The Story: Don't eat the fruit in the garden, Eden,, It wasn't in God's natural plan., You were only a rib,, And look at what you did,, To Adam, the father of Man.
The Story: You smell like goat, I'll see you in hell
Listening to Randy Bachman's show on CBC Radio in which he
described what a "mondegreen" was and citing this particular
misheard lyric in The Weight as a classic--and silly--example.
And yet, that's how I had heard that lyric since I was a kid. Thanks
Randy!
