Young Pretenders Army Lyrics

play with me just like a lost kitten in a tree
set it off and alternative that's never of it's knees, come along, join in on the fun yeah
??? just like commodity ??? are sold so cheap
cut it up and watch me go to sleep
yeah come on come on come on yeah, we're the young pretenders army
wow said you weren't free yeah
dead set on target just pay the fee, consume lifestyles just to be set free
and now what does this all mean to me?
play with me just like a lost kitten in a tree
set it off and alternative that's never of it's knees, come along, join in on the fun
yeah come on come on come on yeah, we're the young pretenders army
wow said you weren't free yeah
right about now, just a little more time, we're the young pretenders army
i've got just a little piece of my mind, said said what are you
we're the young pretenders army
we pretend that everything is gonna be alright, we pretend the revolution is in sight
we pretend rebellion's close at hand, we pretend we pretend we pretend yeah
we pretend we pretend yeah

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.

Almost all of T(i)NC's song say the same thing really. It's their sound that makes the band so great. This song is a great example.
