd probably have to change some laws and religions about allowing rock music won't i... well... so be it... if god hands you lemons... find a new god!.... or president lol
you guys rock! |

I would stare that breakdown in the face and say 'peep the steez fakedown. There's two ways we can do this, my way or my way, and they both involve me booting you through the backdoor. Toodlepip'. |
