I Like to Riff Lyrics

I like to riff
Doo-doo-doo-dat-da,
I like to riff
Ba-da-da-do-da-da,
Riffing is the thing for me

I like to riff
'Cause it puts me solid in the groove
I like to riff
Oh, it's a sold killer
Da-da-da-dod-doo-da-da,
Riffing is the thing for me

If you want to be a sender
Knock your friends on the juice or bender
Grab the major scale and run

I like to riff
'Cause it makes you feel so fine
I like to riff
It takes your troubles off your mind
Bob-a-bob-a-da-da-razz-a-doo-doo-da
Riffing is the thing for me

You can riff like this
Riff like this

I like to riff
'Cause it makes you feel so fine
I like to riff
Takes your troubles off your mind
Bob-a-bob-a-da-da-razz-a-doo-doo-da
Razz-a-doo-doo-da-razz-a-doo-da-da
Razz-a-doo-doo-da-razz-a-doo-da-da
Riffing, riffing is the thing for me

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.
