I'm not joking either, that's how I've heard it. Guess it pays to read the lyrics. I know the correct lyrics, but when I'm singing, unless I'm really thinking about it, I sing "all through your days" 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? ya that Mike Myers! I remember him talking about it in an interview.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangster of Goats Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) "All f***ed up with vanity, we see what we want to see..." I didn't actually hear it that way when I first heard the album, but I can *make* myself hear it that way. And, not really misheard lyrics, more of a mistaken meaning, but for some time I thought Passage to Bangkok was about strife and war around the world. I bought Exit Stage Left long before 2112 and didn't have the printed lyrics handy, and while listening to ESL I heard references to "smoke in Lebanon" and "blahblahblah Afghanistan" under this sinister-sounding music and so I thought it was about war. Then I got 2112 and read the lyrics and was like "...oh! LOL!" And then, for a little while, I thought the toke-hit sound was supposed to be a train whistle, haha. But then one day it dawned on me "oh wait... I see what they did there..." Edited May 24, 2012 by Bangster of Goats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnoble Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 2112: "We've taken care of everything the words you EAT the songs you sing.... and later "..never need to work or have a wife..." At the time I really thought those were the words given the context of the song Working Man, the beginning: "I get up at seven-YAY!..." Working Man, at the end: "Well they call me the working MAID!" The first time I listened to Beneath Between and Behind, I didn't understand ONE WORD he sang....Not one!: "Plastic dreams come due inventing subcanoe..."
