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 would like to hope you didn't that, they sound simply "technoey"? are you out of your mind? they have some of the most complex songs in all of electronic music. they have been at the forefront of experimental electronic for years and haven't made a techno album since the early nineties.

This song is about cadets that have entered the bass industry in a state of confusion and don't understand what's going on.
Basscadet - A play on the word "Spacecadet"
Most Autechre tracks really don't mean anything, and simply just sound "technoey"

and to say the their songs don't mean anything is also ridiculous, however they may not mean anything to you...
Actually I agree. Songs don't need words to have "meaning". You can take what you like from them.
I always thought the line was: Y'all don't have any idea about what's goin' on
If so that would completely change the meaning of the song.
