Alex's Song Lyrics

Picked up the girl
And he sailed around the world
Why not?
What else have you got?
If you're not
Anyone that I like
Love Will give me the moon
Whoops
And beyond these voices
And danced on the groove
In a dream forever
Starts when you wake up
Starts when you wake up

Picked up the girl
And he sailed around the world
What?
Oh yeah sorry
Around the world
Why not?
What else has he got?
I don't know
And I know
I don't know
Love will give me the moon
Oh dear
And beyond these voices
And danced on the groove
In a dream forever
Starts when you wake up
Starts when you wake u

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.

Wow. This is kind of haunting. I've never heard the song but the lyrics remind me of a bad situation of the past.

i find the high pitched voice to be very annoying in here, though i do love the guitars.

It was originally on an Alvin and the Chipmunks' album, I believe.
