Subject: BS Mishearing Lyrics
I guess this belongs in BS, but I'm not sure how to flag it as that.
Anyway, there is a pop song called "Brand New Me" by Colbie Caillat where what I hear is not what any lyrics lookup agree with.
Colbie has a wonderful voice and good sense of catchy rhythms (I sometimes like a "good" pop song).
Here's the problem:
The official lyrics read like this>
"I got the same ole friends got the same ole taste tell the same ole jokes give the same ole gifts "

But what I'm hearing after many listens is this>
"I got the same ole friends got the same ole tits tell the same ole jokes give the same ole grits"

Maybe I have a bootleg copy? ............
