*** Lyrics

Bear: "Regina...Regina..."
Reg: "What?"
Bear: "When is that song gonna start?"
Reg: "Which song?"
Bear: "The song that goes like "Da na na na na na na na Danananana."
Reg: "Oh...it's gonna start in a minute. You just gotta wait."
Bear: "OK........ Regina! Start it already!!!"
Reg: "It's gonna start in a second, you just gotta wait! It's gonna start...NOW!!!"

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.

This song, when played directly from the CD, is a transition song going to "Your Honor". ***, also called "Whisper", is soft and whispering, talking about the song that goes Dananananan. and then "Your Honor" starts off screaming "I KISSED YOUR LIPS AND I TASTED BLOOD. Dananananananan." So it's supposed to be a fun, creative contrast between soft and loud. Regina has SUCH a musical talent, I love her.
