Johnny Mercer's, "Too Marvelous For Words"
Misheard Lyrics:
And so I'm borrowing a love song from The Byrds.
Original Lyrics:
And so I'm borrowing a love song from the birds.
Obviously not referring to the band The Byrds, as this song was made long before any of its members were born. That said, it should be filed under "misc", since there are no decade settings prior to 1950.
