Thursday
"in this house of cards, we are all holding hearts." some people have a natural talent to decipher lyrics -- justin -- but i lack in this area. it takes me weeks of a cd on repeat before i get anything down. sometimes even seeking help from the lyric booklet. however, i have come up with some mighty great mishearings:
Goodbye Sky Harbor --- Jimmy Eat World
what i heard: "you are smothered kitten, smothered kitten."
actual: "you are smaller, getting smaller."
Swallowed --- Bush
what i heard: "i wish everyone an eggnog. an eggnog."
actual: "i'm with everyone yet not, i'm with with everyone yet not."
i can't remember the other ones i've butchered without listening to the song. although, "Freak" by Silverchair and "Today" by Smashing Pumpkins both had strange interpretations until i figured out that i was wrong. then i couldn't remember my mistake.
