    i) I sat on the roof
    And kicked off Kate Moss -
    For a few of her verses had got me quite cross

    ii) If I were a sculptor
    Or then again - no;
    Or a man who makes cushions in a travelling show...

    Artist: Elton John
    Song: Your Song
    Real Lyric: i)I sat on the roofAnd kicked off some mossFor a few of the verses had got me quite crossii)If I were a sculptorOr then again - no;Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show...



    The story:

    i) The idea of Elton John suddenly deciding he couldn't work with this woman any more, and no doubt ditching her in favour of Bernie Taupin as a co-writer, was pretty much self-evident to me. I had a shrewd feeling that anyone forced into close company with Kate Moss would either want to (i) blot it out with lots of hard drugs, as her last boyfriend famously did; or
    ii) physically throw her off a very high roof.

    Then somebody pointed out to me that Elton recorded "Your Song" in 1969, in which year Ms Moss was still actually unborn and would remain so for a further twelve years until 1978.

    Whoops......

    and as for (ii) - the idea of an itinerant travelling upholsteror and haberdasher actually made a lot of sense to me, maybe one who sewed up your torn antimicassar while you waited, at a travelling crafts show... again, the reality was more banal than this and provoked a "whoops..." moment.
