Hiya, I was doing some sort of mundane chore on autopilot and idly thought about misheard lyrics. We all must have some, so I thought I'd start a thread to share them. I heard of someone who misheard the lyrics to a Monkees song.... "Then I saw her face.... Now I'm gonna leave her." I can only think of one of my own at the moment but I'm sure I must have more hiding in my memory. Anyway here's mine, it's the opening lines from Level 42's "Something About You" "How, how can it be, that a love, conked out of Kevin". (it's actually "a love, carved out of caring")
