Misheard Lyrics:

"Bette Davis Eyes"
Misheard Lyrics:
Hot the bathtub just to please you
She's precocious
And she knows just what it takes to make a crow blush
She got credit cards stand off sighs
She's got better days besides

All the boys think she's a spaz
She's got better days besides.
Original Lyrics:
All the better just to please you
She's precocious
And she knows just what it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo stand off sighs
She's got Bette Davis eyes

All the boys think she's a spy
She's got Bette Davis eyes.
"Bette Davis Eyes"
Misheard Lyrics:
And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
How the bathtub jives to please you
Original Lyrics:
And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you.
"Bette Davis Eyes"
Misheard Lyrics:
She's got better days of size.
Original Lyrics:
She's got Bette Davis eyes.
"Bette Davis Eyes"
Misheard Lyrics:
And she knows just what it takes to make your blood rush
She's got a pair of goggles, standard-size
She's got Bette Davis eyes.
Original Lyrics:
And she knows just what it takes to make a pro blush
She's got Greta Garbo stand-up sighs
She's got Bette Davis eyes.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Chris

I was 11 when this came out, and I just loved the sound of this song. But I just couldn't picture a bathtub getting up and jiving to please anyone. That all ended when I read the lyrics on the sleeve inside the record cover.

Funny Lyrics:

"Bette Davis"
The Funny Lyrics:
'All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes'
Why They're Funny:
So, all the boys mistook her for a *spy* because of her droopy eyes?! 'Hey, Mike, check out that girl in our English class! Look at those eyes! Do you think she's a spy for the kgb or something?' I know cold war hysteria was pretty high in 1982, but that line always struck me as a desperate leap in logic!
