Iron Maiden's, "Alexander the Great"
Misheard Lyrics:
Near to the east, in a part of ancient Greece,
In an ancient land called Macedonia,
Was born a son, to be the master;
The legend, his name, was Alexander.
In an ancient land called Macedonia,
Was born a son, to be the master;
The legend, his name, was Alexander.
Original Lyrics:
Near to the east, in a part of ancient Greece,
In an ancient land called Macedonia,
Was born a son, to Philip of Macedon;
The legend, his name, was Alexander.
In an ancient land called Macedonia,
Was born a son, to Philip of Macedon;
The legend, his name, was Alexander.
