        and .. "there is a wife that never goes out" ...

        or worse: "And now I know how Joan of Arc smelled"

        two attested examples (my mum was getting way to familiar with the Smiths, I guess).

          I must admit it. I too, am guilty of mixing up the lyrics at times. Hopefully not as bad as these characters.

                            the funniest one I've ever heard was what someone once posted on this site:
                            "It took her tattooed boyfriend's broken head
                            to really really open her eyes"

                            and at the smiths convention someone sang:
                            "Sing your life...walk right up to the microphone and dance"

                            and of course: "Now I am a wuss..."

                            "all I'm about to say...some hope and some despair"

                            "books don't save and books aren't standardized"
