A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

The first time I heard "Nice Girls" by Melissa Manchester, it sounded very clearly like she was singing:

Nice girls (nice girls),
They all gotta potty.
Nice girls (nice girls),
They doo-doo.

The real lyrics (which I was able to look up on a website) are:

Nice girls (nice girls),
Think alot about it.
Nice girls (nice girls),
They do it too.

How I wish I could have misheard it that way much earlier, as a small child. For my sister once told me that having to "doo-doo" is a result of having been naughty, and if you were never naughty, you'd never have to do that.
