Curse Of The Black Ass Buffalo Lyrics

excess talkers told stories
a "Pioneer Chambers" release
official transcript pony expressed
for the gasoline drinkers recieved
and i failed to mention that
even we could smell a rat
woould rather throw parties than stones
would rather break virgins than bones
now this is just a theory
but i sincerely believe
that if you're into rock and roll
you've got to sell your soul
and now i've got a hunch
they've got something up their sleeves
and think that "Pioneer Chambers"
doesn't wish us to leave
doesn't wish us to leave

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.

I really dig this song; the feel of it and such...

But the lyrics seem somewhat puzzling to me. Does anyone have a clear interpretation of this?
