I've Got the World on a String Lyrics

I?ve got the world on a string

Sittin' on a rainbow

Got the string around my finger

What a world, what a life, I?m in love

I?ve got a song that I sing

I can make the rainbow

Any time I move my finger

Lucky me, can?t you see, I?m in love?

Life?s a beautiful thing

As long as I hold the string

I?d be a silly so-and-so

If I should ever let you go

I?ve got the world on a string

Sittin' on a rainbow

Got the string around my finger

What a world, what a life, mama, I?m in love

Oh, what a world, what a life

Baby, I?m in love, is it?

Looka here, lucky me, can?t you see

Mama, I?m in love?

Life?s a beautiful thing

As long as I hold the string

I?d be a silly so-and-so

If I should ever let you go, yes

What a world, what a, what a life

Baby, love

Oh, what a world baby

Oh, I?m in love, yeah man

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.
