Yeah, submit in the comments section below, it's easiest since it gives us a link to edit the song in the email. She is quite busy and yeah, I know there are whole sections missing and so on, so there's lots to do in there, you should have fun. There are plenty of places where the lyrics are known (i.e. where they're in the liner notes) and there are typos, there are questions like, when the lyrics in the notes don't match what FB sings, which version do we put in, and there are obvious uncertainties about lyrics with no notes. For these, rather than just sending your opinion, it would help if you were to start a thread so we at least have a consensus.
Thanks for your help, I do look forward to having the discopedia burgeoning with info.

Georgie Porgie used to get real high
He used to kiss the world till it made him cry
He was under the bottle's command
But one last winter he got it together and
Happiness came with the warmer weather laying across all the land
He had a love she also liked to drink
She got it together
But you know what I think?
I think she was still feeling glum
She took got a gun and she shot him in the head
She shot herself and so soon they were wed as the air conditioner hummed
Sing for joy
Sing for laughs
Sing for joy
Sing for joy
If nothing else
Sing for joy
Mamma killed a pumpkin
She thought it was a sweet
She put it on the table
But it was still meat
She forgot the sugar again
Daddy came home, she had tears in her eyes
He said "Gimme grilled cheese
And paperbag French fries"
See, he He'd forgot the sugar again
We had a wander seven years out West
It wasn't exactly the wilderness
But I felt like an Israelite
Mamma is a gypsy, she'll never find her town
Daddy went to sea but the boat went down
And the flames shot into the night
Sing for joy
Sing for laughs
Sing for joy
Sing for joy
If nothing else
Sing for joy
I know a girl who lives on the hill
I don't know if her sister will
or But I was thinking about her best friend
Oh listen to me
I'm a desperate boy
I think I better have a sing for joy
And I guess think this has just got to end
I'll get away in my get away car
Every now and then I'll send my regards
from a payphone down in the flats
I'm sorry for the love
I'm sorry for the pain
I'll say I'm sorry baby again and again
I'm sorry we're joining the stats
Sing for joy
Sing for laughs
Sing for joy
Sing for joy
If nothing else
Sing for joy

I struck out all the mistakes, corrections are in bold... BUT...See I could do all this but I think this will cause more trouble than help out.
...And since I'm wrong, the urban plight is not the problem. |

More than happy for help. I have busy bursting out my ears, just started this course and with a two hour journey each way and a list of homework as long as my arm at the moment I haven't had the time/energy for anything else. It's only my first week so I'm sure I'll get used to it soon.
The only thing I'd say is when you submit via the comments please please please put your forum handle on the comment so I know it's you and if you don't mind, your email so I can double check if needs be. This is the problem I've had so far with the comments, being unable to check what people are sending me.
During the week there's going to be no chance of me changing anything but seeing as my weekends are going to be solid study from now on I can take little breaks to do some editing. It'll save me going mental.
Thanks ever so much for your offer of help. Just a note though: the lyrics from honeycomb that are in the db have been taken from the Japanese booklet which is what I think we decided we would stick with. So is this what you hear? Also, I didn't quite understand about Mr Grieves not being in there... did you mean the lyrics rather than the song? I have a few threads dotted about the place for pixies lyrics, this could have been one of the iffy ones. |

Yeah, I will add a place for them to put their name eventually, it's a question of aesthetics and also tieing into the FB.Net DB.
