Echo and the Bunnymen's, "Ripeness"
Misheard Lyrics:
Made choices
At the wrong time
Wrote my age in skin
'Cause age was mine
I don't feel dead
Smelt like roses
Harvested my thought
'Cause it was time
Original Lyrics:
Mature you said
At the wrong time
Broke my aging skin
'Cause age was mine
Had a field day
Smelt like roses
Harvesting my thoughts
'Cause it was time
Echo and the Bunnymen's, "Ripeness"
Misheard Lyrics:
Yeah, should be policed
Or something
Original Lyrics:
Death should be unleashed
Or something
