Get Out the Way Lyrics

hey there's something in the way
oh it's just me and my brain

look there's an elephant in the room
I know I'll make a piano and play a little tune

and I'll write the perfect song for the perfect day
might take a little time before my song gets played

just get out the way get out
get the out the way get out
get out the way
get out the way
get out the way

ha ha ha fa la la
there's spit on my face
the hot breathe of the human race

and I know I know I'm supposed to integrate
but how's about instead I inch away

just get out the way get out
get the out the way get out
get out the way
get out the way
get out the way

I'm not anti-social
I'm just tired of the people
and I'm fine with rolling solo
so get out

just get out the way get out
get the out the way get out
get out the way
get out the way
get out the way

get the out the way get out
get out the way
get out the way

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.

To put it simply, this song is about isolation and being antisocial. Constantly yelling at people to leave them alone if they try and approach them, no matter how nice or rude they are ("Get out the way, get out!"). They're just so convinced that society today sucks big time, and that all Earths' inhabitants are terrible people. They stay away so they won't be associated with the people of today. It's basically a more intense version of "The Stand," lol! I wish that scream Jasmin made had made it onto the track... (:
