Similarly, still maintain that Billy Corgan sings on ‘Today’ -
“My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My willy stings”

I remember my sister driving me around in our mum’s car when we were teenagers and being like “I always listen to Radio X because I like it when they play that new Courteeners song - ‘The Man Stinks’”… This is the song she was talking about, and it was like 5 years after The Cribs released it.

Adult Acne Stigmata by Los Campesinos!
I thought it was
“And what could I expect
From living like a Tarot in the Pokédex”
And this week I learned it’s “poker deck”, which when you think about it does make more sense, but I think I just associate Gareth Campesinos! with Pokémon because he’s friends with my wife on Pokémon Go and she’s always proudly telling me when they exchange Pokémon Go postcards.
I had no idea what the lyrics to Airbag by Radiohead were for years. Once I found out, i really liked the song.
Like A Friend by Pulp
It’s “You are the car I never should have bought”
And not what I thought
“You are the cop I never should have fought”
