Story about this misheard lyric by: Devil Jones This was heard during a time when monotonous Tin-Tin Out were inexplicably popular and because of this. I was horrified at the notion that they managed somehow to infiltrate the lyrics of a credible band. Obviously I was sceptical to it all, so later on I laughed inwardly after seeing the real lyrics online. |
