Who's struttin now!?

Story about this misheard lyric by: Ezra

One time, before I knew the lyrics, some guy was requesting this song on the radio, but he didn't know the name or the artist. He sang the chorus on the radio. I wasn't paying attention until the DJ said, 'Oh! that's 'For Kicks' by Kings of Leon,'. I was disappointed, because I didn't get to listen to what the guy was saying.

Nonsensical Lyrics:

"The Bucket"

The Nonsensical Lyrics:

I'll be the one to show you the way You'll be the one to always complain 3 in the morning come a bang bang bang All out of fags and I just can't wait Cancel the thing that I said I'd do I don't feel comfortable talking to you Unless you got the zipper fixed on my shoe Then I'll be in the lobby drinking for two Eighteen Balding Star Golden Falling Heart Look at the shaky's what's with the blush? fresh off the plane in my fuzzy rush Everyone's gathered to idolize me I hate the way you talk, your japanese scream It's been too long since i've left the shed You kick the bucket, I'll swing my legs Always remember the pact that we made Too young to die, but old is the grave Eighteen Balding Star Golden Falling Heart im a gonna show the way im a gonna show the way im a gonna show the way im a gonna show the way Eighteen Balding Star

Why They're Nonsensical:

They just really do not make sense. Awesome song though. But the whole thing is a crock as far as the lyrics making sense.
