"Up All Night"
Misheard Lyrics: Left a good job girl
Big city streets The only real difference is in the people you meet Original Lyrics: African jungle
Big city streets The only real difference is in the people you meet |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Doug Erdmann For years, this song was used by West Coast sports talkshow host Jim Rome on his radio program 'The Jungle'...very catchy tune, but I thought, 'why the hell would Jim Rome choose a Boomtown Rats song?'...I thought Geldof was saying 'left a good job girl', but if you look in any Boomtown Rats liner notes or discographies, you'll find he's singing, 'African Jungle' as the first lyric of the song. I guess that was Romey's connection with it. |
"She's So Modern"
The Dated Lyrics: She's so 20th century
She's so 1970's Why They're Dated: Bob Geldof wrote them about Paula Yates, who WAS fashionable in 1978-9. Now it would relate to a 70's throwback.

"I Don't Like Mondays"
The Lyrics: Tell me why I don't like Mondays (3X)
I wanna sho-o-o-o-t the whole day down. Why: Another fact-based tragic song with an upbeat melody. Based on 16-year-old Brenda Ann Spencer's shooting spree in San Diego. Ironic, since Brenda herself was upbeat (as in remorseless) when she told the authorities "I don't like Mondays. This livens the day."
