Broken Glass Lyrics

Iggy, baby
Iggy, baby
I like the sound of
you strut strutting in those tight pants
In those tight pants
I like the sound of you
Strut strutting on that big stage
On that big stage
I like the sound of you on that metallic 2ko
Oh, Oh, Oh
Iggy baby
Iggy baby
I like the sound of you
strut strutting on that big stage
On that big stage
I like the sound of you
Strut strutting, strut strutting in those tight pants
I like the sound of you with no shirt at all
I like the sound of you rolling
I like the sound of you rolling in that broken glass, glass, glass
Iggy baby
I like the sound of you rolling, rolling
I like the sound of you rolling
In that broken glass, glass, glass
Iggy baby, baby
I like the taste of your sweat
And then I like the smell of your blood
And I know
I know that, that
Blood is real
I know it's real
I know that's real blood
Iggy baby
Iggy baby
I like the sound of you

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.

This song's about Iggy Pop, another great one by the devils. I exspecially love the version on the RIP live album.

It's about a time when Iggy went crazy while performing, got some kind of adrenaline high, and started rolling around in broken glass. Cut himself up really badly, they had to drag him off stage and to the hospital because he wouldn't stop.
