Ok, I confess the first time I heard that sentence, I understood "I want to trip inside your hip(s)". Until I read the lyrics, I thought "wow, Bono makes beautiful rhymes, but that's a bit hot, isn't it?"
lady luck said:another one, I had completely forgotten.
It's from one
"love is a tempo" instead of "love is a temple"
let me explain this: "tempo" means "time" in Italian... I was thought "wow, how cool Bono talks Italian in such a wonderful song..."
sallycinnamon78 said:While we're at it.... wtf is Bono going on about in Elevation? You know the spoken bit?
sounds like "take it out and stick it in a pot" to me.
I started a thread on this earlier but nobody has been able to shed light on this burning issue.

never notice it!
it's where in the song?
Ok. That's a lot of "misheard" lyrics!! But I'm with you, I always thought/sing it as "I'm ungrateful, there's something missing..." too. And can I just say that I think our version makes much more senseangel_of_L.A. said:I was on a Pop bender yesterday evening and as I was singing "Staring at the Sun" I realized that before I knew the correct lines:
"Intransigence is all around... military is still in town
Armour plated suits and ties... daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle God is good but will HE listen
I'm nearly great
But there's something I'm missing I left in the duty free
Though you never really belonged to me"
I used to sing it as:
"Chasing Jesus all around...cuz you know He's still in town. I'm in place with suits and ties...daddy just won't say goodbye. Referee won't blow the whistle God is good but will HE listen.
I'm ungrateful there's something missing...I'm still here Judy's free oh but she never really belonged to me..."
I always wondred who the hell Judy was.
