Just B.Right.On Lyrics

i've written ten verse in as many years
overcome no suburban fears
played them for none of my dears
drinking since i came here

and the friends that i befriended
nothing for would have me lended
till my incentives bended
drinking since i came here

back home i felt co certain strong
fame overnight is one night too long
i can't seem to just be right on
drinking since i came here

(traditional) wey hey up she rises
patent blocks of different sizes
wey hey up she rises
early in the morning

and no words of joy are spoken
sacred texts that i bought hoping
all of which i've yet to open
drinking since i came here

and the boys that i attracted
easily get me distracted
only to have love retracted
drinking since i came here

so i know the oracles men
better than answers to their questions
i have got nothing to show them
drinking since i came here

(traditional) wey hey up she rises
patent blocks of different sizes
wey hey up she rises
early in the morning

that's what to do with a drunken sailor
in this city
that's what to do with a drunken sailor
like 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.
