Foax:
as to the tin ear, i have it:
Used to think Kim Carnes' "The Tide is High" ran a line like:
"She's not the kind of girl who'd use her jaws like that"
And that a line from "Make It Happen" (the "Flashdance" theme) ran:
"Take your pants down, make it happen."
In a Springsteen song ("Nebraska") I mistook "Joe Roberts" for "Dual Roberts"
and there's many more...
by the way, SF Chronicle columnist Jon Carroll has a name for these
(something about "green," i think) and has probably collected a book -
maybe it's that Scuze me while i kiss this guy one...
