My Monday Mondegreens

Flaming Lips on Letterman, Mar 06

Mondegreens from two newish college-rock singles:

If you could make an erotic porn
Just so you could be rich
Would you do it?

Flaming Lips - The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song

Don’t fall asleep with a Mormon
She’ll make you sweat in the water

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Phenomena

(I realized I had the Flaming Lips words wrong when I saw them live on Letterman last week. I still don’t know what the real words to the chorus of “Phenomena” - one site I looked at says “Don’t fall asleep with Laura”; another one says “Don’t fall asleep with the motor on.”)
