swamp thing,
that's hilarious !

We always liked to sing back when that awful "Sister Christian" song by Night Ranger came out, we'd substitute "More Duran" for "motor ran" ( not sure if that's even right ? )

I heard it as: "we are, we are, we are but your children..." Still sort of religious in nature.

I always sang: We are we are we are the dark children..." I'm going to keep going with that...

To Prince - 'Erotic City' I would always sing: "If we cannot make Belize, maybe we can mate sometime..."
