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 just remember the first time i heard this i thought... BATMAN!!! Starting around second 34 of the song... Never seen the film Yellow Sub yet but i almost feel like i know it just from hearing the music for it

I remember watching this movie a young child. I interpreted the trippiness as just silliness, but the powerful classical music and rock made a big impression on me.
Big Blue Meanies made a particular impression on me...the march pace, the impending doom, etc. When my family bought the album, I played the whole thing several times...especially BBM.
And the thing I learned the most was that meanies are really just like us, just so bitter they attack what they think they can't join. A real self-image problem. Thus there really is no evil people...just evil behavior based on warped belief systems.
