Re the song "Brimful of asha". Recently heard my friend singing along, however she had slightly different lyrics. Hers were "Grim tooth basher". She's 27. However the same girl though that Madonnas "Like a virgin" was in fact "Like a bird king"
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- Instead of Madonnas 'Like a virgin' I used to sing 'Like a gerbil'— Stupid Child
- When I first heard the song "Constant Craving" by KD Lang, I thought she was singing "God save gravy."Anon
- I used to think Elvis' "I'm All Shook Up" was "A Mushy Cup". How sad of me to confuse the lyrics of a king...— Sad, Sad, Girl
- I recently very disturbed to learn that Al Jolson was in fact Caucasian.Anon
- When I first heard Matt Monro's song "Born Free," I thought he was singing "Porn Free."Anon
- When I was little, my dad had a friend named Scott. I thought my dad's friend was the king of Scotland— Uhhh....
