My entire life whenever I sang “Surfin’ USA” I would sing “If everybody had a notion across the USA.”
It wasn’t until I heard my girls singing it a couple of weeks ago that I learned that I have been singing the wrong words for about three decades. Did you know that the Beach Boys are actually saying “If everybody had an ocean across the USA”????
Someone please tell me you have been singing “a notion” this whole time, too.
(Okay, now I must admit that one song I definitely do know all the correct words to is “Puppy Love.” Even if I’m wrong, I’ll never admit it!)
I never even thought about it!!!
You can’t surf in a “notion”. You crack me up.
