Questionable Observations Lyrics

Corsets
(I just can't get enough of)
Glasses
(I just can't get enough of)
Pretty redheads
I just can't get enough of
Phillip (K.) Dick and

Fame
(just can't get any)
Money
(Just can't get any)
thing I want
Just can't get any
Proper work done

And I dunno, and I dunno
Why the people who bore you
And I dunno, and I dunno
Always seem to adore you

And I dunno, and I dunno
Why I can't find traces
And I dunno, and I dunno
Of interest in other faces

So shocking, So shocking
The way you've been talking
I somehow expected to be - naked
You should know
I could be great
If I cared enough to get my act straight

Now is it you speaking
Or have you been drinking
Too much to be able to say - Go away!
First I must give
a word of warning
I'll feel worse than you in the morning

Recognition
(Just can't get any)
Souvenirs
(Just can't get any)
Pats in the back
Just can't get any
Undeserved compliments

And I dunno, and I dunno
Why I'm so much more than them
And I dunno, and I dunno
Yet they're so ahead of me

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.
