My Neck, My Back Lyrics

I'm a gonna get my worker's comp check
I'm a gonna buy you lobster food
I'm a gonna drop some bricks on my head
I'm a gonna be laid up for good

My neck, my back
My neck and my back hurt
I had another accident
Someone tell the management

I'll be in my kiddie pool
Recovering, I'll get my tools
Another time if my spine ever realigns

My neck, my back, my neck and my back
And I never will recover and I never will recover and I never will recover and I never will recover yeah!

Compassionate society
Has a whole variety
Of safety nets and benefits
For anyone that's ever been a victim of negligence
Stress, fatigue or recklessness
Offer me a sentiment
Just offer me a sentiment

Cuz I gotta stay at home
My neck and back is nearly broke
I kind of won the lottery
I'll take what they are offering
Vicodine and Ambien
And watch a lot of television

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.

I got in a car accident and messed up my back. So now I get paid and don't have to work. It's pretty sweet, the song speaks the truth.
