misheard song lyrics.

One of the most common ones has to from "I'd really like to see you tonight" by Englund Dan and John Ford Coley or something like that.

Misheard as... "I'm not talking about my linen"
Supposed to be (and I still deny this myself) ...
" I'm not talking about movin in" Made more famous by Samuel L Jackson when he was singing it in a movie with... oh bugger I can't remember her name, tall leggy and beautiful with dark hair? Movie might have been "Kiss of the night", then again maybe not.

My high school had assembly everyday,about 900 on the roll.We sang hymes and standard stirring songs like Men of Harleck,but also some modern stuff of the time (late 60s) like the Beatles and Englebert Humperdink.I think the music teacher liked having such a big choir to play with,from squeaky 3rd form boys to 6th form basses.But us naughty technical boys had our own lyrics,and the only time we sang loudly was when we did our alternative lyrics - it was funny to see the teachers up on stage pick it up and start searching for who was doing it....they had a pretty good idea of course.Any misdemeanour at assembly was punished by a caning,the slimmy Prefects would haul you out and you had to wait to the end to get a couple of wacks from one of the best caners in the school - it was a proud moment when I got hauled out the first time.

Or when you are called out to stand on stage and apologise to everyone for making stupid noises in assembly only to have your 3 best mates stand up and say "Don't worry mate, didn't bother us." Resulted in the whole school laughing and us 4 getting 3 weeks detention.

Hmm, "Maybe Madonna, they maybe have your dress,
"Wonder how you managed to beat the rest"

Well thats' what it sounded like to me when the Beatles first released it.

As some of you may recall from an old signature of mine, my little boy used to sing

"We will, we will ROCKING HORSE" (Queen - we will rock you)

Absolutely crippled myself laughing the first time I heard it

I often wondered what that was all about.

From my better half at a younger age, from Grease, instead of meditatate in my direction
"meditate a mad erection"

I thought it was: meditatate my affection.

Thinking of that song reminds me of how my 6 year old sings it: "you better shut up."

There's a line in there that I've never understood:

"Little early-burly kept my anus curly-wurly".

Blinded by the light
revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night (fading)

Madman dummers bummers,
Indians in the summer,
With a teenager diplomat
And the dumps with the mumps
As the adolescent pumps his way into his hat

With a boulder my shoulder,
feeling kinda older,
I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasin', sneezin' and wheezin,
the calliope crashed to the ground
(pickup)
the calliope crashed to the ground

(chorus)

Some silicon sister with a manager mister
told me I go what it takes.
I'll run you on sonny to something strong
play the song with the funky break

And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the
weather charts see if it was safe outside
And little Early Burly came by in his curly wurly
and asked me if i needed a ride
(pickup)
asked me if i needed a ride

(chorus)

Bridge: She got down but she never got tired
She's gonna make it to the night
She's gonna make it through the night

(break with soul-stirring solo)

Oh momma that's where the fun is
But momma that's where the fun is
Momma always told me not to look
in the eye's on the sun
But momma that's where the fun is

(chop sticks variation)

So brimstone-baritone, anti-cyclone Rolling Stone
Preacher from the East,
says dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in it's funny bone
thats what they expect at least

It's a new grown chaperon standing in the corner
watching the young girls dance
and some fresh sown moonstone messing with his frozen zone,
only reminding him of romance
(pickup)
and the calliope crashed to the ground

(Chorus)

(Chorus and First Verse)

Now Scott with the sling-shot finally found a tender spot
and throws his lover in the sand
and some blood-shot forget-me-not
said Daddy's within earshot, save the buck-shot, turn up the band

(repeat Verse 2 "Silicon sister with a manager....")
(bridge)

best version is by manfred man....bruce's version was crap!!!
