"I Think We're Alone Now"
Misheard Lyrics: Children behave
That's what they say when we're together. Original Lyrics: 'Children, behave!'
That's what they say when we're together. |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Raddmann Gee This isn't really a 'misheard' lyric, just a misinterpreted lyric. I always thought they meant that when these two people were together that it has some sort of mystical affect on children that causes them to behave. Apparantly, they were just being told to behave. Oops. |
