Leningrad by Billy Joel
Real Lyrics-I was born in '49, a cold war kid in McCarthy time
I Heard-I was born in '49, a cold war kid in the coffee time.
I thought he was saying coffee had been invented in the late 40's...
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics
others believed things like this
- I used to think that Sylvester Stallone and Billy Joel were the same person.Anon
- I thought you could get toffee from mixing tea and coffee.Anon
- until 12 yo i thought buying and drinking coffee was illegal when you were under 18:) — smarty
- I always refused to eat coffeecake because I thought it was made with coffee grounds. Anon
- I always thought there was a drinking age for coffee, because it was an adult drink like beer and wine.Anon
- I used to believe that coffee was tea with milk in it.Anon
