I Want You To Want Me Lyrics

i want you to want me,
i need you to need me,
i'm begging you to beg me,
and i want you now,
yeh i want you to want me,
i need you to need me,
i'm begging you to beg me,
i'd love you to love me,
buy branded shit,
put on branded shoes,
i would do anything,
if you say...
that you love me...
*oowwhhh im naked*
didnt i didnt i didnt i see you crying?
didnt i didnt i didnt i see you crying?
sitting all alone but you felt like dying,
didnt i didnt i didnt i see you crying?
i want you to want me,
i need you to *need* need me,
i'm begging you to beg me,
i'd love you to love me,
buy branded shit,
put on branded shoes,
i would do anything if you say...
that you love me...
didnt i didnt i didnt i see you crying?
didnt i didnt i didnt i see you crying?
sitting all alone i nearly felt like dying,
didnt i didnt i didnt i see you crying?
*ooohhh yyyeeeeaaaahhhhh*

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.

NOFX did it, Letters to Cleo did it (SUCKED HARD, NOT A GOOD COVER AT ALL), and Propagandi also did it. The song, like I against I said was origianally done by cheap trick, thats the best verson yet in my opinion.
