When I was younger & listening to Madonna's 'Material Girl' on the radio, my little sister decided one day to sing along. Of course it wasn't till after the song ended that I realized what she was saying: "Cuz I'm li-ving, in a Cheerio World, and I'm a Cheerio girl!" --Today we still laugh our butts off about it as adults!
