We Got A Hit Lyrics

We got our folks together
We broke down barriers
We found a dream to dream
We were the carriers

We got rich and famous
Papers at our door
We talked a load of crap
They just wanted more

We got a hit
Good news, we got a hit
We got a hit
Good news, we got a hit
We got a hit
We got a hit...

We got our folks together
We broke down barriers
We found a dream to dream
We were the carriers

We got a hit
Good news, we got a hit
We got a hit
Good news

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 it's sort of what music can do to a community; a society. The part about "we broke down barriers, we found a dream to dream, we were the carriers" shows how the music has transended the barriers people put up, and what it means to the bands themselves; dreaming, and sometimes; finally getting what they wanted.

The song is from the wire and glass mini opera, and is about manipulating media and internet and playing a hit (fragments) on TV, Radio and stage
