    Blinded by the light. Where it says
    Revved up, like a deuce,
    another runner in the night............

    I always hear
    wrapped up like a douche
    and a roller in the night

    How to answer this? I have had problems with all the songs listed, but I find the lyrics online and get them right almost as soon as I like the song... Okay!

    In the show "The Dukes of Hazzard", I always thought that Waylon Jennings was singing "raping the curds" when it was really "straightening the curves".

    Years back, a friend of made an audio tape copy (remember those?) of a CD I owned at the time. It was Meatloaf's "Bat out of Hell" album. A week later he was at my place and he asked if he could take a look at the lyric sheet. While he was looking at it, I told him that the words he was looking for were "Silver black phantom bike". He started laughing, because I'd essentially just told him that I'd made the exact same mistake, at some point.

    Might be just the UK who make this mistake, because we are the ones unfortunate enough to actually HAVE a Cilla Black... but a lot of people listen to those words and hear "Cilla Black fan on bike". And then we wonder why it doesn't make sense.

    And that's why, a week later, we need to see the lyric sheet.

    And when I was much younger, my mum used to play a song called "What a picture". It had the line "Stick it in your family... Album!" I thought it was incredibly rude, because I heard "Stick it up your fanny... Boom boom!"

    And that's even worse in the UK, because over here, a fanny isn't a bum. It's on the other side.

    I always thought it was "wrapped up like a douche" After my wife told me the correct lyrics she called me a douche. Nice, huh?
