Perfect Lyrics

I wish I could be honest
Humble and modest
And a little less picky
And I wish that I could be stronger
Patient for longer
So everyone would know that I am

I guess I want to change myself
For everyone else
Then people would like me
And I could be happy
But nobody's perfect
Especially me

I wish I could be clever
Smarter than ever
A little more subtle
And I wish that I could be caring
Strapping and daring
So everyone would know that I am

I guess I want to change myself
For everyone else
Then people would like me
And I could be happy
But nobody's perfect
Especially me
Especially me

I wish I could be happy
Staying exactly the way that I am
And how I wish I could be carefree
Forget about every
One, two, three, four

And I don't want to change myself
For anyone else
Don't care if they like me
So long as I'm happy
'Cause nobody's perfect but...

Whatever

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.
