Paperback Lyrics

I wanna know everything about your life,
But I’m waiting for the paperback.
I wanna read all about how I survived,
But I know that you won’t mention that.
I’ll read about the person in the restaurant,
The one you used to crush my heart.

So put it in the pages of your bestseller
And pass it off as art.

I wanna know everything about your life,
But I’m waiting for the paperback.
I wanna read all about how I survived
But I know that you won’t mention that.
I’ll read about the person in the restaurant,
The one you used to crush my heart.

So put it in the pages of your bestseller
And pass it off as art.

Pass it off, pass it off, pass it off,
Pass it off, pass it off, pass it off…

I wanna know everything about your life,
But I’m waiting for the paperback.
I wanna read about how I survived,
But I know you won’t mention that.
I’ll read about the person in the restaurant,
The one you used to wreck my heart.

So put it in the pages of your bestseller
And pass it off as art.

Pass it off, pass it off, pass it off,
Pass it off, pass it off, pass it off…

But I’m waiting for the paperback.
I wanna read all about how I survived,
But I know that you won’t mention that.
I’ll read about the person in the restaurant,
The one you used to crush my heart.

So put it in the pages of your bestseller
And pass it off as art.

I wanna know everything about your life,
But I’m waiting for the paperback.
I wanna read all about how I survived
But  I know that you won’t mention that.
I’ll read about the person in the restaurant,
The one you used to crush my heart.

So put it in the pages of your bestseller
And pass it off as art.

Pass it off, pass it off, pass it off,
Pass it off, pass it off, pass it off…

I wanna know everything about your life,
But I’m waiting for the paperback.
I wanna read about how I survived,
But I know you won’t mention that.
I’ll read about the person in the restaurant,
The one you used to wreck my heart.

So put it in the pages of your bestseller
And pass it off as art.

Pass it off, pass it off, pass it off,
Pass it off, pass it off, pass it off…

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.
