Singing the wrong wordsThere's a grand tradition of singing the wrong words to jingles, hymns and the dreaded school songs. Or maybe you have a corporate anthem too cheesy for words? Tell us the alternate words you and your friends sang so that we can too.

The innocence of youthAaahhh. The good old "misheard carol songs". I used to sing "Har the Herald angel sings" and wondered for a long time precisely who this "Har" was and why he wasn't mentioned elsewhere in the nativity story.
Also in Away in a Manger I thought that "Little Lorjesus" was an alternative epithet for the baby.
Here's an absolute classic:
A small child was drawing a lovely picture of the nativity at school. He had drawn Mary, Joseph, little baby Jesus, shepherds and animals....and a giant blob in the middle. When asked what said blob was supposed to represent, the child replied, "That's round John Virgin".
