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.
Because this is seemingly the only Smiths song where the awful and misinformed interpretation hasn't already been made, let me contribute:
This song is clearly a veiled reference to homosexuality.
[P.S. Mozzy wrote ambiguously for the sake of the audience, not for the sake of his sexuality]
This song is awesome! Its sad to think that their may have been other instrumental jams that never made it into one of their albums and is lost forever.
I Believe Oscillate Wildly is way better than this one. Money Changes Everything is not bad, but it lacks of impact. This dont happens whith Oscillate which is a pretty strong song, it really blew me up when I heard it and its one of my favourites songs by far.
wehey, first comment... actaully a dissapointment form the smiths... an instumental song obviously lacks lyrics, and to make up for it, it should be twice as catchy; lyk Oscilliate Willdly... Money Chnages Everything isn't half as catchy, and its a rather dead gap in 'The World Won't Listen' album
