A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

My boyfriend is always making up his own silly versions of songs, but the best one I've heard so far was his rendition of 'Wannabe' by the spice girls because instead of the real lyrics, which are.

If you wanna be me lover
ya gotta get with my friends
Make it last forever
Friendship never ends

He sang....(wait for it)

If you wanna be my plumber
Ya gotta have a monkey wrench
Fixin pipes forever
Flooding never ends

This he followed up with....

Send your buddies down and buy us all a round.

And the Zig a Zig ah bit he sang as...

I wanna, I wanna really, really.........big fat cigar!

— Pauline Stone (Bolton)
