Roxette, "Dressed for Success"
Misheard Lyrics:
Quit the job, the great believers
Another time where I get close to the bone
...
I'm gonna get breasts for success,
Shaping me up for the big time, baby
Another time where I get close to the bone
...
I'm gonna get breasts for success,
Shaping me up for the big time, baby
Original Lyrics:
Quit the job, the grey believers
Another town where I get close to the bone
...
I'm gonna get dressed for success,
Shaping me up for the big time, baby
Another town where I get close to the bone
...
I'm gonna get dressed for success,
Shaping me up for the big time, baby
Well, she does say 'SHAPING me up', and the '80s were certainly when boob jobs took off. Per's lyrics don't make much sense here, anyway.
