St Dymphna Lyrics

The waters too cold
I can't walk on it
This bread too stale
I can't give you my flesh
The loaves and fishes and water to wine
are just parlor tricks
Did you know I used to be daddy's little girl
Couldn't beget blood from a stone but
I can separate gristle and bone
Dymphna
Dymphna
Saint

Bring me your mad old daft
we'll dance in the street
Bring me your hungry and cold
We all love a parade
I'll steal you thoughts and hopes
give you pretty things
Tied up with baubles and bows
and you won't feel anything
Dymphna
Dymphna
Saint

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.
