Bit Part Lyrics

I want a bit part in your life a walk on would be fine I just want a bit part in your life a bit part in your life I want a bit part in your life a walk on would be fine I just want a bit part in your life a bit part in your life a little more than a cameo nothing tramatic when I go I want a bit part in your life a walk on would be fine I just want a bit part in your life I want a bit part in your life rehearsing all the time I just want a bit part in your life a little more than a stand in won't need repremanding

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.

also, don't just assume he wants MORE than a bit part. He might want a bit part in several different ...shows.

This song is genius, The concept of a 'bit part' is like say two or three lines in a film/programe and then your finished, so yeah pretty self explanitory, He basically say he wants a role in this girls life story. Love it ^-^

This petition's trickiest aspect is that in the beginning you settle with a bit part, "a little more than a cameo", but from then on you want a bigger part, and the even a bigger one, until you're hooked up by being the main character.

The question is

does he want a bit part because he knows even asking for that is asking for a lot or because he wants a small role, i.e. responsibility?
