Change Me Lyrics

Everybody's sticking to their guns and mother licking
And I don't know what to think about you living how you're taught to live
Is it how I ought to live?

My my my what a beautiful sty
I'm gonna stay dead skinny so they won't pick me to fry
I don't wanna die
Anything like everyone says I might
I've had it, I've had it, I've had it
With thinking it's wrong to be right

I don't need to sell a story to a second rate tabloid
I don't need to look good
'Cause I don't want a friend's approval
I'm gonna remove all that categorisation, any situation, alienation
I don't want to know it
I've just got to throw it
Off its course like everyone says we could
I've had it, I've had it, I've had it
With saying we could when we should
Change me

I'll get around to it
But I'm not going to do it with dope or bones or keeping up with the Jones'
I don't need to get whipped or clipped by a tom
Because you're always wrong if you're wondering if I'm lonely
Ah, if only
I could live like everyone says I might
I've had it, I've had it, I've had it
With saying it's wrong to be right
Change me

Everybody's sticking to their guns and mother licking
And I don't know what to think about you living how you're taught to live
Is it how I ought to live?

My my my what a beautiful sty
I'm gonna stay dead skinny so they won't pick me to fry
I don't wanna die
Anything like everyone says I might
I've had it, I've had it, I've had it
With thinking it's wrong to be right

I don't need to sell a story to a second rate tabloid
I don't need to look good
'Cause I don't want a friend's approval
I'm gonna remove all that categorisation, any situation, alienation
I don't want to know it
I've just got to throw it
Off its course like everyone says we could
I've had it, I've had it, I've had it
With saying we could when we should
Change me

I'll get around to it
But I'm not going to do it with dope or bones or keeping up with the Jones'
I don't need to get whipped or clipped by a tom
Because you're always wrong if you're wondering if I'm lonely
Ah, if only
I could live like everyone says I might
I've had it, I've had it, I've had it

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.
