Story about this misheard lyric by: Anna

When he's singing this part, his voice gets very emotional and shaky, like he's trying not to laugh at the irony of it all; it's kind of hard to hear what he's saying if you're not paying close attention. For some reason, I kept getting the image of Conor molesting a chair whenever I heard this lyric. But then again, I'm an idiot.
