    Alligator lizards in the air, in the air...

    Artist: America
    Real Lyric: Alligator lizards in the air, in the air...



    The story:

    Is there a word for the inverse of a
    mondegreen? Because that's what this apparently
    is.

    Since this song was on the Top 40 back in the
    seventies, being infamous for my hearing
    dyslexia, I was always absolutely positive that
    I was mishearing this phrase as "alligator
    lizards in the air." "There is just no way this
    can be the actual lyrics," I thought. So after
    all these years, I finally got around to
    looking it up, and what do you know. It IS
    "alligator lizards."

    So here we have an example of the phenomenon
    turned inside-out. How often does that happen?
