Misheard Lyrics Story:

"Hey Ya!"
Misheard Lyrics:
Shake it like a polliwog creature.
Original Lyrics:
Shake it like a Polaroid picture.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Scary Shari

I've heard this song DOZENS of times, yet all it ever sounded like to me was "polliwog creature". Polliwogs DO shake/shimmy when they swim, so that part made sense, but calling a polliwog a 'creature' is very redundant. So that's what tipped me off that I might be mis-hearing the lyrics. LOL

"Dracula's Wedding"
The Inappropriate Lyrics:
I wait my whole life to bite the right one
Then you come along and that freaks me out
So I'm frightened... Dracula's wedding
Why They're Inappropriate:
Andre must've re-read his lyrics and realised: 'hey, the title! I haven't added it in!' so threw it in wherever. Where on Earth did Dracula's Wedding come from? It has nothing to do with what's been sung already up to this point and after it too, come to think about it.
