Then what's the point? Literally the shortest way is to hard-code it. That is, if you're not allowing us to use HTTPService.

print([[We're no strangers to lo####Y####now the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just want to tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you

#### if I can paste anything I want from somewhere and add a few functions to decode the string, I could make an algorithm to encode it into a far shorter string/code but it would take me some time to come up with an algorithm like that. |

^ The decompress function will use a lot of characters |

What about encoding the lyrics and then printing them after key phrases |

749, and I goofed up because [[]] trims line breaks -_-

The algorithm is greedy and doesn't look at already encoded strings, so it's really bad.

Are you not counting whitespace? Because you should. (Except those that can be removed but are good for readability.) |
