"it seems like everything i do
is getting imprinted on you
and my bad
am i good at being bad is all i'm good at?
every secret seems to make me move back

and i feel that you've had enough
and my bad vibes always rubbing off
causing pain like i attacked you
but you know i got your back

and i feel that you've had enough
and my bad vibes always rubbing off
causing pain like i attacked you
but you know i got your back

i will tell you everything
everything you want to know
cuz i put you through the same hell again

and i feel that you've had enough
and my bad vibes always rubbing off
causing pain like i attacked you
but you know i got your back"

[Chorus: cat.flp]
Rosy cheeks, you taste so sweet
Like sprinkles on top
Stay with you, you'll stay with me
The rain to my drop
Listen to the pitter patter
On the housetop
Stay with you, you'll stay with me
The rain to my drop

[Post-chorus: cat.flp]
Na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na
Na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na
Na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na
Na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na

[Verse: cat.flp]
Knocking on my windowsill
And who could it be?
A girl with rain soaked purple hair
A jacket to her knees
Come play outside, it's storming out
It's not even that bad
I know it's cold but just be bold
There's much fun to be had

[Hook: cat.flp]
Rosy cheeks, you taste so sweet
Like sprinkles on top
Stay with you, you'll stay with me
The rain to my drop
Listen to the pitter patter
On the housetop
Stay with you, you'll stay with me
The rain to my drop

[Chorus: cat.flp]
Rosy cheeks, you taste so sweet
Like sprinkles on top
Stay with you, you'll stay with me
The rain to my drop
Listen to the pitter patter
On the housetop
Stay with you, you'll stay with me
The rain to my drop

[Post-chorus: cat.flp]
Na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na
Na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na
Na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na
Na, na na, na na, na na
Na na, na na, na

come play in the rain! (acoustic version)

"Whatever It Takes" is a narrative concept album based on the true story of the 2019 eBay cyberstalking scandal - when a Fortune 500 company's security team launched a coordinated terror campaign against two bloggers who wrote critical coverage.

Ina and David Steiner ran EcommerceBytes, a small newsletter covering e-commerce from their home in Natick, Massachusetts. When Ina wrote about CEO Devin Wenig's compensation, he texted his Chief Communications Officer Steve Wymer: "If we are ever going to take her down..now is the time."

Wymer's responses became evidence:

> We are going to crush this lady
> She is biased troll who needs to get BURNED DOWN
> I want to see ashes. As long as it takes. Whatever it takes.

What followed was a "campaign of terror" - seven eBay security employees (including former police captains) sent bloody pig masks, a preserved fetal pig, live cockroaches and spiders, a funeral wreath, a book about surviving the death of a spouse, and porn magazines to the couple. They posted Craigslist ads inviting strangers to the Steiners' home. They flew from California to Boston to stalk their car and planned to break into their garage to plant a GPS tracker. They carried fake "Person of Interest" documents. One even pretended to rescue them - the "White Knight Strategy."

David photographed a license plate. The FBI got involved. All seven employees were convicted.

But the executives who gave the orders? The CEO walked away with $57 million in severance. Never charged.

This is a story about corporate power, surveillance turned against citizens, and the two-tier justice system.
