There's a bathroom on the right

Hey little thing let me light your candle
Cause your mamma's a show-off to handle now, mess around
-Ashley, doing The Black Crowes Hard to Handle

In a similar vein, Check to Check lyrics, sung by Irving Berlin, Ella Fitzgerald, and many more - the version I have is Sinatra. I always sang the lyric as this:
Heaven, I'm in heaven
And my HEARTBEAT'S so that I can hardly speak

You as in, "My heartbeat is so (fast) that I can hardly speak." His heartbeat is going so fast that he can hardly speak. It is pounding in his ear or something. I was listening to the song the other day and it just dawned on me - heart (space) beats. His heart beats so that blah blah blah. Opps. Heaven, I'm in heaven
And my HEART BEATS so that I can hardly speak

Also it wasn't to long ago till I stopped singing the lyrics to this Billy Joel song incorrectly:
Uptown girl
She's been living in her white BRED world
I bet she never had a backstreet guy

I knew she was white (Christy Brinkley in the video) and I figured she was bred properly (raised in schools of etiquette or something). I don't really know... that was just me being stupid. I never really bothered to listen beyond what I already thought it meant. Well damn you Christy Brinkley and damn your Wonder-Bread.
Uptown girl
She's been living in her white BREAD world
I bet she never had a backstreet guy

She's got a chicken to ride,
And it's in her hair.

Name that tune, and correct the lyrics.

She's got a ticket to ride
But she don't care

Ticket to Ride, The Beatles (yuck)

My question: A ticket to ride what?

How about this one:
The ants are my friends
And they're blowin' in the wind
The ants are blowin' in the wind

The answer, my friend
is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Blowin' in the Wind, Bob Dylan (but has been covered by many other artists)

And the answer to your question can be found here.
