It ALWAYS bothered me that one person would send in lyrics, which would be "birdied" (harvested for the DT) immediately, with no chance of discussion. I was afraid I'd add lyrics, then catch a mistake a few hours later, but too late to correct. The problem is that those lyrics get propagated all over the net, because people who add them to sites all grab whatever lyrics they can, wrong or right. THEN you try to tell someone "those lyrics you're singing are wrong", and they cite the place they got them.

I guess it's just tough shit - that's the way things are.
