Band Name Origins:
- "Squeeze" was the name of the Velvet Underground's final album, made after all four original members (Reed, Cale, Tucker, Morrison) had left and Doug Yule was the leader. VU has disowned the album (I mean, come on, NO original members? That is *not* the VU). Apparently, a band in the U.S. had the name Squeeze, and their first album (the one with "Take Me I'm Yours") was titled "U.K. Squeeze." Submitted by: plasket

"Pulling Mussels From The Shell"
Misheard Lyrics: Two bag ladies window shop
Something for the mantlepiece April bingo all at night The pannapa sweet little niece. Original Lyrics: Two fat ladies window shopping
Something for the mantlepiece In for bingo on the nines A panda for sweet little niece. | "Cool For Cats"
Misheard Lyrics: The swing is doing ninety 'cause they've got nowhere to go
They'll get a gang of villains in a shed up that they throw They're counting out the fivers when the ear comes back again In and out of Wantsworth with another Sunday night It's funny how the missus always looks so bleedin' sane And meanwhile at the station there's a couple of likely lads Who're swiller as your father and they're very cool for cats Original Lyrics: The Sweeney's doing ninety 'cause they've got the word to go
They'll get a gang of villains in a shed up at Heathrow They're counting out the fivers when the handcuffs lock again In and out of Wandsworth with the numbers on their names It's funny how the missus always looks the bleedin' same And meanwhile at the station there's a couple of likely lads Who swear like how's your father and they're very cool for cats |

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:
"Up The Junction"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: I got a job with Stanley, who said I'd come in handy.
Why They're Misrhymed: My mum couldn't get on with the rhyming on this, thinking Glenn Tilbrook should have sung 'I got a job with Sandy...' 'Stanley' always makes me think of a factory that makes Stanley knives.
