Short Notice Lyrics

I said I wanna see you
I really meant I wanna leave you
I said I wanna touch you
I really meant I wanna punch you
I said I wanna kiss you
I'm never gonna miss you

If you had a clue you would never stay
If I told the truth I would have to say
We're going round, round, round

Short notice - and now it's time to go
Misguided - shot down when you didn't know
Short notice - and now it's time to go

I said I wanna feel you
I really meant I wanna kill you
I said I couldn't refuse you
I really meant I should've used you
I said, I wanna love you
I really am above you

If you had a clue you would never stay
If I told the truth I would have to say
We're going round, round, round

Short notice - and now it's time to go
Misguided - shot down when you didn't know
Short notice - and now it's time to go

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.

This song has a very nervous energy vibe to it, you know, somewhat like the Bollocks maybe?
