What's What Lyrics

the boat floats in the water
the sharks fins circle round
the fishes smelling blood now
i think we're gonna need a bigger boat

the blood excites the fishes
it smells from miles around
black eyes and blacker hearts yeah
i think we're gonna need a bigger boat

[Chorus:]
creepy people from the line up front
you wanna get your cut i am gonna tell you all what's what
you think you're slick you'll fin yourself cut
you know i never front i am gonna tell you all what's what
you wanna eat me like feeding frenzy
you think i am easy i am gonna tell you all what's what
creepy people keep your mouth shut
i am gonna bust your gut i am gonna tell you all what's what

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.
