THE MISHEARD:

It brings out your best, 'cos you're dirty.
| Real Lyric | With you in that dress, my thoughts, I confess, verge on dirty. |

The story:
I was quite happily singing along with this, and I commented to a friend how insulting it was for Dexy's girlfried to be called 'dirty'. I realised that for nearly twenty years I had been singing it wrong!
