Tears For Fears', "Closest Thing To Heaven"
Misheard Lyrics:
Look the world right in the eye
Even the countries that are making billions
Scream 'As I'm on umpire!'
Save all the the clowns from all the startling of me!
Original Lyrics:
Look the world right in the eye
Eat the countries that are making billions
Sweet as homemade apple pie
Save the crumbs for the starving millions.
