Can't help but thinking they are signing "look into my thighs can't you see there open wide"

There used to be a Radio 1 DJ who would broadcast peoples' misheard lyrics, and the two which always spring to mind and raise a chuckle when I hear the songs are:
- "Mike Read just crawled on the dance floor to join in the masquerade" from Thriller
and
- "Ooooh-oooh, my ears are alight" from The Israelites
It was mentioned earlier in the thread - Bruno Brookes' 'twisted lyric'.- "Mike Read just crawled on the dance floor to join in the masquerade" from Thriller
and
- "Ooooh-oooh, my ears are alight" from The Israelites
He was unceremoniously sacked during the Trevor Dann period back when R1 had character, a story to tell and Dann was having a major clearout of 'dead wood'.
He was also famous (relatively) for accidentally playing the full uncensored version of Rage against the machines "Killing In The Name" containing the lyrics:
"fk you, I won't do what you tell me!
Motherfker!
Uggh!"
He went on to DJ at various places including a Leeds radio station where he met and became manager for a certain Chris Moyles.

There isn't much in "She Moves In Her Own Way" that's understandable until you read the lyrics, they must have recorded it on the way back from the pub.
"To these tiresome paper jeans,
Paper jeans, honey
I don't verdigris, she moves in her own way"
I could have sworn it was baby jeans. "To these tiresome paper jeans,
Paper jeans, honey
I don't verdigris, she moves in her own way"
They should really set a rule where they don't do any recording until at least a week after dental surgery.
Only just realized she isn't saying "if the shat goes on my feet so I can dance"

That Don't Impress Me Much- Shania Twain
I remember when this came out, I had to get hold of a copy of the album and read the lyrics just to convince myself I was mishearing that one!("I can't believe you kiss your car good night")

One of mine...

Oh will they ever be Sid Green"
