Our middle school chorus teacher printed out the lyrics to this song, thinking it was a cute pop song we could all learn easily to pad out a recital, since it was still on the radio all the time.
She was a really innocent lady, and a recent imigrant from Bulgaria, and I can only assume didnt know a lot of the euphemisms, like going down on someone.
We took turns pointing out different inappropriate lines, and I remember reading out loud, "then I bumped up, i took the hit that I was given, then I bumped again, then i bumped again, and I said 'how do I get back to the place where I fell asleep inside you?'"
And explaining, so hes just snorted a line and 3 small ones, and now hes reminiscing about sex- how the fuck did this ever get onto the radio?"
Funny enough, I remember us talking about the crystal meth line, and most of us thinking it wasnt that big a deal, because 1/3 of our class was on adderal, and its basically the same thing, right? (We were all 13, so) at least its not cocaine!
The original lyrics for the chorus were changed because the song was too much of a downer. "I want nothing else. To get me through this, semi charmed kinda life."
I was dressing my daughter once and couldnt find the hood on her jumper. And I went "Where the hood where the hood where the hood at... I dont want you repeating a single other line from this song ever"
i like how the black-orange cat seems to be moon-walking :)
What song is this? 😮
BTW I've had similar experiences but since the kids around here don't speak English it's not much of a problem.
"Semi-Charmed Life" by Third Eye Blind
Had to take a quick listen and, holy shit, there is what may be the most wholesome comment thread on YouTube on this song about addiction. What a crazy world.
