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.
These are the lyrics for Pressing On! The lyrics for the Jefferson Airplane (demo) are this:
If it hurts,
Kiss it better
You wear skirts,
I write nice letters
Never said nothing with flowers
Though we always talked for hours
And it seems to get much colder
When you cry on your own shoulder
And we know the show
Must go on
Guess I know
I guess I'll throw on
Some Jefferson Airplane
I'm trapped and I am enclosed
But I won't complain
I'll open all the windows
Jefferson airplane
I'm trapped and I am enclosed
But I won't complain
I'll open all the windows
'Cause when it's colder
I feel much better
When I cry on my own shoulder
I'll just throw on a sweater and go
And I'll go to where the weather's nice and warm
And I'll go to where I am reborn
And I'll go, cause in my dreams I can't complain
And I'll go on my Jefferson Airplane
You make the calls
I'll cover my ears
Niagra falls
Still flows on New Year's
I will save
Your plunging neckline
Kiss your face
You try to deck mine
If I behave it's going to cost him
Skip the rave in downtown boston
And we know the show
Must go on
Guess I know
I guess I'll throw on
Some Jefferson Airplane
I'm trapped and I am enclosed
But I won't complain
I'll open all the windows
Jefferson airplane
I'm trapped and I am enclosed
But I won't complain
I'll open all the windows
'Cause when it's colder
I feel much better
When I cry on my own shoulder
I'll just throw on a sweater and go
And I'll go to where the weather's nice and warm
And I'll go to where in a sense, I am reborn
And I'll go, cause in my dreams I can't complain
And I'll fly on my Jefferson Airplane
Jefferson Airplane
I'm trapped and I am enclosed
But I won't complain
I'll open all the windows
Jefferson airplane
I'm trapped and I am enclosed
But I won't complain
I'll open all the windows
'Cause when it's colder
I feel much better
When I cry on my own shoulder
I'll just throw on a sweater and go
