20%-Off the I Am The Walrus by The Beatles Guitar Tab
THE MISHEARD:
As a teenager in the 1970's I thought they were singing "Pol Pot" (preceding the genius of the Dead Kennedys)... probably because my parents made a big deal of John Lennon's communist sympathies.
Around 15 or 16, a friend convinced me the chant
| Real Lyric | According to Wikipedia, the chanting at the end is "oompah, oompah, stick it up your jumper!" sung simultaneously in the choir as "got one, got one, everybody's got one". |
| Artist | The Beatles (Click for more) |
| Song | I Am The Walrus (Click for more) |
The story:
Just today, on hearing the song again, I decided to look up the lyrics. (Not very embarrassing.) Wanted to see what others heard, though.

So apparently you misheard the lyric as "As a teenager in the 1970s I thought they were singing..." You are such an idiot.
