Ugly Lyrics

don't come closer
it sure gets ugly
they'll buy your brain quick
and eat your money
your friends are different
there going places
they keep your secrets
and buy new faces

they're taking pictures too

hey hey

don't look closer
it sure gets bloody
it ain't 1960
when a cowboy's funny
they light a match up
its too bizarre too
try to patch up
why it bars you

why pretend its safe?

don't walk closer
it's way to ugly
its hard to stand up
when the kids are running
sure change your slogan
call your boyfriend
buy new dresses
or jump off the deep end

its hard to swim and fight

hey hey

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.

to me: about the bullshit/uglyness of the world and friendships and how societys uglyness rubs off on your friends and your friends get ugly. and its always changing:"sure change your slogan" we can give in:"call your boy friend, buy new dresses" or give up:"or jump off the deep end"

main point:"its hard to swin and fight"
