Patrick Hernandez, "Born To Be Alive"
Misheard Lyrics:
People ask me why I never find the place to stump and settle down down down
But I never wanted all the things that people need adjust to find their lies lies lies.
You see war born, born, born to be a lie.
Original Lyrics:
People ask me why I never find a place to stop and settle down down down
but I never wanted all the things that people need to justify their lives lives lives.
You see we're born, born, born to be alive.
This is how I first heard it on radio back in the early 80's. At the time, I believed he was singing about lies and deceit and anti-war, turns out it is a song about travelling and being free. Good song, but not as amusing as some of the others.
