So those special few, who know all my flaws, know that I am terrible when it comes to song lyrics. I always seem to hear something different that what is actually being sung. My sister had endless laughs at my expense growing up because I would proudly be singing a song and I would get lots of weird looks........and then finally I would be corrected.
Two examples:
In the late 80's there was a song called "Mr. Wendell". I proudly sang............."Mr. Rainbow"
Song by Tracy Chapman called; "Give me one Reason to stay here, and I 'll turn right back around"
I thought is said "Give me one reason to steal and I will turn right back around". This always confused me why she would turn back around after she stole something.
So, why I am confessing all of this. I regret to inform you that I think I have passed on the gene.
Tonight I heard Abigail singing a song.
The right version: "Your love, your love, is my drug"
Abigail's version: "Chilla, Chilla, is my drum"
Big smile across my face!
