Open Source song - "Write Code With You"

[Alex Beamish]

Hmm ..

  http://www.lyricsfreak.com/a/adam+sandler/grow+old+with+you_20003919.html

I would have to admit that the lyrics on that page do fit the chord
structure of Write Code With You pretty well. I was just doing a cover, so I
didn't think about whether or not I'd heard the song before.

I wonder if that counts as Fair Use.
