Over Your Shoulder Lyrics

Look over both your shoulder
And you might see what’s coming to you
I'm dreaming, daydreaming
Of things I never say or do
But I can do anything you put in front of me
Now the same goes true for you
I can take anything you put in front of me
Long as I'm in the mood
To waste my time, now

I sleep in the afternoon
I waste my time now
Looking for something new

Stop darling
Stop making all yourself
When things don’t look so good
I'm thinking I can’t stop thinking
Of things I never say or could
Cause I can do anything you put in front of me
Now the same goes true for you
I can take anything you put in front of me
Long as I'm in the mood
To waste my time, now

I sleep in the afternoon
I waste my time now
Looking for something new

I can’t do this
Its too much for me to handle
Oh yeah
Oh right

So look over of your shoulder
And you might see me

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.
