Misheard Lyrics:
You're a teaser, you turn 'em on,
Leave 'em burning, and then you're God.
Leave 'em burning, and then you're God.
Original Lyrics:
You're a teaser, you turn 'em on,
Leave 'em burning, and then you're gone.
Leave 'em burning, and then you're gone.
In the original ABBA version of this song, I thought it sounded just a LITTLE bit like they were singing "and then you're God" instead of "and then you're gone", but that was not quite enough the case for me to ever submit this mishearing for that version. But then, on seeing "Mamma Mia!" and hearing its soundtrack CD, I thought in this version is DOES sound distinctly like they sing "and then you're God", enough indeed to submit as a misheard lyric!
