anyone here have that series of books about misheard lyrics? Excuse Me While I Kiss This Guy, I’ve Got The Whole World In My Pants, etc.
the thing about these “misheard” lyrics is that they sometimes sound so fake, that I think they might be made up. Thinking No Doubt’s “Spiderwebs” has a line about “an evil mass of gel will call you back”? Really, general public? I think I got that when that album came out and I was 5 or 6. I didn’t even know what “screening your phone calls” meant.
