Crying In My Beer Lyrics

What will it take to make you happy
what will it take to stop your whining
what will it take to make you amscray
what will it take to stop your crying
I know that you've been so bored since the Circle K closed down
so if it makes you feel a bit better just picture me
crying crying in my beer
I got a feeling you've been damaged
I think you've got way too much time on your hands
I throw away your stupid little letter
like Margie Whipple you don't get it
if you were a TV show baby you would've been cancelled
do to declining viewership recycled plots and bad acting
crying in my beer
it's pointless to wonder what life would be like with you and me
cause me minus you equals one less little parasite less
I'm crying in my beer

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.
