"Present company excepted" (The first one)
"Killing it with inspecting" -> "Killing it with inspection"
"Arguments are make from make outs" -> "Arguments are made for make-ups"
"We've got to bring our results" -> "We've got to bring the resources"
"I wanna play it 'til the time comes" -> "I'm gonna play until the time comes"
"But there's a string of divorces" -> "Forget your string of divorces"
"You go and throw your little hands up" -> "Just go and throw your little hands up, it's late"
(extra lyric at the end)
"I miss the way the night comes" -> "I miss the way the night goes"
"They're throwing marks into pieces" -> "You're blowing Marxism to pieces"
"Baby, they're arguments, the pieces" -> "Their little arguments to pieces, show"
(extra lyric at the end)
"Work a little bit" -> "Put your little feet down"
(otherwise he has nothing to say during the long note)
"Make me into bigger pieces" -> "Break me into bigger pieces"
"It's as though he's home with you" -> "So some of me is home with you"
"And we can make our dreams come true" -> "And we can make our bad dreams come true"
"...a-go" -> "...a go" (x2)
"And we can miss the best thing to do" -> "And we can miss the best things to do"
"They're throwing marks into pieces" -> "And blow Marxists into pieces"
"Maybe they're arguments, the pieces" -> "Their little argument to pieces" (singular argument)
"We should try a little harder" -> "Wish you'd try a little harder"
Then the lyrics should be accurate. There was actually a little bit of ad-lib in the recording compared to the written lyrics. It was written as "my friends know how to make it feel good", but the one written here "with friends who always make it feel good" is definitely the way I heard it.">
