Conscience Keep an Eye on Me Lyrics

Tonight is like to work late and I just can't stay home
A few dreams with an old friend somehow don't seem so wrong
But a dream or two a friendly kiss just wets my appetite
Oh conscience keep an eye on me tonight
I can't be true to someone who thinks the world of me
And what the girl he thinks I am is all I'd like to be
But when temptations beckon I can't tell wrong from right
Oh conscience keep an eye on me tonight
[ steel ]
It's hard to face the man I love with a heart so full of shame
If and when I lose him well I know who's to blame
I don't know why I'm not like this it's something I must hide
Oh conscience keep an eye on me tonight

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.
