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.
Does this actually have any meaning behind it with regards to the plot? The length of it suggests that a few years have passed between The Acid Queen and Do You Think It's Alright?, but does it mean anything else?
Hey mainxzibit6789,
Why don't you actually do some research before you make a blatant statement. This song has been performed many times live and is even released on the 30 years Max RnB album set. I don't know whether it is ignorance or stupidity, but either way, your wrong.

This is about Tommy's reaction to the acid given by the acid queen. It takes a long time to wear off, supposedly, and I imagine his parents were very unhappy.
it's an underture, its Townsends way of trying to incorporate Operatic elements into the album, its more of a reminiscent flashback, so the Acid Queen could have helped in some way

excellent instrumental, especially at woodstock

I think this instrument represents an acid trip after a visit by the Acid Queen. But the theory that it represents passing time works as well.

I don't know whether it is ignorance or stupidity, but either way, you used the wrong 'your/you're'.
