Music Video for Storymakers Lyrics Contest: OH MY

I can finally post it! First, the link to the original iconic music video is here. The link to the parody starring a bunch of goofy and amazingly talented writers is here.

FICTION (Freedom, George Michael)

I might write it down
I might make it up
Gotta move the words all around
I’ll take my chances with this plot
I might write it down
I might make it up
‘Cause I would really really love to be contract-bound, oh yeah

Heaven knows I was just a young kid
Didn’t know what I wanted to be
I was every high school English teacher’s pride and joy
But it wasn’t quite enough for me
To win the race, a well-timed pace
A seamless plot and my MC’s face
On an ad for a Whitney
But the reason why I write this way is not the same
No way                                                      
You can think of it as therapy

I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
I’ve got these voices in my head
You should be careful where you tread
I just hope you understand
Sometimes your lives end up in my hands.

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
what might be lies to you
Are real enough to me yeah yeah
Fiction,
Fiction,
Fiction,
Be careful what you say
Fiction,
Fiction,
Fiction,
Be careful what you say

Heaven knows we sure have some fun, boy
What a kick, just my hero and me
We have every angst-filled villain bent on the run, boy
yes we’re living in a fantasy
finding romance
taking a chance
solving crime with a second glance
at my double-you-I-P
And the way I play the game ain’t gonna change
No way
Yeah, you can call it therapy

I think there's something you should know
I think it’s time the world should know
There's something deep inside of me
There’s someone else I’ve got to be
I’ve got these voices in my head
You should be careful where you tread
I just hope you understand
Sometime your lives end up in my hands

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
what might be lies to you
are real enough to me, yeah yeah
Fiction
Fiction
Fiction
Be careful what you say
Fiction
Fiction
Fiction
Be careful what you say

Well it looks like the road to published
but it feels like it never ends
I submitted in the summer
now the snow is making the trees bend
Imagine my book signing
Going through a million pens
But if I get that far
Chances are
I’ll get put next to Mary Higgins Clark

That's what you get,
That's what you get,
That's what you get,
I say that's what you get
That's what you get for playing in your mind
That's what you get for playing in your mind

That's what you get,
That's what you get,
And after all this time
I just hope you understand
Sometimes your lives end up in my hands

All we have to do now is take these lies
And make them true somehow
All we have to see is what might be lies to you
are real enough to me yeah yeah
Fiction,
Fiction,
Fiction,
Be careful what you say
Fiction,
Fiction,
Fiction,
Be careful what you say
Be careful what you careful what you say

be careful what you say to me
it may end up in my mystery
what you say now
I’ve got to write I’ve got to write
