Stale Spaghetti Lyrics

Love
You were the only one for me
I'd settle for nothing less
And nothing is all I got
I feel just like a rot
But I thought of the better days
For you and me
Like we could get tickets for the bus
And make it to heaven
But we bit the dust
How can we exist so far apart?
That there was never any art to save us
?
? we've lost
Time was so much grief from disbelief
I just can't make it any more
Life is too much of a chore
And when we walked out of the door
I wouldn't see you any more
Love can't last the torment of a broken life
A broken dream
Try to cling on to nothing
As I'm slipping away
Death may come soon for me
And I can feel it in my heart
Not enough love from the start
As the lord watches so cruely
Love
That's what I want
I can't deny
And she'd never like me like that
Only friends
I guess she thought
While I'm tied up in nots
Waiting for a bowl of stale spaghetti
Love is what I really wanted so well
And if I burn a thousand years in hell
I might just never give up
'Cause I love you so much
?
I love you
Yes, I do

Love
You were the only one for me
I'd settle for nothing less
And nothing is all I got
I feel just like a rot
But I thought of the better days
For you and me
Like we could get tickets for the bus
And make it to heaven
But we bit the dust
How can we exist so far apart?
That there was never any art to save us
?
? we've lost
Time was so much grief from disbelief
I just can't make it any more
Life is too much of a chore
And when we walked out of the door
I wouldn't see you any more
Love can't last the torment of a broken life
A broken dream
Try to cling on to nothing
As I'm slipping away
Death may come soon for me
And I can feel it in my heart
Not enough love from the start
As the lord watches so cruely
Love 
That's what I want
I can't deny
And she'd never like me like that
Only friends
I guess she thought
While I'm tied up in nots
Waiting for a bowl of stale spaghetti
Love is what I really wanted so well
And if I burn a thousand years in hell
I might just never give up
'Cause I love you so much

I love you
Yes, I do

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.
