Misheard Lyrics Story:

"Midnight At The Oasis"

Misheard Lyrics:

Midnight at the Oasis
Send your dollars to care.

Original Lyrics:

Midnight at the Oasis
Send your camels to bed.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Natalie

I didn't know the real lyrics to this song until I started dating the man who is now my husband. Maria Muldaur is his aunt!

Nonsensical Lyrics:

"Midnight At The Oasis"

The Nonsensical Lyrics:

Midnight at the oasis
Send your camel to bed Cactus is our friend

Why They're Nonsensical:

Lovely Maria sings a sweet tune but the song mixes up the ecology a bit. Sand dunes, oases, camels, etc., obviously evoke the image of a Saharan or Arabian desert. However, the reference to cactus places it in more of the high-desert Sonoran type. Still, it's a fun song by a unique and classy artist.

Midnight at the oasis, send your camel to bed.

Comments:

Mildly suggestive for its time (1975), it was about a desert love affair set in old Arabia. It might have been responsible for the most pregnancies from a 70's song, according to Matthew Greenwald of All Music Magazine. (from Wikipedia)
