My Bad Lyrics

i'm so afraid what could be wrong with me, to make you act the way you did tonight. did my breath smell? was there another guy, talked to you and treated you just right? i miss seeing you today. give me a reason why you stayed away.
i didn't mean to drop you off in El Cahon, you live in La Jolla oops my bad. now i'm stuck here spending Friday night alone watching' old boy movies with my dad. i miss seeing you today, give me a reason why you stayed away.

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.

It is...

"I didn't mean to drop you off in El Cajon, you live in La Jolla oops my bad"

I live close to both of those places, so I think thats correct.
