Irony Is For Suckers Lyrics

tonight try not to think about the things just be happy for one night
and maybe we could go get a drink or maybe you could take me for a drive
i could show you where i used to live and where i had my first smoke
i wonder if you know that it's difficult for me not knowing what to think of things
now i'm confused about everything it's just sometimes i don't mind you
tell me everything is changing but you know that sometimes it just seems like you're complaining
you ask a million questions it seems so never ending you know
sometimes i just wish you'd shut your trap
let's forget work and let's just listen to the clash
'cause i can wait forever put it down let's just walk away from everything
'cause it can't last forever i can see you're running out of patience with me
irony is for suckers
wait for me i just need a little bit of time 'cause i can wait for you..

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.
