Sugar Lyrics

You can be white
I can be brown again
We have to go hide
'Cause your mother's in town again

And I wanna take you home
And I wanna take you back

I'm on the ground
You're in the air again
Releasing the hounds
You wanted a harlequin

And I wanna take you home
And I wanna take you back
And I wanna take you home
And I wanna take you back (Sugar sugar)
(Sugar sugar)

I'm cutting the wire (Sugar sugar)
There's nobody listening (Sugar sugar)
Slashing the tires (Sugar sugar)
Made you late for the christening (Sugar sugar)

And I wanna take you home
And I wanna throw you back
And I wanna take you home
And the screen just turns to black

It's hot, it's warm, it's cool, all right
I kiss, you take another bite
You said, "Just stay away from light"
Down here I'm not afraid of height

And I wanna take you home
'Cause I wanna take it back
And I wanna take you home
And the screen just turns to black (Sugar sugar)
(Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar
Sugar sugar)

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.
