Patridge bantam chicken poorly foot?

Hello

 

A few nights ago we had friends round for a meal and put on a few tunes for background music. As the evening progressed we started sharing stories of silly lyric mistakes we’d made when listening to various songs.

 

When CCR’s Bad Moon Rising started to play I had to admit that the first time I heard the song back in the 6th form in the 1970’s I always thought that the chorus went…..

 

“Don’t go around tonight

Well, it’s bound to take your life

There’s the bathroom on the right.”

 

Well you might want to know where the bathroom is if you’d just had a fright.

 

Later as the music mellowed Dean Martin was singing “Little Old Wine Drinker me” and OH was brave enough to share his lyric mix up.

 

“I came here last week from down in Nashville,

Cause my baby left for Florida on the train

I thought I’d get a job, and just forget her”

 

Somehow the second line sounded like

 

“Cause my baby left a fl**ter on the train.

 

He’d always thought that a little harsh to leave someone because of a flushing malfunction!!

 

 

Anyone else out there in Omletland with similar embarrassing slip ups?

that 'betty davis eyes' song

 

how come "she knows just what it takes to make a crow blush"?

oh yeah, slightly off topic, if Bert Baccarah's friends live in san jose, why don't they tell him how to get there!!!???

Madonna: La Isla Bonita - "young girl with eyes like potatoes......"

Kim Wilde: View from a bridge - "View from a pig!"

Macy Gray: "I try to say goodbye and I choke,

Try to walk away and I stumble,

though I try to hide it, it's clear,

I wore goggles when you were not near!"

(should read "my world crumbles when you are not near")

My all time fave from my son was " I wish I was a prawn cracker".

[Janty]

Rainbow sang, 'I surrender to your armpits'.

 

My son was always convinced that Britney Spears was singing directly to him....'Oh Baden Baden, how was I supposed to know?' I can only hear his name when I hear that song now.

Madonna's Erotic sounds like Bill Odie

 

But it's embarrassing knowing it says...'Bill Odie, Bill Odie, put your hands all over my body'

 

Urgh

LOL, made me chuckle

[Clash City Rocker]

Classic 70's album, still one of the biggest sellers ever.

 

"There's a man in the shadows with a "Plum" in his eye

and a blade shinning oh so bright.

Yay! Bat out of Hell! I struggle with most of that song - my version is probably completely unrecognisable

Poppadom Preach by Madonna

 

 

lol

 

I always used to think the lyrics went....

 

"Papa don't preach,

I'm in double D'

 

Should be "Papa don't preach, i'm in trouble deep"

 

Also in Michael Jacksons 'Billie Jean'.....

 

"Billie jean is at my door

She's just a girl who claims that I am the one,

The jealous not my son"

 

How I thought it was those lyrics.......they don't even make sense!

(real lyrics)

"Billie Jean is not my lover

She's just a girl who claims that I am the one,

But the kid is not my son"
