Sittin' in the Balcony Lyrics

I'm just a-sittin' in the balcony
Just a-watchin' the movie
Or maybe it's a symphony, I wouldn't know
I don't care about the symphonies
Just a-cymballs and a-timpanies
I'm just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row
I'll hold your hand and I'll kiss you too
The feature's over, but we're not through
Just a-sittin' in the balcony
Holdin' hands in the balcony
Just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row

We may stop lovin' to watch Bugs Bunny
But he can't take the place of my honey
Just a-sittin' in the balcony
Just a-snootchin' in the balcony
Just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row
Just a-huggin' and a-kissin'
With my baby in the very last row

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.
