Smoking cool

Perfect "Sunday Music"...

    1. Misheard lyrics can throw up some real corkers, like these:

      - Daft Punk’s ‘Get Lucky’: “Like the legend of the penis” (“Like the legend of the Phoenix”)
      - Bryan Adams’ ‘Summer of 69’: “I got my first real sex dream” (“I got my first real six-string”)
      - The Police’s ‘Message In A Bottle’: “A year has passed since I broke my nose” (“A year has passed since I wrote my note”)
      - Jimi Hendrix ‘Purple Haze’: “Scuse me while I kiss this guy” (“Scuse me while I kiss the sky”)

      Jx

    2. My brother had to explain to me that the Tubes' song was "white punks on dope" and not "white pumps are gauche."
