Adelaide Lyrics

Im in love with Adelaide
But I shouldn't be
I'd do anything for old Adelaide
She has to do the same for me

I'm not ashamed of loving Adelaide
Although she's six times my age
I couldn't live without old Adelaide
She makes sure my bed is made

Ooh, Adelaide, Adelaide (x4)

I like coming home to find Adelaide
Has supper waiting for me
Sometimes I have to spy on old Adelaide
Just to score a little peak
I can't wait to open the door and find Adelaide
Even though she's old and gray
At night, I like to think about ol' Adelaide
I wonder if she's doing the same

Ooh, Adelaide, Adelaide (x4)

Ohh, Adelaide (x4)

Ooh, Adelaide, Adelaide (x12)

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.
