Say what?

Misheard lyrics.  You know, when you or someone else hears a song on the radio and either the singer isn't annunciating quite well-enough, or the listener isn't listening quite closely enough and you wind up with something that you only think you heard.  Anyway, here are some of my favourites:

"secret Asian man" = Secret Agent Man, Barri/Sloan, Johnny Rivers

"excuse me while I kiss this guy" = "excuse me while I kiss the sky" Purple Haze, Jimi Hendrix

"There's a bathroom on the right" = "There's a bad moon on the rise."  Bad Moon, Creedence Clearwater Revival

"I've got two chickens with parrot eyes/to paralyze!" = Two Tickets to Paradise, Eddie Money

"Cuz I've been bakin' carrot biscuits!" = Takin' Care of Business, Bachman Turner Overdrive
