So, I know there's a word for when you mishear lyrics of a song. But I can't remember it at all. At least, I think there is one. Do any of you know what it is?
I was listening to "Alibis" by Tracy Lawrence (yeehaw old country), and I realized a few weeks ago I had been terribly wrong about the lyrics.
So many times she's been taken a fool/By those alibis/And lionize/And all the best lines/Lord knows she's heard 'em all
Yeah. Fifteen years after the song came out, I realize it's lyin' eyes. It made so much more sense after I figured that out. (Okay, the first time I heard this song was after it came out when I was little. I hadn't heard it but once in a blue moon until this past summer, when I ripped the Tracy Lawrence greatest hits CD my mom had lying around and it ended up on the iPod.)
Anyone else want to admit to embarrassing or amusing misheard lyrics?
