Over the Top Lyrics

Shoot, shoot, shoot, hey

Don't be unkind
I'm out of my mind
And I'm telling you
It's not that I'm bad
I'm totally mad
I'm a loser, too

I'm certain
I must be a burden
Completely
Over the top, over the top

Don't know what it means
All I hear is screams
And I don't know whose
The nightmare's for real
I got a raw deal
It's all bad news

I swear it
I can't bear it
Completely
Over the top, over the top

You know it's no lie
My main alibi
It's a waste of time
You know it's the truth
The lyrics' the proof
But at least it rhymes

You can't harm me
'Cause I'm barmy
Completely
Over the top, over the top

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.
