Rusty Rake Lyrics

Birds eat worms
Pigs eat turd
If ever I say a discouraging word
Slash my face with a rusty rake
It will be something that I deserve

It's not like I live on the street
It's not like I live in a war zone
It's not like I can't afford to eat
It's not like I don't have a home

Birds eat worms
Pigs eat turd
If ever I say a discouraging word
Slap my face with a salmon steak
Got no real reason to bitch & complain

It's not like I live on the street
It's not like I live in a war zone
It's not like I can't afford to eat
It's not like I don't have a home

It's not like I live on the street
It's not like I live in a war zone
It's not like I can't afford to eat
It's not like I don't have a home

Slash my face with a rusty rake
Slash my face with a rusty rake

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.
