The puppy stared at his vegetables

The story:

Well, I *knew* I was wrong, as I never thought that Iron Maiden would actually be singing about vegetarian puppies, BUT I never bothered learning the real lyrics. So, I would sing my version every time I played the CD until they truly became those words for me. Then, one day, two friends and I were out riding around in my car, and I, while driving, began to sing my words.

My two friends got really quiet before I noticed they were both snickering. Of course, when I tried to tell them that I *knew* those weren't *really* the words, they answered with guffaws and "Sure, uh huh!"

Til this day, they still believe I really thought the lyrics were about vegetable-gazing puppies, and they never let me live it down.
