Ukulele Me! Lyrics

ukulele mekulele
how happy we could bekulele!
onekulele twokulele threekulele
ukulele me!

when I hear the sound
of that little brown thing humming
I don't know if I'm going or coming
down, up down, up down, down
keep strumming
ukulele me!

ukulele mekulele
how happy we could bekulele!
akulele bkulele ckulele

play a little tune
sing about the moon, who cares
something that won't give me nightmares
sing it sweetly or say your prayers
ukulele me!
xkulele ykulele zkulele
ukulele me!

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.
