Original Lyrics: Sweet dreams are made of this.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Joseph Hancharik A friend's mother (a elderly Pennsylvania Dutch, religious woman. Sadly he and his mother are both deceased) kept telling us about this "religious song" she was hearing by the Eurythmics. He replied, "Mom , They NEVER wrote a religious song". She said, "They sure did." And she started to sing it for us, and out came "Sweet Jesus, wait for me..." We excused ourselves, then laughed so hard we cried all the way home. |

Inappropriate Lyrics:
"You Placed A Chill In My Heart"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: Take me to the desert, take me to the sand
Show me the colour of your right hand Why They're Inappropriate: While the chorus (and title) points to hate and fear in a love relationship, the verses on the other hand sound like random psychotic rants about Annie Lennox's strange fixations and have nothing to do with anything else in the song, like this. Firstly, isn't it just going a bit overboard travelling all the way to a desert just to see some sand? Ever heard of a beach, Annie? Secondly, has she got some fetish with differently coloured right hands? And surely she can hazard a guess of the colour just by looking at the person anyway?
