My Lai (Amy's Version) Lyrics

I ain't never gonna learn to swim
So when the water rises to my mouth
I'm just gonna breath right through my smile
And be happy to drown

This planet is a torturer
Nature gets off on pain
From my lai to your wife's black eye
From genocide to tooth decay

I ain't never gonna learn to run
So when the walls come tumbling down
I'm just gonna stay where I always been
I wanna die hanging around

This planet is a torturer
Nature gets off on pain
From my lai to your wife's black eye
From genocide to tooth decay

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.
