59 Chrystie Street Lyrics

"Agh agh..."
There's a girl over there
"Agh agh yea" "agh agh agh yea"
With long brown hair
"Agh agh yea" "agh agh agh yea"
I took her to the place
I threw the mattress in her face
Took off her shirt
Took off her bra
Took off her pants
You know what I saw
"A wick wick wack"
Aghh aghh ha...

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.

B-Boy Bouillabaisse is a medley of unfinished songs. It's similar to the medley on Abbey Road by The Beatles. The song "The End", from that album was sampled on The Sounds Of Science- another song on Paul's Boutique. 59 Christie Street is the opening to B-Boy Bouillabaisse. I believe the main sample in this one is "Summertime Blues."
