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.

When I make my first million think I'll buy myself some happiness if there's a sale on satisfaction I might just have to stock up maybe I'll buy myself some muscles an a California lifestyle an irresponsible Ferrari an ex-cheerleader to knock up n if there is some left over I might buy a leather jacket and a brand new Harley-davidson and a fifth of cuervo gold n then I'd ride on out to Reno lose the rest in some casino n like any good like los angeleno keep my creditors on hold when I make my first million any day now when I make my first million any day now when I make my first million, oh oh oh any day now

when I make my first million I will try hard to deserve it and like a good boy i will serve it out to those who need it most, let's see the lawyers the accountants politicians and executives the mighty u.s. government the father son and holy ghost when I make my first million any day now when I make my first million any day now when I make my first million, woah, oh oh oh any day now

meanwhile I toil in my obscurity and my peanut butter sandwiches n when I make my first million I'll look back on this and grin now that greed is back in fashion I'll rebel with real compassion or else that stockpiled satisfaction will soon be turning to chagrin when I make my first million any day now when I make my first million any day now when I make my first million, oh oh oh any day now
