Lyrics you've got wrong

IdleHans

From Frank Turner's 'Reasons Not to Be an Idiot':

'She's all wrapped up in her invisible llama'

’Groove is in the Heart’ by Deelite.

I always thought she was singing ’Roses in the hall’
Even now I’m suspicious that she sneaks a few ’Roses in the hall’ into the song.

This bit from bat out of hell "On a silver-black phantom bike" I heard 'like a cilla black fan on ice" I mean what the actual fuck was I thinking

I could have sworn he says “Cilla Black fan” too!

The thought of Meatloaf being a Cilla Black fan is quite sweet.

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.

Ditto.

Gordon Brown, texture like sun
Lays me down, with my mind she runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with Gordon Brown.

I think it was journalist Gary Crowley who told a totally bemused Weller that he originally thought the Town called Malice line of:-

"Hanging out your old love letters, on the line to dry" 

WAS

"Hanging out your old Lambrettas🤣

I have only been into rock n roll for about forty-seven years, and if I have heard "The Girl Can't Help It" once, I have heard it 1000 times (probably more). I have always been a bit unsure of the fourth line, but have happily sung "When she walks by the flashlights turn to toast" for years. Now I know that doesn't make a great deal of sense, but you are talking about a man who sang "Bama-lama-bama-loo" and imortalised "Awopbopaloobopawopbamboom", so a flaky lyric can be expected. 

I finally got round to looking up what the Georgia Peach actually sang. Apparently it's "the bread slice turn to toast"...

Suddenly it all makes sense. 😶‍🌫️
