The Unconventional Lyrics

Take position
And love will take a stand
That is the way it goes
No inquisition
No cynical demands
No one should ever know

Because I'm dancing
Dancing to your heart
Dancing to your heart now baby
Oh what a way to start

Well I'm trying to find
All the love we discovered
That is the way it goes

No perversion
In this unconventional love
No way I'd rather see
No diversion
In this unintentional love
No way I'd rather be

Because I'm dancing
Dancing to your heart
Dancing to your heart now baby
Oh what a way to start

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.
