Lyrics Epiphany

So I just had a moment of realization. I always thought the words to "Oh L'amour" by Erasure went like this:

oh l'amour
broke my heart
now I'm making for you

but it turns out that it really goes like this:

oh l'amour
broke my heart
now I'm aching for you

Hmm. That makes a lot more sense. Go figure...

It's always so funny hearing people sing the wrong lyrics. (I do it all the time.) My favorite was when my friend was singing M.C. Hammer's "Can't Touch This" back in elementary school. She was singing, "Take justice" instead. So funny.

Without fail I sing the wrong words to possibly song there is...I'm not a word person- I just like the tune, and pretend to know the words. Funny story! It was so good to talk to you today!

How about CCR's "There's a bathroom on the right."

Haha! I always think my kids are funny when they're singing the wrong words to a song, and then I'll look up the lyrics to songs that I'm trying to sing along too, and then I realize I'm almost as bad as they are.

Also, I had completely forgotten about Erasure! I think I need to go download some of their songs.
