Pulling Worms Apart Lyrics

Open up that smile darling and gush all over me
Tripping over rainbows we hardly miss a beat
Candy cigarettes litter up our past
Candy-ass regrets flicker out last
Tucked away is a little boy pulling worms apart
Inside that little boy is a broken little boy heart
Too much too soon already grown up
Who unplugged the electric company?
Saturday mornings have turned to kiddie porn
My nite-lite has burnt out!
The last thing I thought I'd be was a waste of time
All those peel away feelings
Stop the blind from leading the blind
The last think I thought I'd be was a waste of time
I'm still seeing trails and chasers never stop chasing
I guess I'm happy now

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.
