I have a cousin who... isn't all that bright. Well, she was listening to my iPod in the car, which was playing "Losing Grip" by Avril Lavigne.
The line was:
"I was left to cry, there waitin' outside there, grinning with the lost stare."
My cousin's version:
"I was left to cry, there waitin' outside, Cher, grinning with a nig*er."
I was just staring at her... that wasn't even remotely close!
