Goofin' With the Lyrics

Posted: July 6, 2007 - 9:31am

We've all heard 'em. Hell, we've all probably created a few, inadvertently or otherwise.

The mis-heard lyrics that are hysterically funny once you find out what the right words are. The unique version of "Truckin'" your bar band came up with. "St. Stephen," as rendered by your 6-year-old.

You get the idea. Post here.

when I first heard this song, I was sure it was 'William - T' (not Liberty) and that the song was about William Tell... I was pretty fucked up when I heard it the first time...

"What's the point of calling shots, this cue ain't straight in line
Cue balls made of styrofoam and no-one's got the time"

I actually heard Bobby sing (during Truckin')

What in the world ever became of sweet Jane?
After the sex change you know she isn't the same.

In my early listening years, during The Golden Road, I thought (I think...) 3rd verse it says...lie down smokin' honey, have yourself a ball.

I thought it said: Lie down smoke it baby, have yourself a bowl.

Some parts of Bobby's high-intensity singing during Truckin made me incapable of singing along and could almost make me think it was sung in Swahili.

A dream we dreamed one afternoon long ago...

Bob, your other half's not alone. That's what I thought it was for a long time...

Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

St. Stephen (mis-lyrics)

CharlieBoBarley

I always thought the lyrics were ..."With hair so long, he's got to calling it home!"

I guess I was picturing St. Stephen as a very long-haired hippie...

..."Been here so long" somehow makes much more sense (even to a hippie)!

Dallas, got a soft blue sheen

15 yrs of hearing this toon & I thought Dallas had some kick ass neon blue lights, which caused a "sheen"
What the hell is a "soft machine" ?
