Hell-Building-Man Lyrics

Gettin' caught up in it buildin' this fuckin' shit but back in the mind a truth's realized
the other men the better men the real men respect to them
submit, retreat embrace defeat and get to work heave-ho the shirk
and do the dance the wanna-be-man-dance and burn your ass from flamin' hoop jumps compensatin' for just what ain't
and up the ladder up the scaffold w/sacks of bullshit, many mouthfuls
hammer for hammer crowbar for rod
smoke and fire flames and fire higher and higher pile it up higher

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.
