Circle Lyrics

Please don’t flow so fast

You little mountain hum

I’ll take a bottle down to you

Please don’t flow this fast

You hold a little hum

I’ll bottle sounds of me for you

Please don’t flow so fast

You little mountain din

I’ll bottle piano sounds from you

Please don’t flow so fast

You little mountain noise

I’ll close my eyes and bite your tongue

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.

Ok guys. This is either: a) A complete rip of a múm song. b) A remix.

It's from the Album Hooper Bay which is mega rare. However (and with creeping horror) I think the whole album is a fake.

Discuss.
