Lyrics you THOUGHT were misunderstood but weren't

[Beware the Beast Man]

"So they rode on his head on their furry donkey." Happy Jack, The Who

I had know idea that was the real lyric. I thought I made it up.

[amber dog democrat]

1. Lets do some living - after we die, Rolling Stones

Wild Horses.... it really does say that. Makes no sense at all.

[donhakman]

2. Don't go out tonight

Its bound to take your life
There's a bathroom on the right.

[billybob537]

5. creedence

there's a bad moon on the rise.

[eyesroll]

3. I was amazed when I found out Destiny's Child really was singing about

jelly.

Didn't make sense. Still doesn't.

[Beware the Beast Man]

4. Me too.

I thought it was "i don't think you're ready for this yet, and-". Jelly just made no sense. Good example! :hi:

9. KY

jelly

[Imperialism Inc.]

6. Crazy Fingers

Your rain falls like crazy fingers
Peals of fragile thunder keeping time

Recall the days that still are to come
Some sing blue

[TrogL]

7. Someone left the cake out in the rain

McArthur Park

Of course, none of that song makes any fucking sense. Ahknaten told me McArthur Park is a favourite druggie place.

[indigobusiness]

8. You had "know" idea?

Is that a subtle statement over my head?

[skypilot]

10. "...when the dogs begin to smell her...

...will she smell alone?"

--Stone Temple Pilot.

:shrug:

[soleft]

11. Tatoos and memories and dead skin on trial

[Texasgal]

12. Ohhhhh! Check this doozy out!

The WHOLE song is weird.......Manfred Mann.....




Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Madman drummers bummers,
Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder,
feelin' kinda older,
I tripped the merry-go-round

With this very unpleasin',
sneezin' and wheezin,
the calliope crashed to the ground
The calliope crashed to the ground

But she was...
Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I go what it takes
She said "I'll turn you on sonny to something strong, play the song with the funky break"
And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe outside
And little Early-Pearly came by in his curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride
Asked me if I needed a ride

But she was...
Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night
Blinded by the light

She got down but she never got tired
She's gonna make it through the night
She's gonna make it through the night

------ guitar solo ------

But mama, that's where the fun is
But mama, that's where the fun is
Mama always told me not to look into the eye's of the sun
But mama, that's where the fun is

Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone preacher from the east
Says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in it's funny bone, that's where they expect it least"
And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner, watching the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone, reminding him of romance
The calliope crashed to the ground

But she was...
Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

:wtf:

[Kat45]

14. That's a Springsteen song

Manfred Mann covered it (and had a hit with it). Same with "Spirits in the Night." A lot of Springsteen's early songs crammed a whole bunch of rhymes into them.

[Beware the Beast Man]

13. Shake up the picture, the lizard mixture

New Moon on Monday, Duran duran

They cornered the market on strange lyrics.
