How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

He’s addressing this entire song to “children”. He’s sharing his sadness and expressing his somewhat cynical views on the world. He wants his bad experiences to serve as a warning and a lesson for the youth- he doesn’t want anyone to go through the things he has gone through. Although this song is, in certain lines, addressed to a specific person, it also double-y serves as a warning to the audience as a whole.
