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 [?]

Genius Annotation

Please note that this poem, while absolutely hilarious, was actually written by a 19 or 20 year old John Keats while he was still in medical school. He didn’t compose this poem – according to Henry Stephens, Keats “scribbled” this on the cover of his “Syllabus of Chemical Lectures.”

So this wasn’t a serious attempt at poetry by Keats.
