We Are The Now Lyrics

Want me to be like you are.
Young and stupid just like this world.
Can't keep me down with your rules.
Join together and we'll burn down the schools... cause'
We are the now... we want the world. (x4)
Ya, so? I can't drink or drive.
Can't vote. And no... I don't smoke.
Got my wisdom and I got my pride.
Bear it all. Got nothin' to hide.
We are the now... we want the world. (x4)
Kick in your face!
With steel toe!
Smash in your teeth!
With one more blow!
Blood in your eyes...
Blood on your hands...
Got my revenge!
Fucked up your plans!

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.
