When I was about 7 years old, i used to mis-sing the words to Grease Lightning, from the movie Grease. instead of singing "Go grease Lightning, your burning up a quarter-MILE." I used to sing, "Go Grease Lightning, you burning up a quarter-DIME!!"
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics
others believed things like this
- I always thought that "elbow grease" was a type of lubricant until about 2 years ago. I'm 19.— Erika
- I used to think that "elbow grease" was an actual product of kitchen or surface cleaner.— Carrie
- I thought that a quarter hour was 25 minutes long, since a quarter was worth $0.25.— Crystal
- I believed that lightning bugs were faeries....
::sigh:: I miss those enchanted years of my youth.— Andrea Sorenson - I used to believe electricity came from lightning.Anon
- I used to believe that a quarter after the hour was 25 minutes after the hour because 25 cents = a quarter.— Marni
