My personal fave has always been a line in the Doobies' "China Grove":

"Well the people in the pizza love everybody
They are the talk of the town"

To this day, I refuse to Google the actual lyrics because I know there's no way they can approach that level of awesome ridiculousness.

Whatcha got?

Some here.

Speaking of, in Turning Japanese, is it Cyclone Ranger, or Psyched Lone Ranger?

LOL. Here's another weird one, that shows how your memory can play tricks on you when you hear a song.

There's an Al Stewart tune from the 24 Carrots CD called Paint By Numbers. For years - and I would have SWORN by this - I thought there was a line in it that went "What'll you do if the music sucks when I'm gone?"

One day I finally went and looked up the lyric sheet and sure enough this line is nowhere to be found. What I did find, though, is that the first time through in the song he sings:

"What'll you do if the muse gets lost when I'm gone?"

Then in the next verse it's "What'll you do if the brush gets stuck when I'm gone?"

Somehow - frick if I know how - my mind combined "muse gets lost" and "brush gets stuck" into "music sucks"

Oh say can you see? By the Dahnzerly light?

I always wondered what a Dahnzerly light was - was it like this large primitive lantern that they used to use in the 1700's?
