Richard Lyrics

I don't care about you
don't you pretend I do
Talk your shit words
live your life/death
You may have been real
but I'm not sure
I saw you on the bus
I was filled with disgust

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The drummer Molly Neuman sings on this song. It's about a guy who did something really bad to you and left you broken hearted. I wonder if the guy who she was going out with was actually named Richard. That's pretty bold to name the song after him, if you think about it. Yet, it's funny. Bratmobile rocks.

If the man's name isn't Richard, then maybe she thinks he's a dick, which is derived from Richard.
