Misheard lyrics

[fuzzyjay]

Back in the days before the Intarwebs, you couldn't always get the lyrics of popular songs except by actually buying the record album, which frequently had the lyrics printed on the cover or on the record sleeve.

I used to mishear Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" line which goes:

When the working day is done

as:

What in the world can they have done

And another song that went:

Oh what a lonely boy

as:

Oh what a lovely war

You got any like that?

We have Scuse and the follow-up, When A Man Loves A Walnut, but not the Christmas edition, Deck the Halls With Buddy Holly.
