A Better Job Lyrics

Lets move, lets move to Brooklyn together
We'll both get internships at Mad Order records
And we'll get an apartment, they are so small
We'll only call it a part

One part you, one part me
We'll live in moderation in the NYC
Getting groceries and shopping for free
You and me and we

Oh, no, no
When you asked...
I said I was capable, not available
Oh, no, no
When you asked...
I said I was capable, not available

Someday I'll make an honest man out of you
Someday I'll make an honest man out of you
Someday I'll make an honest man out of you
Someday I'll make an honest man out of you

Lets move, lets move to Brooklyn together
We'll both get internships at Mad Order records
And we'll get an apartment, they are so small
We'll only call it a part

One part you, one part me
We'll live in moderation in the NYC
Getting groceries and shopping for free
Just you and me and we

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 really enjoy this song, though I thought it said "Matador" records rather than "Mad Order."
