Ball Busters in the Peanut Gallery Lyrics

I have the pistons on this thing
When it explodes
And it is my hands
But what else would I be?
And how else do I fill the gaps, the gaps in this life?
The gaps in this life?

Baby needs you, baby needs you
Baby’s room spins for you
Baby needs you, baby needs you
Baby’s room spins for you Bill
For you
It spins for you Bill

I know, bit presumptuous
But I wrote a footnote for a thanksgiving prayer
I know, surprise of the year
But we, we, we, we, we, we still kill Indians up here

And I stole your book and I put in my pocket and it’s, it’s there still
And it mightta suit me well and it mightta suit me bad but how should I know?
How should I know?
How should I know?
How else do I fill the gaps in this life?

Oh!

Baby needs you, baby needs you
Bill!
Baby needs you, baby
And he needs you Bill, and he needs you Bill
And we’re ball busters in the peanut gallery
We’re just ball busters in the peanut gallery
Ball busters in the peanut gallery
Ball busters in the peanut gallery

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.
