Bottoms Up! (You Fantastic Bastard) Lyrics

It's time to kiss the genius
It's time to break the spell
There's a one out of three chance
There's a pleasure banging my bell

I'm in the soft pink luxury tunnel
??? big time evil grip
There's a clown crazed ???
Sugar I got the whip

I've got a pocket full of friggin' loose change
I've got a stick shift booby trap
I wanna push it too far
I wanna re-route your map
Fantastic moments of grandeur
Ironic seasons of crust
I'm with the disco police
You're getting back on the bus...

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 has to be about something sexual. "soft pink luxury tunnel"? "I wanna reroute your map"? C'mon.
