Brother Lyrics

I got your message it made me jump from my seat
My heart near missed a beat
I had to hear her voice to calm me down

We know we've not exactly been the best of brothers
But you ain't got no others
We'll have to work this out just you and we

And the only thing we ask is that you let us be alone
We'll be up on our feet soon

Take no heed of those who put you on a downhil pushbike
Telling you something like
The world needs ditch diggers too

So smoke another coffin nail
Sing 'til you're hoarse and we'll be there of course
To carry you on our shoulders through the streets

And the only thing we ask is that you let us be alone
We'll be up on our feet soon

So take those kid gloves off
Give the world a standing eight count
'cause here we come

And the only thing we ask is that you let us be alone
We'll be up on our feet soon

And the only thing we ask is that you let us be alone
We'll be up on our feet soon

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.
