The Knife Lyrics

The Knife nibbles little apathies
Remember the quiet dare?
Moaning in the darkness,
Your eager lips,
The phone ringing, ringing
I’m going home and you’re gone forever!
And it’s so hot baby what we got
And it’s so cool how we break the rules
And it’s so hot baby what we got
And it’s so hot! Hot! Hot! Hot!
Blame your impotence
Excuse my impetuous nature
I’m always on and you’re always
So negative
I’m also always right
So don’t you get that wrong
You’re just a boy child
Who’s lost and all alone
And it’s so hot baby what we got
And it’s so cool how we break the rules
And it’s so hot baby what we got
And it’s so hot! Hot! Hot! Hot!
And it’s so hot baby what we got
And it’s so cool how we break the rules
And it’s so hot baby what we got
And it’s so hot! Hot! Hot! Hot!

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.
