Promises Promises Promises Lyrics

How can I believe
That you want deceive
all I guess from you

all words that don't come true
believe me
all the words I hear
go into my ear
but you never hardly
ever make in true my dear

stop makin'
promises promises promises
that's all I get from you
i can believe your promises
that never do come true
don't make me
promises promises promises
although they're nice to hear
stop makin' all those promises
if you don't mean to deal

solo

stop makin'
promises promises promises
that's all I get from you
I can believe your promises
that never do come true
don't make me
promises promises promises
although they're nice to hear
stop makin' all those promises
if you don't mean to deal
Oh baby,
stop making' all those silly promises,
you don't mean the things you say,
do you hear?
we can leave all promises,
you know what I mean,
oh quit!
c'mon stop! there go!

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.
