Okay, this list I have been storing ever since I got into Joni and some
of these are simply bad mishearings that make me ponder my listening skills:
"Roses dipped in Ceiling wax"
(Roses dipped in sealing wax)
"Beneath the Map a la Moon"
(Beneath the Matalla Moon)
"When something strange hit him"
(When something strange happened) (Court and Spark)
"Watching your hairy clouds and stars"
(Watching your hair and clouds and stars)
"All cause for now withdrawn"
(All claws for now withdrawn)
"He says, you're not just liberation doll"
(He says "Your notches liberation doll")
"To that Ethiopian walk"
(To that Ethiopian wall)
"OUt in the wind in Kremlin"
(Out in the wind in crinolines)
"Magnolia's hopeful in her RObert Hair"
(Magnolias hopeful in her auburn hair)
"Jesus was a bad guy, he was rich in grace"
(Jesus was a beggar, he was rich in grace)
"Skinny black models with raving curls"
(Skinny black models with Raveen curls)
"sitting around in some all nite loot"
(Sitting around in some all night zoo)
"These ensyncophants parade"
(Thieves and sycophants parade)
"I'm a burning heart, he said"
("I'm a burning hearth," he said)
"Saying, 'Abby who are you in yet?"
(Saying, "Avez-vous un allumette?")
"Explosions of your honor until we meet again"
(Explosions of your autumn till we meet again)
Okay, so most of those are really lame. The mistake lyric in "The
Boho Dance" when I had first heard it thought that Joni was really pushing
it by saying that Jesus was a "badguy" (you know, like WOW, Joni is making a
rash statement here folks). When I found out the truth, not only did I laugh
myself silly, but felt completely foolish.
