Today I was listening to a child singing along to 'I will leave the light on' by Tom Walker. Only they didn't know the words and thought it said I will eat bananas. Really made me chuckle.
It reminded me of when I was a kid and thought Gala was singing 'my incense is purified' in the song Freed from Desire. I always wondered what purified incense was.
What have you been singing wrong? |

When we had to get lyrics from a cassette tape of the top 40 many words were incorrect being sung by cover bands. I could never figure out the REM song that included the lyrics "covered in chow veka" / |

"Hot dog, jumping frog, my uncle Bob!
I used to sing "Hot Dog, Jumping Frog, Albert Turkey" "
That sounds more like the real words! Haha! I just heard what I wanted to, I think. |

Dunno but how cool would it be to have a Turkey called Albert! |

A lad I worked with briefly sang almost everything wrong but one that stuck in my mind he used to sing the “Cupid draw back your bow” line with “Cupid draw back you clothes” which I found more than a bit strange he would think it’s that’s since Cupid is a baby |

Michael Jackson, Beat it
"I want hot fucking in the daylight.
It doesn't matter who's cock all night
Just beat it beat it beat it
Eat it eat it eat it"
Check it out. It's real
MJ's songs are ripe for liberal sprinkling of words that sound like fuck and cock. Lmao |

We don't need no education, we don't need no bought cologne...
I was primary age, and there was always old spice adds on the TV...
But it did get me into a real vibe with PinK Floyd, and exploring their other albums!
Wish you were here is epic... and really looking forward to hearing the use of Dark Side cover(s) in Dune movie. |

Ha Ha... Is that the same teacher Sting and the Police sung about...? "
No it's from The Wall by Pink Floyd.
Who also said....
"All in all you're just another prick with a ball" |

I know of someone who thinks it's "Uptown funky worm, uptown funky worm!"
And later.. "Too hot! Hot men. The po-lice and the firemen. Too hot! Hot men..."
TBF those who run into fires will be hot. |
