Lost in a Fantasy Lyrics

Johnny changed his name to speedo though he never owed a car.
When the drag was down on main street,he'd be wish'en on a star.
Then one day he made some money on some heavy duty deals.
Turned some money over easy,spent it on a set of wheels...
Now he's lost in a fantasy.
He doesn't seem real to me.
Johnny's lost in a fantasy (lost in a fantasy)
He doesn't seen real to me, whoo-who (he's lost)
Johnny changed his name to Elvis, though he couldn't play a tune.
Plays guitar like a chainsaw, said he'd be a legend soon.
Then one day he made a demo, wrote the songs, played all the parts.
Now he's front page news on "Rolling Stone", with records on the charts.
Now he's lost in a fantasy.
He doesn't seem real to me.
Johnny lost in a fantasy (lost in a fantasy)
He doesn't seem real to me, whoo-who (he's lost)

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.
