Latchmere [Non Single Version] Lyrics

swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming
just stay in your lanes
swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming
just stay in your lanes

no bombing and no heavy petting
so just stay in your lanes
no bombing and no heavy petting
so just stay in your lanes

madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles x8

latchmeres got a wave machine

came out of the changing room
and absolutely nothing had changed
so i stayed in your lane
came out of the changing room
and absolutely fuck all had changed
so i stayed in your lane

speed up, speed by x 3
so i stayed in your lanes

speed up, speed by
speed up, speed by
speedo, speed boy
speed up, speed by
speed up, speed by
speedo, speed boy
speed up, speed by
speed up, speed by

speed up, speed by
speedo, speed boy
madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles x8

latchmeres got a wave machine

stay in your lanes
stay, in your lanes
just stay, stay in your lanes
just stay, just stay in your lanes

latchmeres got a wave machine

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.
