In my house just before the Christmas kinder concert, Mr 4 was singing Christmas carols and he swears these are the correct words: “We miss you a merry Christmas and a happy new ear”

  • I can’t remember the name of the song or many of the words.
    There is one that is about the moon shining at night.
    The singer doesn’t sing the words very clearly and it really sounds like “the bathroom’s on the right”, so that’s what I sung when I was little, much to a relative’s disgust.

  • As a kid my mum used to play Mike Oldfield a fair bit. I thought the lyrics “he got shot six times by a man on the run” in his song Moonlight Shadow was “he got shot six times by the man in the moon”!
    Wasn’t til mum played her cd again one day when I was older that the correct lyrics actually sunk in.

  • I can’t remember the name of the song or who sang it but one line sounds like “the bathroom’s on the right”. The words aren’t very clear at all.
    We had many laughs about it at work.
