In The Right Place The Right Time Lyrics

everyone thatï¿½s getting through is hit one time
in the right place when it was just the right time
wonï¿½t you show me how how to get to there right now?
if I need to buy a ticket Iï¿½ll put something down
throw me in the thicket Iï¿½ll find my way out
been so long down it looks like up to me
i say it just a few more times
in the right place the right time in the right place the right time
in the right place the right time

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.

i think the song goes like this:

"everyone that's got something was at one time in the right place when it was just the right time lord please show me how how to get to there right now"
