another idiot I knew insisted that the Pearl Jam song Jeremy had the lyric Jeremy smoked in class today.
I've listed to that song for decades, and also thought that was the line.I'm not talkin 'bout the linen...
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I thought it was douche also. Finally the answer to my question, after all these years.“wrapped up like a douche in the middle of the night” the lyrics are actually “Revved up like a Deuce another runner in the night”
Deuce referring to a 1932 Ford.
Also when I hear the knack’s “my Sharona”
I always hear Cheech & Chong’s lyrics “my scrotum” pronounce scarotum
In one cover, the singer actually says "douche".Thank you, thank you, thank you. I thought it was douche also. Finally the answer to my question, after all these years.
reminds me of a few. At one fast food place I worked everyone behind the counter thought one song had the lyrics please go away instead of go all the way.Girl I once knew thought Johnny Rivers was singing about a “Secret Asian Man,” and thought the chorus to Panama by Van Halen was “Burn Em Up!”
Shit. I thought the same thing... until I read your post and looked it up.A friend of ours had a funny interpretation of a line in Dire Straits, Money For Nothing.
She heard "Get your money for nothing and you checks for free" - lol
Now thats all I can think of when that soneg comes on
I thought it was... "get your chicks for free".Shit. I thought the same thing... until I read your post and looked it up.
Thanks for opening my eyes but it's a little embarrassing.
That is correct.I thought it was... "get your chicks for free".
My roommate thought it was “Animal”.and thought the chorus to Panama by Van Halen was “Burn Em Up!”
My wife was belting out "She is a woman" one day and I just shook my head. She absolutely tortures song lyrics. My favorite of hers is "Pretty Little Love Song" by Marshall Tucker.I know I’ve got a couple for myself, but I can’t think of them right now. However, some friends of mine have provided a couple of classics:
“medieval woman” instead of “evil woman”. [ELO].![]()
