Misheard lyrics

Not enough syllables for the melody, so Bruce had to come up with one somewhere.

Steve forgot the magic word: Being at the wrong place/Just at the wrong time would have worked. :p
 
Well I can't help but hearing to WRITE the storm to a kingdom that will come ...etc...etc

Hmm... I always heard that as And at the wrong time...
 
Same here. "Being at the wrong place and at the wrong time"

I think that's the right lyrics.
I am going to check the leaflet (1998 reedition)... but it is in the car so it will have to wait! :D Listening to it, you might be right... unfortunately, it would make the song worse (the shoe-horn of the Beast has striked again! ;) )
 
In "The Angel and the Gambler" I used to hear one of the verses as:

"There's like a hooker that knocks on your door
You've had a taste of it, still you want more"

In actuality it's "hunger", not "hooker", but I think my version might be more entertaining.
 
Here are a couple from my teenage years:

"She fell in love with his squeezy machine" - From Here to Eternity.

"We must prepare ourselves for the elephants" - Lord Of The Flies.

Yes, that must be a song about Apu and his Squishee machine! :D
