Drag Lyrics

i was standing right there when she let go
i was begging you please but you still said no
i was washing my hair
you were washing your hands of the whole affair
what a drag you let me down
took my back and you're not around
once in a while
once in a while
bet i'd lose it's on my mind
bet i'd lose it's on my mind
here i go
here i go again
wont hold my breath while i wait you
i could hold my breath until i fucking puke
but here i go
here i go again

you're not stupid now
you've got something to find a little
you've got soemthing to say, then say it
kinda hard to say
just what i mean
once in a while
once in a while
what a drag you let me down
you took my back and you're not around
once in a while
once in a while
you're not stupid now
you've got something to find a little
you've got soemthing to say, then say it
not not not..
what a drag you let me down
you took my back and you're not around
once in a while
once in a while
here i go about to let you down
here i go about to let you down
here i go 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.

That's also how I heard of this band, lol. Although it got pretty old when they played that song constantly, I thought I was gonna flip if I heard "Once in a while!" one more time! But it's still a great song. I got there latest album Center of The Earth and Meijer the other week, EXCELLENT!
