Great Balls of Fire Lyrics

Why hide when the talkie sighs?
They'll never take this dog alive
I wanna pee up an escalator
Prime time to be fine
What now of the worried sound
That used to talk this talkie down?
I wanna pee up an escalator
Prime time to be fine
Though bitter acts sustain us now
Love won't bring our bodies back
Or hold its own while she's around
One last joke while she's around
Silhouettes don't phase my France
And love won't bring our bodies back
High tide got me hot inside
Drowning man got a one-track mind
A walking dream on a respirator
Time to be fine

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.
