Like Jesus Christ with John the Baptist (is this quite correct ? :Ed), I have my first follower-and such a good one (the lady who inspired me to blog in the first place). Must mind the old Ps and Qs now.
Anyway, just thought I'd mention a couple of wrongly heard song lyrics which are (IMHO) as good as or better than the original.
There's
"'Scuse me while I kiss the sky" (Jimi Hendrix) which can easily be heard as "'Scuse me while I kiss this guy": surely a line just as redolent of the hedonism of the 60s as the 'real' one.
Also
"Going down the old mine with a transistor radio" (Van Morrison) which I genuinely thought for years was actually "Gunning down the old man with a transistor radio": which of us hasn't done that in their imagination?
