The Cars, "Shake It Up"
Misheard Lyrics:
Danced all night, were ya here?
Makin' annoying cat stop and stare?
Dance all night...gotta work!
Do the move with that quirky jerk.
Makin' annoying cat stop and stare?
Dance all night...gotta work!
Do the move with that quirky jerk.
Original Lyrics:
Dance all night, whirl your hair.
Make the night cats stop and stare.
Dance all night...go to work!
Do the move with the quirky jerk.
Make the night cats stop and stare.
Dance all night...go to work!
Do the move with the quirky jerk.
Given that it's the Cars, most of what listeners think they're hearing isn't much more eccentric than what they're really describing.
