Putting It Off And Putting It Off Lyrics

Oh, you’d think I would have learned by now
But no — I make the same mistake somehow
Time and time again

I’ve been doing it for days
Putting it off and putting it off
I’ve been doing it for ages

Oh, it’s always hanging over me
Like a bad dream not forgotten easily
Like a cartoon cloud above

I’ve been doing it for days
Putting it off and putting it off
As pointless as it is
I’ve been doing it for years
Putting it off and putting it off
I’ve been doing it for ages

Oh, you’d think I would have learned by now
But know I’ve been doing it for days
Putting it off and putting 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.
