Song lyrics you've misheard that are perfectly acceptable - perhaps even better - substitutes

…and TIL that the lyric isn’t

“out of a job - you can’t tell me that I’m not”

I guess I could have learned that five years ago.

Also, I like my version of the end of the chorus

“If not, just stop
Don’t say ‘yeah’, and not”

just as well as the real one

“If not, just stop
Don’t stay there and rot”

That *is *better! Or even “nod” would be better. “Rot” never really worked for me.
