Set It on Fire Lyrics

Whats a matter with Christine, she' s going out of mind
Shes gonna have a big trauma but she hasn't got the time
shes looking for that something, she dont know what it is
shes looking for that something thats gonna set her World on Fire
gonna set her World on Fire set it on Fire
she works the same place I do I dont like my job at all
Dont know what she thinks of hers but I do Know its not a ball.
shes looking for that something, she dont know what it is
shes looking for that something thats gonna set her World on Fire
gonna set her World on Fire set it on Fire
Whats a matter with Christine, she s going out of mind
Shes gonna have a big trauma but she hasnt got the time
were all looking for that something, we dont know what it is
were looking for that something thats gonna set our World on Fire
Gonna Set our World on Fire
Gonna Set our World on Fire
Gonna Set our World on Fire

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.

Please Help all you scientist fans, Love kim Salmon but his lyrics are very hard to interpret. Much of these lyrics are guessing. Thers are no scientists lyric sites that I have been able to find so hopefully this can be a start
