Welcome to Suburbia Lyrics

Welcome to Suburbia
Welcome to the rest of your life.

There's no need to worry,
No asking why.
Never a sad day.
We'll wipe those tears from your eyes.

Welcome to the rest of your life.

Life's been so unkind to you,
Never does what you want it to.
We've got cul-de-sacs and barbecues in Suburbia.
Welcome to the rest of your life.

Lay down your burden,
Rest your blurry eyes.
No room for sorrow,
Leave all your weariness behind.

Welcome to Suburbia,
Welcome to the rest of your life.
Welcome to Suburbia,
Welcome to the rest of your life.

We've got welcome mats and local news in Suburbia.

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.
