m (moved The System Is Down (song) to The System is down (song) over redirect: But for the record, I do think some of these capitalizations look silly. Like this one. Though that's not the fault of anyone on this Wiki.) |
(→Lyrics: A fun fact mentions Dooj's, so why can't they been in the lyrics, and why not include the other sound effects while i'm at it?) |
