Michael Jackson, "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'"
Misheard Lyrics:
Too high to get over
Too low to get under
You're stuck in the middle
You're playin' the fiddle
Too low to get under
You're stuck in the middle
You're playin' the fiddle
Original Lyrics:
Too high to get over
Too low to get under
You're stuck in the middle
And the pain is thunder.
Too low to get under
You're stuck in the middle
And the pain is thunder.
I've sung it with the word 'fiddle' for years. I just listened to the song again after reading the real lyrics, Michael mumbles the word 'thunder', so I feel like it's a reasonable mistake to hear 'fiddle' lol!
