Misheard PJ lyrics...by children

Post by Buggy »

This has been a good source of entertainment for me lately. Especially from my 3 year old. Some song will play and then sometime later I will hear her trying to sing it on her own, mostly with nonsense words but often yielding gems of phrases. Here are a few...

From Corduroy:
"I don't wanna saw to eat your bread"

From Yellow Ledbetter:
"I don't wanna plaaaaaaaaay! I dont wanna plaaaaaaay! I don't wanna play...I don't! No!"

From Lightning Bolt:
"She's a little bull!"

Anyone else have kids who listen to PJ and...uh...like to "sing" what they hear?

Somewhere I have a video of my son listening to The Fixer on headphones and singing along. He's like 4 years old, and according to that video the lyrics of the song are:

Aaaahhhhhhhh wigzawazzlawuppaduppa
Aaaahhhhhhhh kikalapadingadonna
Aaaahhhhhhhh MOTHERFUCKER


I still prefer those lyrics to the actual verse lyrics...partially because I'm pretty sure there's zero chance he'd ever heard that word before, and he spontaneously invented it in response to what he was hearing.

That could be an effective Time Out strategy.
