Another Girl, Another Planet (The Only Ones cover) Lyrics

I always flirt with death
I could kill, but I don't care about it
I can face your threats
Stand up tall and scream and shout about it

I think I'm on another world with you
I'm on another planet with you

You always get under my skin
I don't find it irritating
You always play to win
I don't need rehabilitating

Another girl, another planet
Another girl, another planet

Space travels in my blood
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
Long journeys wear me out
Oh God we won't live without it

Another girl is loving you now
Another planet, forever holding you down
Another planet

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.

FYI the song was written by Peter Perrett of The Only Ones, and he was/still is a heroin addict. Although only a theory, it is said the song is about the joys of taking drugs. The refferences to rehabilitation, "I look ill" (not said in Blink 182's version) and "I can't live without it" (also not in Blink 182's version)indicate that this is the case. It is CERTAINLY not about loving a girl, although that is how it appears, there are hidden messages in the song which people do not understand (Blink 182 included)

And I prefer the original version. It was unique, Blink 182 make it sound like a trashy American pop song. That is not the type of song Another Girl, Another Planet is. It's like doing a cover of Anarchy in the UK and singing it like these muppets.
