Bare Feet on Wet Griptape Lyrics

prehistoric flower on the windowsill getting hit by the sun
fluorescent cloud hanging overtop of you
you don't know what you're saying

how long can you be in pain
how long, ooh
how long can you be in pain
how long, ooh

bare feet on wet griptape i put it in the mail
i send it to my sister, i send it to my sister
tell her all my secrets, I tell her all my thoughts
i shake it like a tambourine, shake it like a bin
i do stupid drawing on the corner of a page
i love to watch it grow, i love to watch it go
everything is changing, and everything is strange
you spin it on your fingertip, you spin it on you ball

prehistoric flower on the windowsill getting hit by the sun
fluorescent cloud, hanging overtop of you, you don't know what you're saying

how long can you be in pain
how long, ooh
how long can you be in pain
how long, ooh

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.
