The Kooks', "Gap"
Misheard Lyrics:
So perspiring in the works,
You're mine.
Original Lyrics:
So put a spanner in the works,
Of your mind.
The Kooks', "Gap"
Misheard Lyrics:
You best not interfere, so don't try
To take away all the things so dear in my life.
Original Lyrics:
You're better in defeat, so don't try
To take away all the things I'll do in my life.
Thompson Twins', "The Gap"
Misheard Lyrics:
We say break the line, chew the facts
And keep moving out into the gap
Original Lyrics:
We say break the line, and chew the fat
And keep moving out into the gap.
It made sense to me at the time--- I wasn't familiar with the expression "chew the fat" meaning to make conversation, and I figured they meant try to digest all the available information before you make judgments about others.
Thompson Twins', "The Gap"
Misheard Lyrics:
We say break the line, into the fax
He put me out into the gap.
Original Lyrics:
We say break the line, and chew the fat
A keep moving out into the gap.
