The Showmen's, "39-21-46"
Misheard Lyrics:
39-21-46
Original Lyrics:
39-21-40 Shape
Apparently, the folks at Minit Records also misheard General Norman Johnson's liyrics, because they mislabeled the record. He is clearly singing about a lady with a '39-21-40 shape' (which is large enough already). Norman Johnson later formed Chairmen of the Board, who hit with 'Give Me Just A Little More Time' -- which also has funny misheard lyrics.
