messed lyrics

 Sometimes I don't hear the lyrics in songs correctly


        It's not  "Scuse me while I kiss this guy." 

        And it is not , "Wrapped up like a douche in the middle of the night."

        Yes, you do have to be a bit on the older side to know the correct words.  Or should I say mature.

        I was listening to Sammy Davis Jr. belt out "I've Gotta Be Me" on the oldies channel yesterday.

        Yes, I do listen to the oldies channel instead of the Beatles or Buffet, especially when I have a passenger that enjoys one Beatles song, not all Beatles.  Plus, she says Buffet is a country singer.  Since I can't strap her on the roof of the car, I change to the 60s on Sirius and eventually I get a small Beatles fix..

        Anyway, Sammy ws singing away and I mis understood his last lines.

        He sings, "I can't be right for somebody else if I'm not right for me."

        That that is not what I heard.

        I heard IT instead of I. 

        And yes, I Googled the lyrics to be sure I heard the lyrics incorrectly.

        I agree with Sammy.  If you are not right for yourself, you can't be right for somebody else.

        But here's the rub.

        I think the IT fits better today's world.

        It can't be right for somebody else if it's not right for me.

        I think that is very true.

        And that's all I have to say tonight.

Peace and Love
