I love senseless Dylan lyrics....like

Einstein disguised as Robin Hood
With his memories in a trunk
Passed this way an hour ago
With his friend, A jealous Monk
You would not think to look at him
That he was famous long ago
For playing the electric violin
On Desolation Row


I guess my brain was fried before refrigerants got to it...

It's self-explanatory, Robin. Where WERE you in the '60s??????????

Are you referring to like "what State I lived in" or what "state" I was in?

Old Farts

If we had that much trouble, how is the new generation doing with rap/hip-hop? Most of what I can understand is what the punk third grader idiots wrote on the restroom walls.

Ahh yes, Manfred Mann's Earth Band lyrics. Three major hits spanning three decades. Doo Wah Diddy was self explainatory but Mighty Quinn and Blinded by the Light have issues.

Blinded by the Light is difficult to understand what they are saying;

"Wrapped up like a duece, another runner in the night."

....being the misheard on the last posts.

With Mighty Quinn, we can understand the words but have no idea what they mean;

I like to go just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and makin' haste, just ain't my cup of meat
Everyone's beneath the trees, feedin' pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
All the pigeons gonna run to him

Then again, it was Bob Dylan who wrote Mighty Quinn.

It's self-explanatory, Robin. Where WERE you in the '60s??????????

From the 80's, the soang "I can read your mind", I thought it was "Hide or eat a pipe"

Also, Paul McCartney's "Every time you go away" I always sang "You take a piece of MEAT with you"

we can understand the words but have no idea what they mean

"If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May Queen"



WTF is that?

Van Halen.

Panama, I thought they were singing Payen-m-off

blinded by the light, wake up and go douche your hole later in the night.

lit up like a douche and and a rubber in the night


-Blinded by the Light

"momma be there"

thought it was

"momma pee'd there"

Red Hot Chili Peppers, Power of Equality: What ever happened to your Manitee? (What ever happened to Humanity?)

Hendrix: 'Scuse me while I kiss this guy.

Rolling Stones - Beast of Burden - cant believe i am going to admit this - think i was around 9 when the song came out and I thought they said "I'll never see your pizza burnin'" can you tell I was a chunky monkey at a early age.

What about DR DRE or Snoop Dogg? what the hell are they saying??

That band sounds nuts! I remember Credence doing Bad Moon Rising.

Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall" Thought it was a racial thing when they sang; "darks are hassled, in the classrooms."

Brick in the Wall.....I always sang

"All in all it's just another kick in the balls"

That's a common one misunderstood;

Shocking Blue's, "Venus"
Misheard Lyrics:
I'm your penis, and vagina...your desire
Correct Lyrics:
I'm your venus, I'm your fire at your desire

"Im your Venus"

Did't that song go:

I'm your Venus, I'm your pride and joy? Or something like that?

Yep, the "P" work would fit in there nicely.

Back in the late 60's


"Im your Venus"



pretty self explanatory
