"You wore a shirt of violent green" is often heard (including by myself) as
"You wanna shag violently"

I used to mishear tons of stupid crap when I was a kid. I don't know why, but my ability to hear all but the clearest lyrics in music only really snapped into focus after I hit 20.

"You don't need to wear corduroy, just listen to me"... It's obvious, I mean what else could it be?
Funny thing is my wife used to think that was the lyric when she was a kid too...
Another from my childhood:

"Ham on rye, don't nobody worry 'bout me"... I was sure of it, until one day my my older sister laughed uncontrollably in my face saying "'Ham on rye' -- that doesn't even make sense, you idiot!"... I finally got the "I'm Alright" bit, then I felt silly...

An eight year old in 1979 doesn't know what the word "coy" means, let alone that it's even a word... but said eight year old most certainly knows about corduroys... brown ones and green ones, to be exact...contrary wrote:kbaccki wrote:

Well I have some fearsome memories from grade school concerning some female cohorts who wore corduroys and were thus a constant fire hazard !!!
( now thats a digression!... FEAR the cohorts in corduroys) Anyhow , props to mister Simon . He has the rare distinction of having penned many of what is known as a " Timeless classic"
