heyyy, ev'y body! guess what? this didn't come from CAUTION?! omg, right? believe it or not, this plot page was made by LARKIE of the wonderful sites GOD'S FINGERPRINTS and BRINLEY ACADEMY. never heard of them? go look them up 'cause they're ah-mazing. this took a lot of work, so you really shouldn't steal. but lark is a nice person, so you are welcome to ask her if you really like it. if you rip it though she'll cry. so let's just not do that, kay? now of course, as genius as she is, she did take inspiration from others so don't think she's that cool. and of course, she didn't write any of these magnificent lyrics. she got some help there from a bunch of nice musicians: THE BEETLES, JACK JOHNSON, RICK SPRINGFIELD, AND MATT RYAN, who all dropped by to sing for her while she worked on this. well, maybe not, but you believed me for a moment, didn't you? at least until you remembered half the beetles aren't even alive... oh, and do i really need to say i used COLORBLENDER? yeah, probably not. we all do.
