The music video starts off with a number of high school students preparing to take an exam in a large hall, which contains a stage. Just as they turn over their papers and begin writing, the teacher in charge, Mr McGarry, is told over the intercom to come to the headmaster's office. Mr McGarry says that he will be back in five minutes (around the length of video) and tells everyone to stay in their seats in silence. As soon as he leaves, one boy starts hitting his desk with a ruler and after a few seconds everyone else does the same on their own desks.
