Title: Lyrics you thought you knew..
Post by sympathy_0 on Aug 9^th, 2011, 11:44am

Just wanted to share one more lyric that I have been singing for years now, that is wrong. It's in Name, and if you remember I also had another mistake in that song (I thought that "Now we're grown up orphans that never knew their names" was "Now we've grown up, all the friends that never knew their names").

At the end of name "I think about you all the time, I don't need the same" I would have sworn up and down until today that it was "I think about you all the time, I don't need to sing" for some reason. Wow. My world has come crashing down - I checked the whole song and those were the only two I had been mistaking for years haha.

Weird, isn't it?

Forbes!!

Look it up! On the web, on a cd insert, or ask someone here (well, maybe not Shade, he has his own lyrics, but yeah).

I know! I have all the CDs (except the first few) but I guess I just always (thought) I knew it! Haha.

Ha! I've done that before. Not so much with Goo but other artists. Adele, in fact, is tricky. I'm sure I've got all her lyrics messed up. lol

Sleef, definitely sleef.

See what I mean?

The worst part is, even after you find out what the correct lyrics are, once you've got those bogus ones in your head, it's hard to get 'em out.

It is very hard. I've been thinking about it since I found out, and in my mind "I think about you all the time, I don't need to sing" makes more sense somehow. Poop.
