Big World Lyrics

Try and imagine my life
Try and imagine why
Try and imagine my day
Try and imagine
('magine)
Try and imagine my day
Try and imagine why
Try and imagine my life
Try and imagine

Try and imagine why
Try and imagine my day
Try and imagine
('magine)
Try and imagine my day
Try and imagine why
Try and imagine my life
Try and imagine

Chorus:
Time to meet your maker
Look her in the eyes
Time to meet your mother
Look her in the eyes
Time for justification
Time for big words
Time for pontification
Time for big world

Try and imagine my side
Try and imagine why
Try and imagine my love
Try and imagine
('magine)
Try and imagine the lies
Try and imagine why
Try and imagine the time
Try and imagine

(Chorus - "Extrameleon Curioz Jam")

Try and imagine tension
Try and imagine pain
Try and imagine friction
Try and imagine
('magine)
Try and imagine freedom
Try and imagine why
Try and imagine freedom
Try and imagine

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.

Al:

We started working out the music to "Big World" before the '97 fall tour, so you may have heard bits and pieces of it come up in other songs or solos. The lyrics came on their own much later. I simply kept singing the song over and over and the lyrics came into their own. In 1997, I had the good fortune of locating my biological parents for the first time. The experience deserves more time and space than liner notes can allow for, but suffice it to say that it was surreal, unfathomable, and above all a positive experience for everyone involved. This song is simply a snapshot of that moment of realization - somewhere between the switch and the light bulb.
