Prince - Kiss

"you don't have to be cool to rule my world". I thought it was "you don't have to be cruel to rule my world."

which really doesn't make sense, but Prince, you know?

No Doubt (Spiderwebs):

"And iiiits all your fault I
Screeeeeam at Bullfrogs.
No mattamattamattamatta who calls I
Screeeeeam at bullfrogs."

(years later it turns out she "screens her phonecalls" much to the bullfrogs' delight)

I always thought the lyrics were:

I'm blue,
I believe that I'll die, I believe that I'll die.

Grateful Dead-New Speedway Boogie

Actual lyrics, this darkness has got to give. I heard this darkness has got to lift.

My best friend in high school use to swear up and down that Melloncamp was singing I could remember when you could starve a flower in Pink Houses instead of I could remember when you could stop a clock.

"I'm blue if I was green I would die"

Also sounds like "I'm in need of a guy"
