Billy Joel, "We Didn't Start The Fire"
Misheard Lyrics:
We did a song about it
No we didn't write it
But we tried to buy it
Original Lyrics:
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it
Well, Billy Joel did have a reputation for prolificness, it COULD have been a list of topics covered in his discography
