Misheard Lyrics Story:

"Hungry"
Misheard Lyrics: I hear the chicken on the clock
countin' every day I've been alone Original Lyrics: I hear the tickin' of the clock
countin' every day I've been alone |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Sandi A friend of mine misheard this lyric. I had just gotten Winger's debut cassette for my 12th birthday and I had a slumber party for my birthday and my friend was sleeping over and I put on this song and she began to sing 'I hear the chicken on the clock countin' every day I've been alone'. I began to laugh and she asked me what was so funny and I told her. Well, needless to say, it took a few minutes and showing her the lyrics to convince her that her lyrics to the song were all wrong and for quite awhile after that, when she would spend the night at my house or come over, I would put the song on and refer to it as 'The Chicken Song'. So while Winger may have left the charts, they continued to live on in my house at sleepovers. |
Funny Lyrics:

The Funny Lyrics: She's only seventeen
Her daddy says she too young But she's old enough for me! Why They're Funny: This is the best line of any song I ever heard- it's the attitude of every rock star (or guy who thinks he's a rock star)
