Misheard Lyrics Story:
|
"100 Stufen (100 Steps)"
Misheard Lyrics: Kein Augen Lichtenstien
Original Lyrics: Kein Augenblick ist je
|
Story about this misheard lyric by: Alana I thought Peter was saying 'Kein Augen Lichtenstien' instead of 'Kein Augenblick ist je' which is somewhat translated from German to English as 'no moment is ever'. I also found out that 'Lichtenstien' does not exist as a word in the German vocabulary! [Ed.s note: Lichtenstein is small country surrounded by Germany, Austria and Switzerland. German is there native tongue.] |

Funny Lyrics:
"Chill Of The Night"
The Funny Lyrics: I might as well be on the moon
Why They're Funny: I really love both Peter and this song, and the really funny thing is that there is no warmth on the moon unless there is a fireplace somewhere!

| "Party I'm Vulcan"
The Funny Lyrics: Party Im Vulcan Feuerregen uber mir (two dots above the u in 'uber')
Why They're Funny: This translates as 'Party in the volcano, fire rain on me'. It's funny because a volcano is as hot as the sun (maybe) and perhaps having fire rain on you is pretty scary!
