Quote from: "David"It's no Frost* lyrics, but particularly Frost* related  
"A Cube has been found for good old rock, at last"  :lol:
Funny, I thought it was:
A cure has been found, for good old Rocket Leg... whatever that is  ;)
:) Switch one vowel and Jeff Lynne predicted the whole Deep vein thrombosis thing.

And I thought it was a cure for Rocket Lag....as in Jet Lag.

Again..not Frost but related:
I cant' get past Spock's Beard's "Beware Farts that linger" from Beware Of Darkness
There are only 10 types of people]

LivingForever

Welcome to the family
Alone now you belong to me
Your life will be my cup of tea
A reindeer finds your sanity

I'm sure I picked these up from the forum in the very first days of the album- before the lyrics were published!

You thought right, it's indeed the original lyrics  ;)

So that's where it went! Please could you ask him for it back?

Not really heard many Frost ones, but other ones I like are:

"Hang on, while I kiss this guy!" - Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze

"It's a goddamn arseface" - Fall Out Boy - This Ain't A Scene (this one might not work unless you've got a good central Scotland accent!)

Quote from: "Ecosse""Hang on, while I kiss this guy!" - Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze
I believe that Hendrix was aware of this one and even paused in the middle of some performances of Purple Haze to mime kissing another band member.
It's also the source for the title of a site dedicated to misheard lyrics: http://www.kissthisguy.com

Edit: Yep. The full story is on that very site, here!

I'm surprised nobody brought up "Blinded by the Light" by Manfred Mann

We picked up on that one in our college when one of my colleagues had to record a cover version.  :D

Connected to Frost*:

Spock's Beard X- The Emporer's Clothes should be

"And if one of those hose
Happens to have a hole in it
It's not as if anybody's
Gonna notice when it's...

The Emperor's Clothes..."

I heard it as

"And if one of those hose
Happens to have a hole in it
It's not as if anybody's
Gonna notice winnits...

The Emperor's Clothes..."

Still not convinced the printed lyric is right :D

Nice.  :shock:
I had to go to http://www.urbandictionary.com/ to understand this one.
I always like to learn new words.

:shock:

My vocabulary has likewise been expanded.

They're what our Antipodean friends would call "dags" or "daglocks", then.

I was listening to the Dividing Line today, and just happened to notice...

Real lyric (near the end): 'You are all liars!'

What I heard (with traffic and other noises in the background): 'YOU ARE A LION'

I sniggered. =P

Pedro

This proves that your Frost*ie-sense is working perfectly! :)
"Putting food on the table is more important than 7/8"

I've been wearing my Frost* tee from the Bilston gig today as well! Clearly some form of Frost*-related sign =P

Paulo Nutini - 10 out of 10

Should be - " I wanna get 10 out of 10"

I hear - "I can't get out of bed"
