The wolf is hungry, he runs the show! He’s licking his lips, he’s ready to win! On the hunt tonight for love at first sting! |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Frank Plowman This was my Maternal Uncle David Jackson who misheard the lyrics. As we were driving from Milwaukee to St. Louis for our Labor Day Weekend, this song came on and he says “I never knew that he would say that he has to mow his lawn before he goes to bed and talks about a wolf running a show and hunting love in Brazil”. We laughed so hard that we almost ran off the road and almost peed our pants! We went to a rest area outside of Springfield and we were laughing while going potty. And when we got out, 4 Vietnam War Veterans asked us what was so funny and we told them and they had a really good laugh! |

Nonsensical Song Lyrics:
"Blackout"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: My head explodes, my ears ring,
I can't remember just where I've been Why They're Nonsensical: First, how can he be telling us anything if his head has exploded, second, how could he know his ears are ringing if they're no longer attached to him (they probably came off when his head exploded), and, third, why is he so worried about where he's been anyway? He probably has more important things to think about (which he can't really do anyway because his brain also left when his head exploded) then where he's been like whether or not anyone has cleaned the walls after his (probably very messy) head explosion.

| "The Zoo"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: We eat the night, we drink the time
Why They're Nonsensical: This is probably supposed to be metaphorical, but literally it is not possible because night and time in general are not edible things.

Dated Song Lyrics:
"Wind Of Change"
The Dated Lyrics: The world is closing in
Did you ever think That we could be so close like brothers The future's in the air I can feel it everywhere Blowing with the wind of change Why They're Dated: No outright dating, though it's set in Moscow, and if any one song captured the hopes of a new era after the fall of the Berlin Wall, this is it. How long ago it feels.

The Dirty Lyrics: The bitch is hungry, she needs to tell. So give her inches and feed her well.
Why They're Dirty: Seems obvious it's referring to feeding her a male member.
