Music: Mondegreens
Listened to the King Crimson discs. Court of the Crimson King sounds a lot like early Genesis (or vice versa). Anyway, I heard a mondegreen on the second track, "I Listen to the Wind." One stanza goes:
I'm on the outside looking inside.
What do I see?
Much confusion...
I heard:
I'm on the outside looking inside.
What do I see?
Munchkin Fusion...
The image of melding dwarves was so striking I had to look at the lyrics sheet immediately. What a disappointment to read the actual, pedestrian lyrics. Captain Beefheart forestalls the problem by putting the mondegreens in the original lyrics.
