Jeffrey Lee Lyrics

Star struck like a gong
screaming like a choir
setting everything on fire
bleached black and blue
a beaten blond.
There but for the grace of God
here I come.
The fire of love
is burning me
the fire of love
won't let me be.
Steal it like a toy
give it like a gift
drink this down
it's a catalyst.
Punks, Skins and Latin Kings
all call you brother.
The Devil don't let you age gracefully
but the angels never even spoke to me
give me one great moment
one epiphany.
Oh you'll have one
Jeffrey Lee.

Poor old Jeffrey Lee.

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.
