…is being able to understand every word in “Bennie and the Jets”.
“We’ll fight our parents out in the streets to find out who’s right and who’s wrong.”
Who knew?

I always thought it was “the girl with colitis goes by” instead of “the girl with kaleidoscope eyes”…
A fun example.
For me, I have found a few pieces where I thought the timing of the musicians is wrong. It turns out while listening with the DSD the timing on the CD is actually correct. This continues to amaze me.
“Beelzebub, has a devil for a sideboard me, 'board me, 'board meeeeeeeeee…”
This could be the beginning of a topic thread of “alternative lyrics”. Someone surely could instigate and manage this. I am less inventive and lazy. My entry would be “like a true nature’s child” or “like a

“Scuse me while I kiss the sky”??? -Jimi Hendrix
“Hey (buffalo) BUNGALOW Bill . . .”
…”there’s a bad moon (bathroom) on the right” -
CCR

As an Elkin I believed the lyrics to God Bless America included the line
“Stand beside her and guide her
Through the night with the light from a bulb.”
“Wrapped up like a douche”…I mean, “Revved up like a deuce” – I think.
Best benefit from having the DirectStream dac and PST… I could care less what’s happening in this crazy messed up world, when I’m sitting in my listening room lost in the music.
Thought it was “kiss this pie”- my teenage years have now been shattered.
