I actually heard it correctly for YEARS, as I was quite familiar with the quote. Then I came here, and it's been all lemony cake ever since.

The "lemony cake" thing is hilarious but it never would have occured to me on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_G Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 "Plenty of people will kill you, For some fun and a good cause" ahem. "Look around this world we've made, The quality of stock exchange, Come and join the Brotherhood of Man" ...kinda subverts the meaning of the song in hindsight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, I've been listening to that album since like 1976 and never discovered it before. By The Way, which Mike Myers are you refering to? The Wayne's World guy or some other one?

greyfriar Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 As a kid, I was 15 at the time, I've always wondered why there are 'eight million Red Barchettas from a better vanished time'. That was senceless for a long time until I looked it up in the lyric sheet of the vinyl and went ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ioc Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 ...of course that was before I knew how to speak "Geddy" Now I rarely, if ever, mishear lyrics.

You should tell her it's about a guy who floated down a river on a raft with a black guy. That's not Tom Sawyer! That's Huckleberry Finn stupid! Duhh!

Bangster of Goats Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 "The clowns prepare for battle..." I can never hear Fly By Night right ever again... years ago someone mentioned the "chickens are coming and I just can't pretend" thing to me and ever since then... And back when Tom Sawyer was brand new I thought it was about Space Invaders too, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
