Bombers in the Sky Lyrics

Rock a bye baby
You're the sweetest child
And when the wind blows
I will hold you tight
How can I talk to you about the shape of love
[Chorus]
You better watch out
There's bombers in the sky
Bombers in the sky
You better run for your life
Kiss your wife goodbye
Cause you know it's time to die
There are bombers in the sky
Ring a ring a roses
Floating on the sea
Sing your song for sixpence
But don't ask me to believe
No don't talk to me about the shape of love
[Chorus]
You better watch out
Cause there's bombers in the sky
Bombers in the sky
You better run for your life
Kiss your child goodbye
You know it's time to die
There are bombers in the sky
Dirty politicians
with Coca-Cola smiles
Tiny little babies
Are weaned on their lies
So don't talk to me about the shape of love
[Chorus]
You better watch out
There are bombers in the sky
Bombers in the sky
You better run for your life
Kiss your babe goodbye
Cause now you know it's time to die
Bombers in the sky
[Chorus]

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.
