Title of EP
The title Takers and Leavers is from a poem recited at the end of Livin' a Dream, the final track of the EP.
Well, I know there's always been greed and green acres, and war and peace makers. And then there's your takers and your leavers, your havers and your needers.
The poem was written by Dr. Dog's Scott McMicken.[3]

gollark: To reduce bias in government decision making we will use a random number generator for all major policy problems.
gollark: TO THE GULAG!
gollark: What if it's not a man, hmmmm?
gollark: We will laser-etch backup copies of important government data into picturesque parts of mountains.
