Cold Chisel, "Khe Sanh"
Misheard Lyrics:
And the legal pads raved on
I was Bombay-back-in-Maine
And the talac's riders collided
Where the gunships once had been
And cowpox made me jumpy
And I never stop the dream
Oh of the growing need for speed and Novocaine
Original Lyrics:
And the legal pads were yellow
Hours long, pay packets lean
And the telex writers clattered
Where the gunships once had been
And car parks make me jumpy
And I never stop the dream
Of the growing need for speed and Novocaine
Car parks and not COWPOX?? (smallpox was still around in '78).
