I always thought at the end he said "No I dont practice breaking your feelings" which I think is a good line anyway- but it turns out he says "No white or black just grey, can you feel this..."

Anyone else with me on this?

    The first time I heard it, I thought he said "No I don't practice greek..."...and then I looked at the lyrics.

    yeah... television... is not so bad... if you star watching English spoken channels... it could help you to understand english... and of course... if you read books (in english)... it will also help!!! hehehe, no hard feelings..!!!

    I used to think that "please don't go on me" was "please drop the womb bats"

    Mind you, I was 11 when I first heard the song. A womb bat was a Ninja Turtle character.

    Also,

    Rats: "Lick the dirt off a larger one's feet " I thought is was "Lick the dirt off a Olajuwom's feet" . As in Hakeem Olajuwom's.

    Pour what over them? Tea? Gravy?! Unmentionable bodily fluids??!!!


    In this context, I think it's spelled "pore".

    Not to be a pedantic asshole, but I'm just... well... a pedantic asshole.

    a bit off topic, but in Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day, i had thought for almost 2 years now i guess, that the line:

    "sometimes i wish someone out there will find me"

    was actually "sometimes i wish someone would pillow fight me."

    oh well.....haha
