Audiosyncrasy<\/strong>: \/its quite simple…audio+syncrasy<\/em>\/ The song he sang was hilarious because of his very own audiosyncrasy.. Etymology:<\/em> audio = hearing
\nidiosyncrasy = peculiar habits
\naudiosyncrasy = song was “mis-listened” and peculiar lyrics were inserted into the song… Created by:<\/em> ankur.<\/p>\n

Mondegreen<\/strong>: \/Mawn-deh-green<\/em>\/ I discovered a mondegreen just the other day; I heard Jimi Hendrix’s lyrics in Purple Haze, “excuse me while I kiss the sky” as being “excuse me while I kiss this guy.” Etymology:<\/em> Named for an instance of this phenomenon during a reading of a poem, where in the line “and laid him on the green” was heard as “and Lady Mondegreen.” Created by:<\/em> theodrixx.<\/p>\n

Ballbadear<\/strong>: \/bahl bad eeeer<\/em>\/ his hearing loss turned him into a ballbadear, but when he first heard “tangled up in poo” he became a dylanquent Etymology:<\/em> balladeer, bad ear Created by:<\/em> galwaywegian.<\/p>\n

Leericks<\/strong>: \/lee rix<\/em>\/ As he aged and started losing his hearing, George found listening to songs on the oldies radio harder to do. The main reason was the strange leericks written for each tune. He could never figure out why Tammy sang, “Stan, bite your man” or why Johnny Rivers sang, “Secret Asian Man” or why Bon Jovi sang, “You give love a bandaid”or why Jimi Hendrix sang, “Scuse me while I kiss this guy”. And every time he heard CCR’s Bad Moon Rising, “there’s a bathroom on the right”…he found he needed to use one. Etymology:<\/em> Leer (a suggestive or sneering look or grin;a facial expression of contempt or scorn; the upper lip curls)
\n & Lyrics(the text or words of a popular song or musical-comedy number) & Icks (yucky things) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n
