Subject: T-shirt design #2 - PLEASE: Suggest misheard song TITLES/REFRAINS

Written By: ChuckyG on 01/27/05 at 12:15 pm

I'm looking for misheard lyrics, but stuff that would be found in the most memorable parts of a song, and would be obvious without telling someone the original song, or title.  The challenge here, is that I can't use famous names or song titles along with the misheard lyric. 

"Excuse me while I kiss this guy"  would be a good example, (but unusuable since it's one of the Gavin Edwards books and I don't want to advertise his books for him >grin<)

I'll probably use at least ten of these, maybe twenty, and present it as a quiz on the back of the t-shirt, with the answer key on amiright.

Best way to leave your suggestions, just post the lyrics, without who it is.  If people can guess it (without cheating by looking on the site), then it's probably acceptable.

But the chair is not my son!

Lou, zing my religion!

Well since she put me down, there've been owls puking in my bed.

They missed her trampoline, man!

So gently swaying to the ferret and the dove

I'm just a sailor with a rock in my bag

She seems to have a physical dutchess
She reaches in, and grabs my pony, uh-huh.

She's got the hands of an invisible Duchess

She's in a hut, an invisible hut, yeah

So fairly, controversy

Girls who shop like her are something rare

I fall on the floor and I lactate!

Parsely saved Rosemary in time

Hello Douglas, my old friend

The sound of Simon

Whoops, didn't see this one here. Ignore ramblings from #1.

OLDIES:
"While sheperds washed their socks by night..."
"Round young virgins smothered their child..."
"O, omelette us adore him..."


NEWBIES:
"Try to scratch my toe, it's aching and ulcerated..."
"Endeavour for Pete's sake to type, I won't bite.
I'm pleadin': jot a comment."



Putting the first syllable back in controversy:
"I plunger lesions to the flag of the Benighted States of America,
And toot the repugnance of witches' dance.
Crustaceans, underarms, individuals with lemon tea and crumpets for all."

So do you also want people to say what they think the songs are that these misheard lyrics are from?

I haven't worked all of them out yet but recognise lots of them.

I think for now, let's just try and list out the ones that would be most obvious.  I'll produce a list of the top contenders in a week or so, with a seperate answer sheet, and ask people how they did.  The lyrics people get more often, would be the best ones to use.

wow, can't believe that one hasn't made it into the list yet.

I love the suggestions so far, lots to pick from.

I think there should be at least one country tune and maybe one or two rap songs too, to help make it somewhat balanced...

I'll probably try and incorporate an image or two based on the lyrics in there too, so stuff like "pet shark" would translate well into that line of thinking.

You can't buy meat with your pants down

Wrap your hands around my inches

I want a piece of David

The boy's too young to be sniffing the glue

I want a piece of date bread

I'd love to find an ounce along the road

Who let the dolls out?

The cat's not being your pen pal

Who let the hog shout?

Burning off the fumes of ethanol

Who wrote the Dawes Act?

Oh Bennie, she's a hurricane

She's got electric boobs, a mohair suit

Hold me closer, Tony Danza

She's got electric boobs, and no hair, too

Looking for my log shaker and saw

Looking for my lost favorite song

She's got electric boobs, Her mom has two

She's got electric boobs, I know her do

She's got a Lenny Bruce, a no-hairdo

You know I'm ready and I'm Pakistani

Goodbye, normal genes

Crocodile rocket and the sound of chocolate

Back to the Hobbit Hole out in the woods

Back to the Hollywood town in the woods

Hold me close, I'm tired of dancin'

I want a piece of datebread

Row Misty Watt Sue

Somebody's done somebody's song wrong

Leopold's my big brass bed

Poops, I did it again

Oops, I just ate your brain

I'm not that annisette

I'm not that anaesthetic

Burning all the shoes I've ever known

Butt crack, baby butt crack

I'm not that talented

Cheeseburger and carrot eyes

Hoisted away again by my girl Rita Bell

Lookin for my lost favorite dog

Lookin for that Don Shafer and Son

She's got electric boobs, a mohawk too

She's got electric boobs and mohair pubes

Lookin for my lost gibberish dog

Some people claim that there's a worm on the blade

But I know, it's my own grandpa

Searchin for my lock, sugar, and shawl

Hold me closer, Chinese panda

Searchin' for my log-shaker and saw

Searchin' for my lost neighbor's dog

She's gotta let me booze, I know her too

She's got electric boobs - I know, Jesus

She's got electric boobs, I know her do

Searching for my large yager with malt

Hold my clothes and tie me down, sir

Searching for my lost jiggerous thought

Irwin Allen says our hair is long

Smell the shrapnel beginning to boil

Stepped on a pop tart

You can't eat meat in the penthouse

Strummin' my sex change

Wasted away again in Macarenaville

Wastin away again in my gorrilla-boo

I think Wolveroses is on to something here. I think a great way to sell T-shirts would to throw on a list of the top 100 (or whatever) most prolific parody authors. I personally wouldn't make it a one-author-per-line list with numbers or scores, but rather just a big paragraph-style list, i.e.:

Malcolm Higgins * William Tong * Rick Duncan * Guy DiRito * Michael Pacholek
John A. Barry * Tokusou Sentai Blessranger * Phil Alexander * Johnny D * Royce Miller
Chris Bodily TM * Alvin Rhodes * S.T.G. * Arcade Junkie * Green Bloodied Hound Dogs
(etc.)

It's the concert T-shirt philosophy. Billy Joel doesn't list PROVO, UT on his shirts because he's bursting with pride over playing in Provo; he does it because he knows that throwing that text on there will sell hundreds more T-shirts to the BYU crowd. People like to advertise themselves and the fact that they're part of something deemed T-shirt worthy. Same goes for those "Herbert Birdsfoot High School Class of 1997" T-shirts that list the name of everyone in the class. You see your name on there and you can't NOT buy it.

It's just a thought. If you list somebody's favorite parody title or misheard lyric, that somebody becomes the one person most interested in the shirt. But if you list 100 names, suddenly you've got 100 interested consumers.

I'd buy at least one. (I like to advertise myself and the fact that I'm part of something deemed T-shirt worthy.)

Although I can see the reasoning behind listing the top 100 (or whatever) parody artists isn't that also going to work in reverse.  i.e. might there be more of a market for random people looking for misheard lyrics who spot a t-shirt with one on and want to buy it. 

I'd be more inclined to buy a misheard lyric that I liked than a list of the names of people here.  (Sorry guys)

No apology necessary, karen - you make a very astute commercial point.

People who don't know the AmiRight authors will not give a hoot about authors' names, but they will jump at the chance to buy a T-Shirt that has their favorite funny mis-heard lyric(s) on it.

I guess it depends on how the site is 'marketed' and listed when people search for misheard lyrics.  I don't know if it comes up during a google search for example.  Or is there a link from the misheard lyrics/amiright bit?

Mr. Armstrong, you're right, too - a T-Shirt with lots of authors' names would sell very well amongst the authors, so Chucky could do perhaps one or two printings of those and be pretty much assured of a decent R-O-I which he could then re-invest in more lyrics-oriented merchandise.

I once received a Bob and Tom sweatshirt as a gift, and I stopped wearing it because people kept asking me about it (B&T weren't available in the area at the time).  I hate explaining stuff, especially to random strangers.  So for me, the more self-explanatory the better.  Again, I'd be far more likely to buy AmiRight gear as gifts if it's accessible to "outsiders" and amusing in some way.  If I want a shirt with my name on it (or "Tokusou Sentai Blessranger"'s, for that matter), I can just get out a sharpie marker and do it myself.

a parody authors t-shirt might be interesting.  Certainly it has no appeal for people who just visit the site, but for authors it certainly would.  I could design one and offer it on the site for a month or two before we do the misheard lyrics shirt.

I could pull the list into Adobe Illustrator and give it an interesting layout like I did for the 80s performer list I did for my graphic design class last year. I can't find the PDF of the design I did, but I can't print it on a t-shirt through cafepress (mentions registered/trademarked names).  Basically, I would just print the names up in some kind of pattern.  Maybe make the busiest authors on the site proportionally larger names or something.  The shirts are full color, so I'd want to do something to take full advantage of that.

I did one of these my senior year in high school, way back in '91.  There were way more names, so it was less interesting of a design.

incase anyone wonders, I make $2 on the shirts.  I set it up more or less for people who might want them, I'm not going to retire on t-shirt sales or anything.  I actually keep the credit at the site, and occasionally print something custom for a friend or incase I need one if I'm doing a newspaper interview.  Though I haven't done one of those in ages.  Maybe when inthe80s turns ten years old, I can drum up some free press. 

I imagine for the authors, they might be fun if there's an author get together (there have been some small group get togethers already).

I already do that with ALL my shirts, but I thought it would be novel to have one that looks like I bought it that way.

It's pretty much the site regulars who are gonna buy the shirts. But since we do want to toss a bone to the outsiders (and Claude), a misheard lyrics shirt certainly would do that better. It sounds like Chucky can give it to us both ways, though, so giddyup.

Some of my favorite misheard lyrics:


Lock the Cash Bar

She's got a tic in her eye (Props to Merry & Pippin)

The girl with colitis goes by

Now they know how many hos it takes to feel the albatross

Mall of King Tut

Massage in a Brothel (More props to Merry & Pippin)

Big ol' Chad and Lionel
-or-
Big ol' Chad in a lineup

Humpin' the heart-attack clown

It's just a sprinkling for to make wings

Our shadow's taller than asssholes

Boyd the weakling milliplede/
Songs that made them hip-hooray

Clowns in my coffee
-or the extended version-
I had some dreams there were clowns in my coffee

(Don't Fear) The Beaver

...and of course...

They only come in chartreuse and puce. RTFM.

I'd love to see the two of you modeling them.  Perhaps as a selling point on the site?

Put me down for 100 Claude Prez toilet brushes.

Seriously though, regarding the misheard lyrics vs author names argument; I think there's a market for both- I'd certainly get one of each. I'm not even sure which one would have the bigger market.

I think authors on the shirt is an awesome idea.

And I think the shirt is in general a great idea.

And my favorite four mis-heards thus far are:

'But the chair is not my son'

'Hold me closer, Tony Danza'

'Hit me with your pet shark'

and 'She's a prick, ouch'

don't worry, if you've got at least 25 or so, I'm sure you will.  Not sure if I'll put as many people on the next one or not.  I think the last time I did about 300 people, down to people who submitted 13 parodies or more.

it won't be the same design either, I had other ideas at the time, but I can't remember what they were now...

that would be way too many.  like I said, last time I went down as far as 13 parodies.  No idea how far this time.
