DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR?
What song lyrics have you been singing for awhile, only to discover that you've been singing the wrong words?
When you heard "Lucy in the sky with diamonds," did you sing, "The girl with colitis goes by"??
Or, instead of "Lady Madonna, children at your feet," were you singing, "Kneedeep in doughnuts, perfume on my feet"??
I could go on, but I won't. You get the idea. Well, here's a recent conversation in my home.
Kid: "Mom, what would happen if you put a booger in the microwave?"
Mom: "What?? That's gross!! Where'd you hear that?"
Kid: "It's on a song on the Newsboys CD. They say, 'Cool as the burn of an aftershave, tender as a booger in the microwave.'"
Dad: "I don't think so. Go get me the lyrics."
Dad: (Reading the lyrics) "Cool as the burn of an aftershave, tender as a burger in the microwave."
Kid: "Oh. Oops."
Lunch, anyone?

A Few Words About Comments
Comments are always welcome here, but there are a few things you should know:
1) If you comment, leave a name. If you can't figure out how to log in or register or whatever the system is making you do (which, believe me, I fully understand how frustrating that can be) and you must comment anonymously . . . leave a name in the comment section. Purely anonymous comments will be deleted.
2) Comments I deem to be offensive, irrelevant, or generally trollish will be deleted. I'm mainly talking to the Akurians here. Don't make me get out my flag!
3) If you would like to receive e-mail notification of other comments so you can more easily follow a conversation (yeah, like I ever have those on this blog), you must register with Blogger. Sorry . . . I didn't have anything to do with that one.
Enjoy the game.

I just heard the song on KLOVE for the first time today or maybe I was just paying attention to the lyrics for the first time. Apparently the Newsboys are Australian, and the singer does sound like he's saying booger. It made me laugh!
