Madonna's, "Drowned World (Substitute for Love)"
Misheard Lyrics:
I traded fate for love without a second fall
It all became a city game, something cannot be bought
(later)
Driving 'round the world
Looking for a whore
It all became a city game, something cannot be bought
(later)
Driving 'round the world
Looking for a whore
Original Lyrics:
I traded fame for love without a second thought
It all became a silly game, some things cannot be bought
(later)
Traveled 'round the world
Looking for a home
It all became a silly game, some things cannot be bought
(later)
Traveled 'round the world
Looking for a home
