Ebb and Flow Lyrics

Well, I
Can't god damn believe this shit
The earth is spinning still
The message has been sent down from the house up on the hill
They're crying:
Help me!
I've got to trade you something for my money

Well, I
Got my job
I pay my tax
I take my two weeks
Spend some satisfaction
Type of the class
We're crying:
Help me!
I need my education
Make me happy

'Cause you know that it goes
With the ebb and flow
You'll never know
How it was just so
You can holler and cry
Got no love
Well I
I'm switching sides
With the great divide

Make you a tightrope
Walking fool

Well, he
Loves more
She loves you not
You got your own fill
You got your burning question
For the house up on the hill
Everybody:
Help me!
We got to write their lives
And happy

'Cause we know it goes
With the ebb and flow
You'll never know
How it was just so
You can holler and cry
Got no love
Well I
I'm switching sides
With the great divide

Make you a tightrope
Walking fool

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.
