Storm the Palace Lyrics

Storm the Palace
Storm the Palace

Turn it into a bar
Let them work in Spar

Storm the Palace
Storm the Palace

Turn it into flats
Make them all ex-pats

Coz tourism is congestion
Tourism is congestion

Storm the Palace
Storm the Palace

You can stick your OBE
I'll sort out your bad feng shui

Coz tourism is congestion
Tourism is congestion

Storm the Palace

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Oh dear, no need to look out for Cerys in future honours lists then? :-)

A great Republican song. Buckingham Palace would certainly make a good bar but I dunno about making them work at Spa, they're hardly qualified at they?. Especially Prince Harry, what did Di say 'Thick! A plank of wood!'

Spar is a really scroungy convenience shop. It's nothing you need to be qualified for.

Unless you're saying they're not even good for that?
