When you think your own lyrics are better than the real ones

Exhibit a) Little Red Corvette

"A mighty fine body like yours ought to be in Jane's..."

(As in ... Defense Weekly, because it's a deadly weapon.)

Exhibit b) Alphabet Street

When Ingrid does her A, B, C thing, I always thought - rather than missing out G because it's in the key of G or whatever - that she gets to E and then goes "F*** it" because she can't be bothered going all the way to Z.

"A place in all your movies, there must have been..." Moonbeam Levels.

"we can fuck untill the dawn, making love to cherish on" - erotic city

Fun fact. The late 80s Brit indy band Lightning Seeds ("Pure") is named after misheard lyric from Raspberry Beret "Thunder drowns out what the lightning seeds"

Do you really not know what's going on there?

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.
