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.

Ummmmm... punk in drublic quotes... "In this track, the phrase "The whole thing I think is sick." is repeated many times. Most people think that it is the voice of number 8, however, it is a sample taken from a Charles Manson documentary.
The name of the track was taken from the barcode of Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat. "
I've just read the official SlipknoT biography, it's actually Corey, #8, saying "The whole thing I think is sick" sped up and slowed down. And as stated above, the barcode is that of the cd "MATE.FEED.KILL.REPEAT."
