Brother and Sister Lyrics

They said this would happen
And love would fade
I should run away now
But I will stay

(How do we act like)
Brother and sister
Brother and sister
(Mrs and Mr)

(And it's sad like)
Brother and sister
Brother and sister
(Mrs and Mr)

I wanted to know you
In every way
And I want to disown you
And still I'll stay

(Acting more like)
Brother and sister
Brother and sister
(Than Mrs and Mr)

(Keeping score like)
Brother and sister
Brother and sister
(Than Mrs and Mr)

Right's getting wrong now
And blue turns grey
I've waited so long now
'Cause the pendulum sways

(Away from)
Brother and sister
Brother and sister

(Don't wanna fight like)
Brother and sister
Brother and sister

(How to be right like)
Brother and sister
Brother and sister

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.
