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.
Personally, I enjoy this song, however it is clearly not my favorite song on the album. The title confused me at first so I looked it up on and found that "Dada" is a musical style circa 1920 that represented songs about nothing. This may provide a greater look into why they choose to write this song, as it may simply be about nothing.
The Vocal mood and emotional tones say "Oh! Why! Nooo!' Yea! Waaaah why! No"
as a baby might scream when first born, or a man/woman might scream as they see a death in their life, or their own unfold..
Maybe :-)
It sounds like the theme music to a Tescos shopping trip i went on the otherday, if it had of been filmed.
This reminds me so much of "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots Part 2" off the Flaming Lips album of a similar name. An instrumental with lots of screams! Sounds good to me :) I love this album so much
Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
helpful
and btw, its more like "aaaaaaahhhhhh"
Those drums give you that 80's Hair Metal Anthemic kind of vibe. Haha I love it. I love this fucking album with all my heart.
It sounds like a baby demon
maybe the best song on the album
i think this song needed to be on the album, to put into perspective what we've listened to and get us ready for the glorious outro...fantastic album

this song is earsex
This song would be nothing without the creepy noises. Thanks to this song, my respect for MGMT has been taken one level higher.
