Misheard Lyrics Stories:

"Kids In America"

Misheard Lyrics:

We got crisps and a 'Marathon'.

Original Lyrics:

We're the kids in America.

Story about this misheard lyric by: pollygarter

Many years ago a work colleague told me she'd sung these lyrics for years before anyone pointed out the song was not about crisps and sweeties! The song had passed out of my memory, until I was watching Jimmy Neutron the other day with my kids and the song came on. Of course I couldn't stop singing the confectionary version.

Dirty Song Lyrics:

"Kids In America"

The Dirty Lyrics:

Come closer honey, that's better
Got to get a brand new experience feeling right
Oh, don't try to stop baby Hold me tight

Why They're Dirty:

If you think about it, the first line infers that the person Kim is singing to, she's drawing them closer to her, and the experience bit is about trying something a bit passionate for the first time, and Kim doesn't want to stop.
