Creativity
(noun)
When you come up with impromptu, random lyrics (that do not bear any resemblance to the actual lyrics) when you feel like singing a particular song but don’t know, or can’t quite remember the lyrics or are too lazy to google it up.
This post was written in response to today’s One-Liner Wednesday challenge from Linda G. Hill. The challenge, as the name implies is to come up with a one-liner. Please click on the link to know more about the rules of this challenge and/or to read the other entries by my fellow bloggers.
I make up fake lyrics all the time! 😉
Do you have any similar stories (good and bad!) to share? The comments section is all yours.
Wherever you are, I hope you are safe and well. Take care.

You know that song “aap jaisa koi mere zindagi mein aaye to baat ban jaye” … till about mid teens, I used to replace baat with “baap” ☺️

The Grateful Dead song Ramble On Rose always had me singing the wrong words, because I thought it was about me. They mention Mary Shelly and Frankenstein and then they say, “Clank your chains and count your change and try to walk the line.” I always thought this was “Thank you James” not “Clank your chains.”

It happens. Sometimes I get stunned when I take the time to Google the actual lyrics. It’s so different from what I thought I was.

Sometimes I transcend different languages to make up for the lyrics to a point where it gets amusing. Creativity in cross language collaboration 😀
