You Get Yours Lyrics

I won't put you in your place
I won't throw it back in your face when you get yours
I won't kick you when you're down there
I'll pull you back on your feet
When you get yours
I know where you're coming from
I know it's going to get the best of you
Go home the short way
The violent bear it away
I know dirty water
Ways to get around this
And you'll get yours
I won't kick you when you're down now
I won't take out the piss
When you get yours
I know where it's coming from
I know it's going to
Get the best of you
So take the short way home
You'll want to be there when it all
Comes on back to you

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.
