Upon second thoughts it's probably because of Bruce's rhythm of speech and the fact that it would rhyme with "do" and "you".
in Nineteen Eighty-Two
This is what not to do
If a bird shits on you
The production team forbidden him from attending because at the pre-release private screening he repeated all the dialogues and the lyrics and when they asked if he could not do it, he replied "I wrote the bloody words and I'm telling 'em to my last breath!"
It's not lyrics and it's not actually misheard, but any time the Flight 666 version of ROTAM comes to my mind, I remember Bruce's intro as "I'm introducing this song the same way I did in Long Beach Arena in 1982: this is what not to do if a bird shits on you".
Which is utter bullshit because...
Rainmaker is an very hard song to sing on stage. High pitched and fast. Which is a shame because it's their best reunion shorter IMHO (and the best since Be Quick or Be Dead, or Judas Be My Guide), and by a very long shot.
Saw a Reddit post opening a fresh and innovative discussion: our favourite solo by Davey.
Fates Warning (intro). Bloody brilliant.
Powerslave (1st solo). Quite an expected answer for this sort of question, but I guess there is a good reason for that.
Hallowed Be Thy Name (Rock in Rio). Sheer...
Well let's be frank, it's not like Nicko will be on tour, is it?
No they had a show in Singapore. Bruce actually mentioned the Grammy ceremony going on, if memory serves.

You'd hardly find a lower-quality track in the whole album.
My highlights are actually in the second half: "Deathcry of a Race" which would by my choice were I asked to name the best track out of the album — love the melodies, the rousing chorus (Sammet is truly incredible), the operatic...
Re-listened to The Source lately.
Everybody was speaking about "The Day That The World Breaks Down" back then, and rightly so, but can we just stop for a moment and appreciate what an incredible track "The Human Compulsion" is?
Dunno.
"King" is very good (best track in the lot for me) but it also is much darker than both the original Keepers were, should even the comparison be with "Halloween"—which has a jolly/happy metal side, with the Peanuts reference and the polka-like riff towards the end. While "King" remains...
Legacy was only titled "Keeper of the Seven Keys" because "Rabbit Don't Come Easy" had failed and they wanted to secure incomes with a Keeper-centric tour.
It had nothing to share with the OG twin albums. Different band, sound, even the main songwriting contributions.
