Lyrics

VERSE 1 Yo, check the screen, some can’t read what you mean Vision impairments, dyslexia on the scene Text too tight, making reading a fight But we got rights to adjust that sight! SC 1.4.12 is the code For those who need a different reading mode Line height, spacing between the letters Word gaps too – making reading better! (WHAT!)

CHORUS Space it out! Let the text breathe! Space it out! It’s what users need! No content lost when we adjust the flow That’s accessibility – let your website grow! Space it out! (YEAH!) Space it out! (UH!)

VERSE 2 Different languages need different rules Japanese doesn’t need paragraph tools Exceptions exist for specific scripts But most need space – that’s the gist! Creators don’t need to set these metrics But your content better adapt – that’s ethics! No overlap, no cutoff, no content lost Real accessibility’s worth the cost! (COME ON!)

CHORUS Space it out! Let the text breathe! Space it out! It’s what users need! No content lost when we adjust the flow That’s accessibility – let your website grow! Space it out! (YEAH!) Space it out! (UH!)

BRIDGE PDF’s outside this rule, so are images of text Video captions embedded direct But for markup language on the web Adaptability’s what we rep! Users choose their tools, stylesheets or extensions It’s their right to make these dimensions! 1.5 times the font size for line height! Letter spacing point-one-two, that’s right!

VERSE 3 So developers listen up, this is how we roll Making content work for everyone’s the goal No text cut off, no words that overlap When users need to change the spacing gap They control their reading experience Your job is remove the interference This ain’t just best practice, it’s required Make your sites accessible – get wired! (LET’S GO!)

CHORUS Space it out! Let the text breathe! Space it out! It’s what users need! No content lost when we adjust the flow That’s accessibility – let your website grow! Space it out! (YEAH!) Space it out! (COME ON!)

OUTRO Remember the values: Line height - at least 1.5 times font size Paragraph spacing - 2 times font size Letter spacing - 0.12 times the size Word spacing - minimum 0.16 Everyone deserves to read your content Space it out!
