About the Lyrics Machine

Punctuation:

Don't include sentence punction such as commas, periods or exclamation points in your search strings.

Do include apostrophes for legitimate contractions such as I'll, don't, ain't, they'd, etc.

Standard Spellings:

This is a list of standard spellings used in the database:

  • Yeah
  • Whoa
  • Oh
  • Ah
  • Oo
  • 'Cause

Spell all words ending in "ing" completely, such as "Singing", "Waiting", etc.

Note: There is no standard for "gonna". The database uses "gonna" in most places where the sense is "intends to", as opposed to "going somewhere" where "going to" is spelled out, but there was no hard and fast rule for this. When a search includes "gonna", you might have to try searching twice, once each way.

Matching:

All matching is case-insensitive.

"Match Partial Words" will match "police" and "policeman" with the search string "police".

With "Exact Words" the search string "police" will not match "policeman".

With "Entire Phrase" the search string "I Am The Walrus" will only match to songs that have those words together in that order. Without "Entire Phrase" matching, the search string "I Am The Walrus" will match any song that has all four words in any order anywhere in the song.
