Shitting Bricks Lyrics

Ahhh, never thought it could happen to me
But it did and now look at me
I'm alone, standing in my cell
Staring at the wall, living in hell
Ahhh, to my luck, I never said when
I did it again and again
Breaking, smashing, and killing
I've never knew when to quit
Do they take, I should have stopped
Thought I'd never get by
But I did, I got guts
Now I feel pretty stupid. Fuck!
I'm shitting bricks
I'm shitting bricks
I'm shitting bricks
I'm shitting bricks by the dozen
I'm shitting bricks
I'm shitting bricks
Noooo!

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 is from early on in NOFX's career, so as you'd expect it's not a great song, though I think it's ok. NOFX did metal influenced punk in the early days, and Shitting Bricks is in that style.
