Somebody once told me the world was macaroni
So I took a bite out of a tree.

Somebody once told me the world was macaroni
so I took a bite out of a tree.
It tasted kinda funky
so I spat it at a monkey
and the monkey started cussin at me.

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

Story about this misheard lyric by: Dan

I was channel surfing earlier in the day, and came across 'Marcus Welby, MD' somewhere. Then I heard the song for the first time that evening on the radio while driving. I probably heard it because Marcus Welby was still fresh in my subconscious.

Only shooting stars break the mold

I got bored and counted how many times 'but you're the Fonz' was said one day...thirty four times in all. I would like to think that most people understand the concept of the line 'but you're the Fonz' the first or second time, but hey, one can never be to sure...

Submitted by: Carrie

The Misrhymed Lyrics:
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
Why They're Misrhymed:
I admit that 'differ' is a tough word to rhyme, but this is still pretty sad.

Dated Lyrics:

"Walkin' on the Sun"
The Dated Lyrics:
Twenty-five years ago they spoke out and they broke out
Of recession and oppression and together they toked...
Why They're Dated:
This song was released in 1997. '25 years ago' refers to 1972. When this song is played 25 years from now, the reference will be inaccurate.
