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.
A really weird thing happened to me when listening to this song. At about the 3:00-mark, my body felt like it was drifting away and my hands dissapeared for a while and then I saw a light and maybe God himself...oh wait, sorry, that's just Kevin Shields.
I love hearing Belinda talking about a "red button" falling from her mouth-either shes ripping real buttons off his clothes with her teeth-or it the female part of the anatomy best know as the "man in the boat" either way,breath taking imagery.
In addition to describing sex this song seems to depict a sporadic relationship, one that would hopefully be more frequent. This song, like the rest of the album, is aurally orgasmic.

This song is the closest any human being can come to experiencing life as a honey bee.
hahahaha. a romantic frolic in the woods, interrupted by a swarm of sad bees.

Is it Bilinda or Kevin singing? I really can't tell most of the time with My Bloody Valentine, lol.

its about sex
I feel that this song encapsulates sex rather well.
it's a metaphor for heaven me thinks

This is so about intimacy, love the song too.
This song is very sexual right down to the way Bilinda coos (they sound like orgasms). The sound of the song is very druggy too.
