So Negative Lyrics

All hands on deck and off my neck
Mutiny plagues, my ship has been wrecked
This hook is bloody from tearing out the throats
Of traitors like you who poison my boat

(And I say)
Why are you so negative?
Your anger needs a sedative
All I wanna do is live
So why are you so goddamned negative?

This man overboard will call on your lord
To welcome you home when I’ve settled the score
Drunk on the venomous wine of disdain
Stupid and dizzy, you vomit my name

Why are you so negative?
Your anger needs a sedative
All I wanna do is live
So why are you so goddamned negative?

It’s gonna get ugly and unholy
You better look away
I’m gonna get ugly and unholy
When I get my way
Over your crew of lies the Jolly Roger flies
I’ll sink my dagger into your one good eye

Why are you so negative?
Your anger needs a sedative
I just wanna fucking live
So tell me, tell me
Why are you so negative?
Your anger needs a sedative
All I wanna do is live
So why are you so goddamned negative?

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.
