Rust Lyrics

The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll

What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done

I don't know what I want, but I want it now
Before we turn to dust
Before we turn to superstition
Before we turn to rust

The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll

What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done

I don't know what I want, but I want it now
Before we turn to dust
Before we turn to superstition
Before we turn to rust

What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done

The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll

What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done

I don't know what I want, but I want it now
Before we turn to dust
Before we turn to superstition
Before we turn to rust

The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll
The letching corpse of rock 'n' roll

What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done
What's done is done

I don't know what I want, but I want it now
Before we turn to dust
Before we turn to superstition
Before we turn to rust

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.

Just a collection of handy little lines, if you ask me. I think the band got a bit obsessed with the line 'What's done is done'...

I think a lotta rock songs are like this..more than people think...a band comes up with a good jam/melody and just write some nonsense lyrics around it (radio doesnt play instrumentals much, ya know)

Yeah, I meant that a lot of the artwork of the stuff around this time included the phrase 'What's Done Is Done', I think they even had it written on their speakers.
