What Was That?

My three year old has made me laugh lately.

A few weeks ago he heard the song below "Gives You Hell," by American-Rejects and was singing along saying "Makes You Well."

Yesterday I was trying to get him to pick out a Disney movie and I suggested Lady and the Tramp. He said to me, " Let me see Lady and the Jump."

Today we were listening to the radio and we heard the song "Mad," by Ne-Yo, you will have to listen to it below. It is actually a really good song. Anyway after listening to it for a minute he said to me, "That is me." What I asked? "I don't want to go to bed." Isn't that the truth. We hear that every single day no fail.

So it got me thinking. When I was a kid the song Unbelievable, by EMF was popular and my cousin thought that every time they said, "Your Unbelievable" they actually said "Your Arms and Legs Are Cool." I will never forget that! I think of it every time I hear the song.

When Mark was a kid every time he heard the song Dirty Deeds, by AC/DC he thought the lyric "they're done dirt cheap" was actually "The Thunder Chief."


Listen to the songs below and see what you think........

Have you ever been confused about the lyrics? Sometimes it makes for a pretty good laugh!

Motorcycle Coupon


Last week when I was pulling my coupon inserts from the paper my son noticed something he wanted. It was a sporting store ad. I pulled it out and he carried it around for days. Then on Saturday he came to me and said can you cut out my motorcycle coupons? We cut out a couple of the pictures. Now he goes around saying that he is going to get a motorcycle with his coupons.
His dad told him a while back that he could have his first motorcycle when he turns 5. So after playing with his coupons for a while he came to me and said, "Mom, I have a problem, I need to figure out how to be five." He then tried to convince me that he was five.
Two things I know:
1. My coupon stuff is rubbing off on my son.
2. We are not going to hear the end of it until this kid gets a motorcycle.
Maybe I can convince dad that we need to extend the age, that might be easier than convincing my boy. I don't think I am ready for my boy to be on a motorcycle all by himself. Besides those things are expensive and not even my coupon deals can help with that!
