This song was, of course, inspired by the old Christmas carol "The Twelve Days Of Christmas." We just slapped this fellow together during two half-lunch periods and came up with a great experience and memory. Sometimes when I sit back and look at what the group is doing right in that moment, I realize that so much of what we do and talk about is so nerdy and sometimes just plain ridiculous. The things we get involved with, the things we end up caring about. But everything is so special. And this is what we will always remember.

Here is the breakdown for what all of the different items/memories in the song mean. :)
