All By Myself Lyrics

I don't want to talk too much
I just want to get to you
I don't want to see you there
I just want to get you there

All by myself
Not everybody else

I don't need no wedding hall
I just watch your rollerball
Forget your friends and what they do
I got to get inside of you

I don't need society
To open up my life for me
I don't need no audience
To shoot you in my cunning sense

I don't think you understand
What's that dripping in your hand
All the things you thought you do
You finally met your Waterloo

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 don't need no audience To shoot you in my cunning sense

I always thought these lines read "I don't need no homonyms - shoot you with my cummin' sense!"

Either way this song is fantastic. It has to have one of the coolest, most menacing riffs ever.

I thought it was "common sense".
