Perhaps Now The Vultures Lyrics

Shot down from the rafters and off to everafter

Consider this a failure, so be it--urchin promise

The curse is working--the trail of bodies

That leaves no suspect, what did you expect?

And get it, get it here, get it now

The news is not worthy

Don't even look

You're cornered into thinking

Invited to the lynching

Specify instructions

I'll shoot the arrow straight up

I'll frame your holy mugshot

Add insult to buckshot

And then I'll drink with glycerol frog-eye

Yeah, she can tell you every detail..

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.
