Is it still plagiarism if i combine them?

by Kristi Paik

I'm holding my last twenty,

Down at the corner discount liquor store.

It's a "quick fix" recipe,

And "the basics" are not basic for me,

Tonight we drink to youth, and hold fast to truth

Love hurts, and sometimes itÂ’s a good hurt

Cause it makes you feel alive

My heart has a beat

But now has a feet

Is there a spell im under

Keeping me from seeing the real thing

And you know sometimes words have two meanings

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven

Yes there are two paths you can go by

but in the long run

There's still time to change the road you're on

When I was an alien, cultures weren't opinions

Come as you are, as you were

As I want you to be

We're only gonna die for our own arrogance,

that's why we might as well take our time

Very creative Kristi- meshing the songs worked. As I read it, i thought some of it sounded quitee familiar. Thanks for the clerification in the author's notes.
