Story about this misheard lyric by: Sonia Rebeca Guzman Jurado My brother and I were singing that song and we sang it that way unconsciously. It was pretty funny when we realized what we just sang exactly at the same time, about 10 seconds later, and we started laughing exactly at the same time without saying a word. |
