Story about this misheard lyric by: Saralinda Until the day I die, I will picture three old broads with clacking dentures, frantically batting their eyes (with huge false eyelashes) and getting jealous over the singer's advances to some younger chick. I was almost fifty, driving along a highway with a pal from my high school days (and of course, listening to oldies) when this song came on. After I sang the critical line, she snapped off the radio and said, 'Are you trying to be funny?' |
