Scott Pilgrim Lyrics

I've liked you for a thousand years, a thousand years.
(I can't wait 'til I see you)
I've liked you for a thousand years, a thousand years
(I can't wait 'til I see you)
I've liked you for a thousand years, a thousand years

You can't stand to see me that way.
No matter what I do, no matter what I say.
Yeah!
You can't stand to see me that way.
Yeah! Yeah!

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.

Yeah so the lyrics are pretty self explanatory. What I really like about this song is the guitar part. It's just so awesome. Really kickass. I don't know how to explain it but it's really awesome. I also like the name of the song. Dunno why, though I suspect the comic and movie it would go on to inspire play some small part in it. And for anyone who's only listened to it on the movie soundtrack, I'd advise you to listen to the original version as well. The one on the soundtrack is a little too polished a slick. The original is rougher and I prefer it.

I fell in love with this song after falling in love with the Scott Pilgrim comics and movie. It's super simple, girly, indie, Toronto, punk rock. And the instruments sound great as well. It's a super catchy and fun song.

I'd like to know if Scott Pilgrim was a real person originally.
