This lyric is shown with a period, with a comma, no question mark and neither in many places. Do you have the official lyrics that you can show for this? Having to make updates on a fun blurb at the top of the site because of punctuation marks is adding a lot of work to a very small staff (one person handles this, and he has a LOT of work on his plate).

I can't really show proof because the 1st LP release doesn't have printed lyrics, if that's how it works.
But "She" needs to be lowercase after a comma: "I once had a girl. Or should I say, she once had me"
I don't really mind if someone won't even fix it, I just want to mention it in case something about it will be done, like how "Moongdog" was changed to "Moondog", because I mentioned it.
Your time is more important, so take your time.

Spelling is one thing. What you think is a punctuation correction is another. Someone could come in right after it's changed, disagree with your punctuation, and then there we are again. How do you know that comma even exists? Again. The one person who does these has a LOT of other things to do. Like running the entire site and not getting paid for it. I get that you want things correct, but come on. Commas and question marks where you THINK they should be? I think you can let things like this go. And it's not really great courtesy to be repeatedly correcting people's spelling and punctuation on a public message board. And I think it would be helpful to the site to understand that things like this really don't need to be on the worklist of one person. This lyric blurb at the top of the page is such a low priority, and shouldn't be used to add to an already huge workload.
