Rush's Limelight. The real verse is Living in a fisheye lens but I grew up singing it as Living on a fish island.

Suburbia by The Matthew Good Band

Lyric: Baby if I was in demand, you would be mine.

Me: Suburbia has got to be a top 10 song for me
Buddy: I don't know ... i just don't really like it.
Me: You are insane. How can you not like it?
Buddy: It's just that one line, I just can't get over it
Me: ??
Buddy: You know, "baby if I was into men, you would be mine"
Me: Oh my god.

How is this thread already two pages long and no mention of the Kotalik song?

There's also a similar SNL skit.

For years, I thought the lyric in Journey's Faithfully was...

"And to love an amusing man
ain't always what it's supposed to be."

Trivia - Bruce Springsteen actually wrote that song - you can hear it on Greetings From Asbury Park NJ.

True, except that Springsteen's version of the song is $#!%.

Springsteen joked that it never took off until MM changed the lyrics to a feminine hygiene product.

Not entirely on topic, but entertaining none-the-less.

A rough translation provided by a commenter:

The girl says:"Hey teacher, why did you write a song with words that no one can understand?"

And the teacher says: "Because I think today in the world we don't understand each other, and don't care."

"It refers ironically to the fact that many Italians listen to English/American music without understanding it! So the song sounds like a perfect English one!"

But you can actually understand the lyric when he sings it.

Matthew Good Avalanche at around the 2:46 mark theres a spoken word part. I dont know what it's actually saying. I think it's "I talk about you", but its much more entertaining as "taco bell shoes"
