It’s Friday, which means it is time for more misheard song lyrics (a.k.a. mondegreens) from Hold Me Closer, Tony Danza, by Charles Grosvenor Jr.
I hope you all enjoy your Halloween tomorrow, and then All Saints Day, Dia de los Muertos, and the end of Daylight Savings Time on Sunday.
| Song Title | Artist/Group | Actual Lyrics | Mondegreen |
| Better Man | Pearl Jam | Can’t find a better man | Can’t find the Vedder man |
| Glorified G | Pearl Jam | Glorified version of a pellet gun | You’re five birds and I’m a pelican |
| Even Flow | Pearl Jam | Thoughts arrive like butterflies | Mozzarella butterflies |
| Get the Party Started | Pink | I’m coming up, so you better get this party started! | I’ve got a knife, so you better get this party started! |
| Back on the Chain Gang | The Pretenders | Now I’m back on the chain gang | Now I’m back on the train, yeah |
| Middle of the Road | The Pretenders | I’m standing in the middle of life with my plans behind me | I’m standing in the middle of life with my pants behind me |
| When Doves Cry | Prince | Maybe, you’re just like my mother | Maybe, I dress like my mother |
| Everything in the Right Place | Radiohead | There are two colors in my head | There are two curlers in my hair |
| Fake Plastic Trees | Radiohead | He used to do surgery, for girls in the eighties | He used to do surgery, for girls in the A-Team |
| Killing in the Name | Rage Against the Machine | Killing in the name of | Kill him with a paintball |
| Bulls on Parade | Rage Against the Machine | They rally ‘round the family, with a pocket full of shells | Runnin’ ‘round the family, with a flock of Polish elves |
