The things they sing and what we hear

[shazrasha]

Well after a discussion about the songs we had stuck in our heads last night (I had Rihanna's Unfaithful and K had Kenny the Kangaroo – with the added boings) we went on to discuss songs that we had misheard the lyrics too.
Mainly due to K mentioning what she had listened to at work and how she had heard it wrong.

Among the contenders for best in song were:

I think I'd better Deep Fry it now – By Will Young (Courtesy of my Dad)

I am the Lord of the Dance Settee! – As sung by K for years until she saw what it really was...

And the final one that had K in hysterics – Wii wii girl by The Pet Shop Boys. Hysterics not helped by the fact that she had misheard what I had said and had thought they were saying "want it back" Or some such
(The spelling is due to the now classic Nintendo joke)

"I'm as guillty - guilty as a drunken bee" I used to thing Banarama sang......

I had
"Clothes line Alice" for Close Thine Eyes...
and "I see trolls on the way" rather than "I see trouble on the way" for dark moon rising...

I also thought the Spice girls song "I'm going to make you holler" was even more dodgy sounding as I thought they sang "harder"...oooh er!
