He's Got the Whole World in His Pants: And More Misheard Lyrics

Rating:
Summary: worst use of paper ever
Review: After hearing only a few of the terrible excuses for a "mondegreen", which is the technical term given by the author to describe the misheard lyrics, all of which were blatantly made up by the author because of the terrible examples given, I was astounded that this book made it to print. One horrid example is from Bob Marley and the Wailers, "Jammin'", We're jammin'-I hope you like jammin' too. His example is as follows, "Pajamas-I hope you like pajamas too". I find it hard to swallow that anyone could possibly make such a grievous error. I can't find anything funny about something so obvoiusly aimed at folks who have never heard the actual song. I hope Edwards has not made too much money on this book, as it weakens my belief in the intelligence of our country. I will end my review by saying money spent on this book would be better invested in toilet paper. I can't believe trees died for the publication of this book.

Review: I have almost all of Edwards' books and I can read them over and over. To this day I still find humor in each entry. These books will always be an enjoyable read. Thank you Gavin Edwards!

Summary: This Book is Heinous
Review: This book, no offense to the author, must have been written for simple minded folk who have little interest in music or in intellectual reading material. "He's Got the Whole World in his Pants" is one example of the mindless lyrics Edwards obviously makes up himself, as no single person in the entire world would ever mistake the lyrics of that song for something different. What a waste of time. I mean, seriously, this book is supposed to be a collection of "misheard lyrics", but I think that Gavin is the only person who could ever possibly hear them the way he presents them. Let me give another heinous example of this guy's contrived lyrics: "Michael, row the boat ashore" has been cleverly replaced by "My goat knows the bowling score." Stop insulting my intelligence Mr. Edwards, this stuff is not amusing, it's downright horrendous.
