Speech; spoken by Jack in the linked show, with F5 played repeatedly throughout the "speech":
Alright, this is the last verse of the last song of the night
Hey, hey
This verse is about myself, and I'm sorry about that
But it's ok, when I'm done singin' it I hope every one of you here
Will sing along with me and my sister on "He's lookin' for a home," ok?
Then you'll be happy, I'll be happy, and Lord knows Meg'll be happy
