What's your favorite misheard or absurdist alternative song lyric?
Seeing as how I never get to post silly threads, here's one...

Sometimes one word can mean everything: to wit...

"10th Avenue Freak Out"
"Bitchy Woman"
"Keep on Rockin' in the Brie World"

And of course, the seminal "Bathroom on the Right"

Sometimes I wonder if the alternates wouldn't have been more fun than the actual song.

Because I just made that up off the top of my head looking at a playlist.

Spooky...

Opening lyric is

"It's twelve oclock and I've a tuna fillet"
