Every time the iPod serves up the Spacehog tune "The Last Dictator", I always hear the chorus as "Elastic Tater"...

Ed Foster said...: Spacehog? You listen to Spacehog? Damn, Ma'am, I thought I was the only old Queen fan who saw them as the second coming of Freddie Mercury and Brian May.

The boys do make the miles disappear in the rear view mirror.

My daughter finds it amusing that I listen to them. But when she's cranking "Play The Game" or "Bicycle Race" she doesn't notice the incongruety.; 8:08 AM, January 25, 2010

Will said...: Anytime I get the chance to read the lyrics of old songs, especially rock-n-roll, I find that what I thought I heard is not exactly what they sang. Sometimes I discover this when listening to the radio, which is puzzling.; 2:30 PM, January 25, 2010
Adrian K said...: Interesting.

When I get to work in the morning, the earworm dispenser in my head sometimes pops out lyrics for Pink Floyd's 'Brain Damage' set to tune of "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town".
