| "...The New York Times don't pay my rent" by Commander Tansin A. Darcos 06/08/2014, 1:33am PDT | ||||

| There is a term used for mishearing lyrics in a song, the word is "mondegreen." It comes from a famous song f the middle ages where a soldier in a battle was killed by his enemy, "and he laid him on the green" but some people misunderstood the words as "and the Lady Mondegreen."
This went on for quite a while in my case with the song "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees. There was one part of the song which I had thought was We don't try To understand The New York Times don't pay my rent. Until one day I heard my brother singing along. We can try To Understand The New York Times affect on man. The funny thing is as soon as I heard it, I knew he was right and I'd been hearing it wrong. A radio station here made fun of this when it had a guy singing along to Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Bad Moon Rising" in which the line There's a bad moon on the right Is misunderstood as There's a bathroom on the right. And Jimmy Hendrix' "Purple Haze" has the line "'Scxuse me while I kiss the sky," misinterpreted as "'Scuse me while I kiss this guy." |
