Bishop Allen Drive Lyrics

I found myself a queen
In a bright sundress
She was prettier than May
But she liked me best

I don't know why, but she couldn't stand still
The radio was playing, it was time to kill
We were throwing furniture off the roof
We'd watch it shatter on the ground below
Singing: La la la la la la la la la la

There was fever in her hair
And a beauty in her brain
And she showed me 'round town
Quiet as a hurricane

Well, the mischief in her eyes
Gave me something to believe
And while I knew she couldn't stay
I guess I never heard her leave

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.
