Bearded CLAM and other misnomers....

.



We've all done it. Listenned to a Prince lyric and hillariously misunderstood it.

I have three:

I used to think (mind you I was 12) that Raspberry Berret was Raspberry PARADE.
"She wore a Raspberry Parade--the kind U find in a second stand store"

And from ERotic City:
"Punksta-Cramy human jive, Nuerotic See me Come alive."

And from New Position:
"Cotton-head, lemme do ya...Cotton-head, what do ya on?"


OH, Shit--the list goes on and on.

I sang this for years and sometimes still do by mistake sad

Can anyone guesss which song was butchered?

LOL.

How can I put this in a way so as not to offend or unerve!!!!



I used to sing that song sooooo much, my roomate (who hated Prince, but now is a fan) used to say "U can't, so shut up."

I thought the same thing when I first heard it! I found out it was "Beret" when I saw the title on one of those "street sheets" printed up by a local radio station.

Anyway, here are some more misunderstood lyrics (by me, at least):

In "Paisley Park":
Whoever said that leopards were stronger than mules?

In "Kiss":
Hey no particular sign o' mokum pacta bull whip

In "Thieves In The Temple":
Fusses from the skies, they rely on yo bear's friend 2 pool u thru
