A Bit Like Malaproprism.....
I'm getting on a bit now (32) and not sure if its due to being old, years of listening to loud music, or what, but I constantly mis-hear things...Often I hear my hubby, slimtallgoth come out with Filth when he's innocently talking about What to Do For Tea or Have We Got Any Cider...other times I just annoy my teenager with coming out with Alternate Lyrics because I Can't Hear The Words Properly ((which is a Nightmare when your favourite band is System of a Down)) (I actually prefer my own to the Real Ones) such as:

The River - Good Charlotte...

I heard that evil comes disguised (combs the skies)
Like a city of angels
I'm walking towards the light

Baptized in the river (Bad times in the river)
I've seen a vision of my life
And I wanna be delivered (An' I wanna bit of liver)

FFWD

Now I'm trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river (Bad times in the river)
I'm delivered (On a liver)
I'm delivered (On a liver)

-This, delivered at high volume from your mum is so uncool, especially when your cutie gf is also in the car...

Well...I guess I should really be suggesting a QOTW whereby we all tell tales of being fucking well embarrassed by parents (or embarrassing our kids) intentionally or not...

Creep
For years I thought the guy was singing...
"I'm a tree
I'm a willow"

frankly, I like my mis-heard version better.

I like the embarrassing the kids/embarrassed by parents idea....could be loads of fun
(and give me ideas for when my girls hit the teen years......)
