Something's Wrong Lyrics

When your pubic hair's on fire, something's wrong
When you think you're the Messiah, something's wrong
When you mistake a plane for Venus, something's wrong
When your girlfriend's got a penis

Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...

When you like music more than life, something's wrong
When you start sleeping as you drive, something's wrong
When you're favorite drink is thinner, something's wrong
When you're proud to be a sinner

Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...

When a canary drives a tractor, something's wrong
When your president's an actor, something's wrong
When your jacket's plagued with dandruff, something's wrong
If you think that this song matters

Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...

Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...
Something's wrong...

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.

Wow, Asphyxia - I'm completely in awe of your eloquency.

The song is meant to be ironic, fun and comical (When your pubic hair's on fire, something's wrong)yet with a slightly deeper message between the lines ( When your president's an actor, something's wrong)

If you actually take it seriously, then SOMETHING'S WRONG ;D

Agree with filthymind69. She means a lot of other things to.... Not only the president, but also "when you're proud to be a sinner" means something. That's what she's doing, she's putting serious things in a context with things that are just weird. When you read it when you keep that in mind, you see that she makes you see all the things in life that ARE wrong, but are normal for us. While they're just as weird as the rest. So actually, I think it's pretty brilliant.
