I grew up loving the Fleetwood Mac song "Don't Stop" and saw the potential for another Pinkie Pie-based parody. Much like the original song, this one just carries a super happy and joyous energy along with it. This was one of those songs where digging these tracks back up blew my mind with how differently I recorded things back then.
lyrics
I’d like for you to meet a friend of mine
She’ll show you how you can really shine
Don’t go thinking it’s real hard to do
It’s a reason to never feel blue
Just smile every single day and night
Just smile, it’ll lift you up
It’s the best advice she can give
So trust Pinkie Pie, trust Pinkie Pie
Happiness isn’t too far away
It doesn’t cost any bits to stay
There’s no reason for you to be shy
Why don’t you come on and give it a try?
Just smile every single day and night
Just smile, it’ll lift you up
It’s the best advice she can give
So trust Pinkie Pie, trust Pinkie Pie
All I had to do was show a smile
And that alone made it all worthwhile
I owe it all to that pink pony
Won’t you come and share this joy with me?
Just smile every single day and night
Just smile, it’ll lift you up
It’s the best advice she can give
So trust Pinkie Pie, trust Pinkie Pie
Just smile every single day and night
Just smile, it’ll lift you up
It’s the best advice she can give
So trust Pinkie Pie, trust Pinkie Pie
Ohh, show us your smile
Ohh, show us your smile
Ohh, show us your smile
Ohh, show us your smile
