Misheard Lyrics Story:
|
"Age Ain't Nothing But A Number"
Misheard Lyrics: Age ain't nothin' but a number
But a noun ain't nothing but a thang. Original Lyrics: Age ain't nothin' but a number
Throwing down ain't nothing but a thang. |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Keisha My best friend actually thought these were the lyrics up until recently. It made so much sense though, because a noun is really a thing. An adolescent could really think these lyrics were correct. Darn grammar classes. |

Dirty Lyrics:
"More Than A Woman"
The Dirty Lyrics: Midnight grindin
My heartrates climbin You go, I go Cause we share pillows Taste me, feed me Theres still no separating Morning massages With new bones in your closet Why They're Dirty: Well, this a no-brainer - another thinly disguised song about sex. This song was released posthumously. Cheeky and cute - just like Aaliyah. R.I.P.
