For a while i hav thought that the lyrics for Smash Mouth's "All Star" went like so:
"She was lookin kinda dumb
with her finger IN her thumb
and the shape of an elf
on her forhead."
It wasnt until a friend pointed out to me that i was singing the lyrics wrong in an english lesson while watchin one of my favourite films "Shrek". She said that the lyrics went like:
"with her finger and her thumb
in the shape of an L
on her forhead"
obviously this makes alot more sence than my version on the lyrics.
