More To Come Lyrics

The fish are flying in the county sea
The cops are searching for a missing pea
And Billy Burroughs, is he still on the nod?
Be with the girl if I'm not a dandy guy
But be assured that if this shaking world
Is sucked into the sun

More to come
More to come
And when the seventh day at last is gone
More to come
More to come

The ladies sure looked like they're craving for me
But ain't that just what they're supposed to be
I hear the man is moving in next door

The boys will have to use the second floor
You might have answers I can understand
But I know only one

More to come
More to come
And when the seventh day at last is gone
More to come
More to come

The kids have torn a yellow packet apart
Ain't that enough to break a rich mans heart
I see the rats have found the cradle again
I'll let you know if I remember when
There's one conclusion that I must defend
It's where we started from

More to come
More to come
And when the seventh day at last is gone
More to come
More to come

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.
