things with me

weren't very nice and you took shrimp

from the village kittens i'm sorry

and why would you believe such a thing

i was mad at him he was supposed to be

doing stuff with me not you

we can help stop the rumor from

spreading i'll tell everyone that i made

it all up

i made this for the children for the

festival

work i feel just so silly that we rush

to so many conclusions

anything before making up everything

i never meant to ignore you

it wasn't right

but you know i do have my own friends i

can't do everything with you

i don't want to do everything with you

just the fun stuff
