Its not ME!!

So I have long had the reputation of totally butchering song lyrics... I guess there are worse reputations to have. ;^)  The person this has tickled most has to be my BFF.  Probably because she knows every lyric to EVERY song ever made!! Or I guess it could be that I always botch the lyrics in front of her. HA  In my defense, I recorded snippets from the 'questionable' songs....








Example #1  Trace Adkins "Gone Fishin"- Perfectly cute song about a Daddy happy to be making memories with his daughter.  We are in the car and I am singing (or a clown was being strangled) and I sing "Nuttin too malnicious"  I say to BFF what is malnicious?  She is like huh?  He said nuttin too ambitious and I am like nawwww he said MALNICIOUS.  New word created right there- Mal-ni-cio-us = to be ambitiously malicious.   Someone call Websters stat...





Example #2 The Script "For the first time"- On my way to pick up BFF at work, I hear this and am blown away that the local radio station wouldn't bleep out a cuss word.  She gets in the car and I say I cant believe it but they just played the cuss word.  She said what cuss word?  I said listen.... "drinking cheap bottles of wine, sh*t talking up all night." She is laughing and says nooo it is sit talking.  Sit Talking?  Like what is that? I mean if we arent gonna sh*t talk each other and say that your grandma wears combat boots..I am not interested in being up all night.  Just saying.....





Example #3- Saved the best for last but I can't take credit for this doozy. :)  Working at Central Hardware, we would listen to the radio while we were closing up at night.  A cashier asked me to turn it up because she LOVED this song.  It was from the second Karate Kid movie.  So she is singing, "I am a man who will fight for Euroanna"  I said what did you just say.  She said it again.  I said what is Euroanna?  She shrugged and said "I guess a country in Europe??"   Best lyric mess up EVER!!
