Squeezing Sponges over Policemen's Heads Lyrics

Well help me help me sing this song
I wanna stay living for much too long
Now I wanna ride this big brass gong
Where am I babe?
You don't know!

I gotta take pills to kill my pain
To kill my pleasure I blow my brain
I get so high I fall down again
What's happenin' man?
You don't know!

I gotta drink booze to help me swing
Belladonna to help me sing
I gotta smoke grass to help me see
Who are you babe ?
You don't know !

Well mirror, mirror on the wall
Who's the biggest fool of all
Hallucinating freedom calls
Wot's freedom babe ?
You don't know !

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.
