Until I got the lyric sheet, I thought he was singing "She's so POP-u-lar!"

A friend of mine thought it was "She sells UN-der-wear!"

I thought it was "She's so POP-u-lar!" for years and years too.

And I'm willing to bet that someone else on the forum did up until this very post.

Mine was, "Shears so fomp-tee-a"

:shrug:

Yeah, and it's not like OTHER musicians haven't made up nonsensical lyrics for OTHER songs...

:roll:

"If looks could kill, they probably will..."

That's grammatically incorrect, isn't it? Shouldn't it be "If looks could kill, they probably would..." or "If looks can kill, they probably will..."?

"Dressing up in costumes
playing silly games
hiding out in chat rooms
shouting out rude names."

Hardly had to change that bit at all...
