Well actually, the line from John Fogerty's Bad Moon Risin' was "there's a bad moon on the rise ". It's funny how our inability to understand what a singer is actually saying never stops us from singing the song anyway, with whatever lyric we can substitute. When my daughter was 3, she loved The Wizard of Oz , and could sing all of the songs phonetically, although she really had no idea what the hell they were actually singing about. When the Tin Man sang "Picture me, a balcony, a voice calls soft and low", it came out of my daughter's mouth "Picture me, a dalkodee,a boy called salt and low". I remember Jimi hendrix's version of All Along the Watchtower ; instead of singing "none of them along the line know what any of it is worth" Jimi stuggled with "none will level off this mind, nobody off in this world." You gotta love it!

Anyhow, just wonderin if you have any favorite mis-heard or mis-sung lyrics.(seems like their should be a term for these)
