Misheard Lyrics: Diamond wine, but not tonight
The time is right for us and I Original Lyrics: Dine and wine, but not 'til nine
The time is right for us tonight |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Sarah Perry I assumed “diamond wine” was some really fancy expensive old time brand of wine from the 1920s, a reference like “Arrow Collars” and Gary Cooper. Things that I, a kid in the 1990s, wouldn’t automatically know about. |

Dated Song Lyrics:
"Puttin' On The Ritz"
The Dated Lyrics: High hats and Arrow collars
Why They're Dated: Had to submit this after seeing the Cole Porter entry. While Taco was far from the first to perform this song, the line about Arrow collars was already dated by the time he did sing it.

Bad Ringtone Choices:
"Puttin' On The Ritz"
The Lyrics: Have you seen the well to do
Up and down Park Avenue On that famous thorough fare With their noses in the air High hats and arrow collars White spats and lots of dollars Spending every dime for a wonderful time. Why: I'd hate to be a person with a white collar job and have this ringtone go off. Someone might think that you're a complete and total loser who has to boast about how much money you make.
