There’s a bathroom on the right!

We had a little dance party comprised of with music with frequently misheard lyrics, which included:

  • The Go-Go’s: “Islands of seals” (Our Lips Are Sealed)
  • U2: “Shamu the Mysterious Whale” (“She moves in mysterious ways.”)
  • Rusted Root: “Sammy and the Whale” (“Send me on my way.”).
  • Aretha Franklin: “You make me feel like a rash on a woman.” (“You make me feel like a natural woman.”)
  • Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody: “Saving his life from this warm sausage tea!” (“Spare him his life from this monstrosity!”) – which is now my new favorite.
  • The Fifth Dimension: “This is the dawning of the Age of Asparagus…” (“This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius…”)
  • Starship’s We Built This City: “My pony plays the mamba” (“Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio”)
  • Madonna’s La Isla Bonita: “Young girl with eyes like potatoes”. I insist that this makes perfect sense. S still insists that there is no way that “eyes like the desert” sounds anything like “eyes like potatoes.” I mean, potatoes have eyes. The desert? Sandy and scratchy. Apparently I am not alone in my firmly held belief. The rest of the internets have heard it as well!
  • Of course, top of all of the internet lists is Credence Clearwater Revival’s “There’s a bathroom on the right.” (“There’s a bad moon on the rise.”)
