Good Moanin' Lyrics

Somebody's knocking
Knocking on my door
I'm so worried
Don't know what I'm worried for

Somebody's knocking
Knocking on my door
I'm so worried
Lord I don't know what I'm worried for

Somebody's calling
Calling on the phone
Tell 'em keep on calling
Tell 'em I'm not home

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.

I think this goes a little deeper than paranoia from smoking to generalized anxiety disorder, or at least that's been my experience with doork knocking and phone calls :)

Obviously, this is about a dude getting stoned at his house and he is paranoid because people are knocking on his door and calling his phone. He just wants to be left alone and toke it up.
