We used to sing  'Australians all eat ostriches'


(and then I would get in trouble for doing a little 'ba da da' on the tempani)

Re: Favourite mondegreen

firstly, I had to look up "mondegreen"

 

this is my latest favouriet mondegreen, then

 

"I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh all my friends are turning green
You're the magicians assistant in their dreams.
Awooo
Awooo
And they come unstuck"

 

I thought for a long time it was "and the car won't start"

I somehow read the thread title, (and kept reading it ) as  "Favourite Mondograss" Smiley LOL Smiley LOL

 

I was so confused, trying to find a correlation between the Mondograss, and songs, lyrics.  walk think.gif

 

Favourite mondegreen =  mondograss.
