Operating on a Re-Run Episode Lyrics

Pantone seventy one running parallel centered along the towns miles of perforated lines to stabilize just a couple more lives Its those tailgator that'll get to you beaverkill welcomes you it's exit 122 There is no turn on red construction lies ahead It's those tailgator that'll get to you it's green red and yellow but what about blue smell the morning dew filled with exhaust fumes spin the defroster put sirens on mute A summons doubled for the elderly my thermals are constricting my body There is no flow to the thinking module when contents are molded to form into rubber they are sometimes shaping into a brake pedal Creating this animated episode with a speed of 65 miles per hour the guardrails begin to create a story of their own from the accident casualties to the neglected strays they sure hold their own- Everywhere is just not here Just get off we're on the phone.

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.
