Malfunction Lyrics

I just can't get through to you Despite all the ways I try or any of the things I do Maybe I'd be better off talkin to a wall Cause you ain't making any sense at all I'm walkin and I'm talkin and I'm tryin and I'm lyin But I just ain't getting through to you I'm walkin and I'm talkin and I'm tryin and I'm lyin But I just ain't getting through to you Am I just wastin, just wasting all my precious time Cause I ain't wastin a breath on you or any of your kind If you had any brains you would open your mind But I guess you're juts afriad of what you're gonna find It's a malfunction

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.

More like Cro(ssover)-Mags. They're still cool though.
