Chutes And Lasers Lyrics

I can tell by the way you shake your hands
It's like an icebox in here
And I can see your breath

And the way that the bright lights hit her face
It sends the boys into fear
Yeah, she can drive them wild

How we gonna be ourselves again
When I can never let this night life end
I can see her start to whisper to her friends
They never told you

Don't stand too close to me now
'Cause I am contagious
Don't stand too close to me now
'Cause I am contagious

I can tell by the way you move your feet
It's like a dance floor in here, and I can see your breath
And the way that the bright lights hit her face
It sends the boys into fear
Yeah, she can drive them wild

How we gonna be ourselves again
When I can never let this night life end
I can see her start to whisper to her friends
They never told you

Don't stand too close to me now
'Cause I am contagious
Don't stand too close to me now
'Cause I am contagious

And I can see your breath

Don't stand too close to me now
'Cause I am contagious
Don't stand too close to me now
'Cause I am contagious
Don't stand too close to me now
'Cause I am contagious
Don't stand too close to me now
'Cause I am contagious

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.
