    You picked a fine time to leave me Lucile, 400 children and a crop in the field.... that old Kenny Rogers song...
     
    should be 4 hungry children, but you couldn't have told me any different when I was a kid, argued with my brother for hours about it and even called the radio station trying to prove my point... was mad when he was right and not me.

    I thought those were the lyrics too.  I didn't understand them until I saw Disturbed in concert.  Then they were very clear.
    BTW- I love the monkey noise!

    DH's misunderstood lyric is one of my favorite song-flubs.
     
    "Dirty Jobs and The Thunderchiefs!!"....should be "Dirty Jobs, and they're done dirt cheap". I near about died laughing when I heard him sing it.
     
    My best friend and I woudl always listen to the Spin Doctors in the car. For the longest time, she swore that "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong" was "Little Miss Pepperoni".

    Do you mean the song by AC/DC?  It's "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap".
     
    My bonehead song was "I Want a New Drug" by Huey Lewis & the News.  I thought it was "I Want a New Truck".

    For the longest time I thought that in Pink Floyd's "The Wall" it was, "No thought orgasms in the classroom"

    When it's REALLY, "No dark sarcasm in the classroom".

    D'OH.

    When I was very young I thought it was "For he's a jolly good fellow, which nobody candy knives."
    Didn't make sense, but since when did anything grown-ups said make sense? [:D]
