Somerstown Lyrics

Every time I close the windows of my soul
I take a trip to the shadows of my world

The call of the town
So strong and so loud
Makes me want to live in Somerstown

Every time I see the junkies outside my door
Swinging their needles and praying for another score

The call of the town
So strong and so loud
Makes me want to live in Somerstown

I don't know what to do
I want a room with a view
I want to be with you in the heart of Somerstown

I don't know what to do
I want a room with a view
I just want to stay with you in the heart of Somerstown

Every time I close the windows of my soul
I take a trip to the shadows of my world

The call of the town
So strong and so loud
Makes me want to live in Somerstown

(Every time I see the junkies outside my door
Swinging their needles and praying for another score)

The call of the town
So strong and so loud
Makes me want to live in Somerstown

The call of the town
So strong and so loud
Makes me want to live in Somerstown

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.
