Ye Highlands and ye Lowlands,
Oh, where hae ye been?
They hae slain the Earl Amurray,
And Lady Mondegreen.

Many years ago I was at the theatre watching that godawful Lily Tomlin/Bette Midler movie where they both played twins. Don't remember the name, don't care.

Anywho, at the end credits Steve Winwood's song (Higher Love) was playing. You probably know the chorus where he (and Chaka Khan) are singing "Bring Me a Higher Love"

My Mom starts singing "Bring me an iron lung." People who came into the theatre after we left probably thought it was a sad movie because I laughed so hard at my Mom that I had mascara running down my face.

Also, my older sister used to think the lyrics to that Ramones song "I wanna be sedated" was "I wanna pizza baby."

And my younger sister had this friend who thought Genesis' "Invisible Touch" chorus lyrics were (instead of "She seems to have an invisible touch")
"Have you seen my hat, it's on the top shelf, yeah."

Not the same thing, but when I saw the Eagles in concert years ago, Joe Walsh sang (in Life's Been Good): They write Tim letters, tell Glenn Don's great."

Got into a long, brutal argument in 7th grade with my friend John who had moved up from Silicon Valley to Oregon and who was already well versed in the worldly ways of hard rock and metal. He got me into AC/DC and Van Halen, among others.

Anyway, he was the one with the experienced background and so he knew very well that the main lyric from AC/DC's "Dirty Deeds" was "Dirty deeds and the Thunder Chief", which to me was almost nauseatingly absurd. I'm not sure if I knew it was really "done dirt cheap" but I knew it was nothing as supremely geeky as "Thunder Chief" since Bon Scott was infinitely too manly and cool for that. Years later one of my roommates had a cartoon illustrated book of misheard lyrics and they had it down as "Thirty thieves and the Thunder Chief".

Yea, the Joe Cocker is uproarious. That will get emailed around a bit, I think.
