Not Tonight Lyrics

Not Tonight- Gather ‘round. Brace yourself. The drama queen of the scene will steal the show. Silk and lace doll face wouldn’t know the curtain has been drawn. She’s lined against the wall with the other whores. Not tonight, you can pick and choose any time until you’re under the light. Please take your positions as she recites her life from the top. You know there won’t be an intermission. Just applaud until she tells you to stop. Name on list, stamp on wrist, pushing through for one final encore. She’s back for more. We all end up as dust so sing it if you must.

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.
