For a while, I thought that the 90s hit Common People by Pulp said "rent a fag and barber shop" instead of "rent a flat above a shop." This led to a lot of confusion over what the next line, "cut your hair and get a job" was talking about. Because if the mishearing was correct...what kind of job would the person be getting?
