Star Machine Lyrics

Been thinking of building a ship to the stars
Found plans made in fourth grade should get me that far
Jesus she says I know what you mean
I'll make you then take you my flying machine
I'm over exposure
I need to levitate
Above this experience
I need to find a way today for far away
There's a simple explanation
For the trouble that we're in
The shed light on all night
The work noise outside
The belief in relief found somewhere to hide
Jesus she says I know what you mean
Don't be scared just prepared
My flying machine

Pre Chorus
Chorus
Meander
Chorus

I've set the date take off's tonight
My star machine takes flight

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 great. One of, if not the best song on the cd. I think it's about trying to get away from things. I have different views on songs sometimes so I'm probably wrong. Just a great song, pity Jebediah couldn't produce this quality on their last. Mad song, rock on Jebs.
