Set Me Up Lyrics

A penny saved is a love that's lost A love that's mailed at any cost You ask how much I put in and just how much can I pretend I want every ounce of every stitch I want every gram of every wish I want 2 of every girl that I know I want 2 of everything right after the show

I want every piece, every line, every sound 'cuz I'm way out of time I'm caught in the same old trap again, I'm tired of being hurt again.

Enough around or the time that spend It takes 3 weeks for me to see what you live into If we're 600 miles and I was away you can expect me anew with another date

I want every piece, every line, every sound 'cuz I'm way out of time I'm caught in the same old trap again, I'm tired of being hurt again.

You came to my room and took pictures of me. Because I thought I was a king of DC.

I'm caught in the same old trap again, I'm tired of being hurt again.

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.
