What Have They Done to You Now? Lyrics

If you’re gonna fool around
Why don’t you keep it out of town
Don’t give me all the details
I don’t wanna know
I don’t wanna know
What have they done to you now?

Guess you’d better keep your pants on
There’s no more tables left to dance on
I used to carry you home
I don’t anymore
Won’t anymore
What have they done to you now?

Old familiar
Friends to fill your
Heart with grief
And agony

A little friendly conversation
Character assassination
I just don’t care anymore and
I don’t wanna know
I don’t wanna know
What have they done to you now?

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.
