Ballad Of Brick Lane Lyrics

I don't know why I'm heading to Brick Lane
I hate it there like everybody does
I haven't been there for ages
I'd like to try on old shoes and pretty faces
What will I do with your pretty face?
And the face you make for me?
Just show me a good cause
No longer weighted under the weight of love
Everything was debatable
It was breakable
Feels like I am following me
Like a long way
I don't know why you're looking for a crack
A crack will break a back or me and you
Whether I do or do not like it too
There's a lot of lying showing through

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.
