Worn Out Welcome Lyrics

Opportunity knocks/And I'm waiting/Been waiting for sometime/Patiently waiting/Thanks for knocking but keep in mind/Idolized and Patronized/Pardon my heroic cry/This might not be the right way/But I've got to say so long thanks again/And I'll see you soon/The effort was appreciated/And I'm glad that I could make it/You'll never know what it means to me/Keep your favors/I'm not in doubt/But somehow/My welcome wore out

Don't want to be your charity case/I'll keep my space/I never struck out/But I never got on base/With the best of friends/The good times never end/No need to try/These words I live by

Thank you for your time/I'll be on my way/It's not about pride/But it's all that I can take

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.
