Modsquadrophenia Lyrics

Thought I was strong, turned out I was wrong, I lost a friend, three on a match again.
Three on a match again, looks like I lost a friend; I'll never go three on a match again.
(Yeah)
Three on a match again, looks like I lost a friend; I'll never go three on a match again.
When we were young, and glitter rock was done, we played guitars, small spiders from mars
Three on a match again, looks like I lost a friend; I'll never go three on a match again.
I'm drinkin hard cuz this ain't easy, wakin up with my best friend's girl
I want to go, I feel so sleazy is that what they said, what they said now
I feel this woman around me, to fill this empty need, but I know I've got to go
Hey baby with this book a matches strike one and burned all three
Well I know I've got to learn, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me,
Please forgive me.

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.

I wish I understood this shit about matches. Things like devils on matchsticks or match heads. Perhaps this has something do with that or perhaps he's referring to... I don't know, cigarettes? One match, three cigarettes? I have no fucking idea, seriously. I need help here.

'Three on a match', as I just learned last night, is an old superstition from WWI: it was said that if three soldiers lit their cigarettes with one match, one of them would die. So, obviously, it's considered to be bad luck to do so.
