Shifting Swift Is A Lift Lyrics

I gotta go to??? a good woman yeah
Whooo she's a poetic bumper sticker
I got fresh the grits yeah (?)
My name is ???
A massive upheaval with crow hoppings and prettiest freaks go round
he he he he he he he
Ooh solve the planet
A wise man and his whisky
On a five kiss detail
Shifting swift is a lift
Shifting swift is a lift
In mens ??? paradiso
You are placed in despicable positions
And the best approach is not known
So just follow the bite marks
No need to stare ??? neccessary
Shifting swift is a lift

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.
