Anyone else got a line from a Frost* song that they always thinks sounds like it's something else?

Whenever I hear the beginning of Wonderland, I think I hear Dec sing:

"And fig rolls, never far from the pen handed-out" (which I know is both nonsense and wrong!)
Frost*, monkey, trumpet, ARSE!!

My favourite, pointed out by fellow Frost*ie Beano a long time ago, is "Deafened by the sound of udders" from Snowman.  :)
"Putting food on the table is more important than 7/8"

Kevin, my love,
Kevin, my love for you...

from No Me No You.

Totally with you on that one.  In fact I'd listened to The Worm Cathedral for at least a week (while wondering where the name came from) before the penny dropped.

The Frost* TDL listening party threw up some good ones.  I particularly liked "You are all lions"
Frost*, monkey, trumpet, ARSE!!

It's no Frost* lyrics, but particularly Frost* related  

"A Cube has been found for good old rock, at last"  :lol:
(This Is The News, of course)

As English is obviously not my first language, I guess there's some mis-heard lyrics in almost every song to me  :P

E.S.

That's pure genius!  :lol:

Not actually mis-heard but our Pygmy Hippo likes to come up with alternative lyrics to "Take the heat, it's alright, it's alright"
His favourite is
 
Take the sheep
it's alright, it's alright
Make them bleat
it's all night, it's all night
* May contain nuts.

Funny, I thought it was:
A cure has been found, for good old Rocket Leg... whatever that is  ;)
