My hubby is a HUGE fan, so he actually spoke the lyrics to me when I once complained that the song made absolutely NO SENSE. Mind you, it still makes no sense, but at least I know the lyrics. So don't worry, you're not alone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5053152.post-61440501636847355052008-04-14T13:01:00.000-04:002008-04-14T13:01:00.000-04:00ahaha i love this. it makes me feel so much better...ahaha i love this. it makes me feel so much better about my own wrong lyrics experiences!!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09330391724110107705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5053152.post-40271378317387431192008-04-14T12:51:00.000-04:002008-04-14T12:51:00.000-04:00Hehehe...Guilty!
