Lyrics you've got wrong

I cant remember the actual song maybe @stackitsteve can.

But growing up our grandad used to sing
Hoover, go out and get your hoover instead of the actual lyrics

He also used to sing My ears are alite instead of The Israelites

I used to sing

I'm a bee, i'm a bee up in town, i'm a bee up in town, i'm a bee up in town.

Instead of

I'm blue da ba dee da ba daa
Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa

Driving down to a family Christmas I was playing the Proclaimers, Throw the R away. My dad piped up, can you put something else on, I can't understand a word they are saying. I almost crashed the car from laughing.

I always thought that Madonna in La Isla Bonita sang “I fell in love with some Deigo” rather than “I fell in love with San Pedro.”
Next time you hear it you’ll see what I mean.....it’s uncanny.

What a coincidence. I was listening to it just now... Didn't notice that line though.
