♬ WP Engine Affiliate Blues (Can't Prove I'm Innocent) ♬
Katie Pressly, The Pressmates

I got the WP Engine Affiliate Blues
Can't Prove I'm Innocent Man
I got the WP Engine Affiliate Blues
This is gettin out of hand

My hands getting tired
from checking all these boxes man

Verse 1:
Logged in to build, ready to go,
Then that checkbox hit me low.
“I’m not with WP, I swear it’s true,”
But now they’re askin', "What did you do?"

Pre-Chorus:
“Ever shared a meme or said their name?
Whispered ‘Engine’ in a game?”
I’m just here to click and submit,
But this form don’t give a shit

Chorus 1:
Got the WP Engine Affiliate Blues, stuck in a bind,
“Did you name your dog ‘Engine’? What’s on your mind?”
I’m clean, just let me through,
But this form don’t believe it’s true.

Verse 2:
Think I’m reppin' them at the fair?
Or hidin’ ads in my hair?
I’m here for WordPress, honest and clear,
But this form keeps pushin’ fear.

Chorus 2:
Got the WP Engine Affiliate Blues, won’t let me go,
“Baked a cake with their logo? Let us know!”
I’m tired, just let me be,
But this form’s got no faith in me.

Outro:
WP Engine Affiliate Blues,
It could happen to you,
The WP Engine Affiliate Blues.
