A beautiful war Lyrics

It’s a beautiful day
To see my brain??
It’s a beautiful day
For a daring raid
I can see my brain??
From a far

So I open the hatch and I drop the first batch
It’s a shame to miss the place
But ill see the film within days
But ill get to see the replay of my beautiful day
Relive my day
My beautiful day
Relive my beautiful day

When I open the hatch
And I drop the first batch
How they got no time
To flee total success
We’ll all be free
(We’ll all be free)
What a beautiful day
(Just a beautiful day)

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.

Brilliant song on the US war experience, wherever you are, as long as there's a TV and news there.
