there really is a bathroom on the right

One of the most often cited mondegreens is from the song "Bad Moon Rising" by Creedence Clearwater Revival. The line, "there's a bad moon on the rise" is misheard as "there's a bathroom on the right."

So, I was in the car Sunday night -- coming home from a wedding if you must know. I was playing music, and on comes John Fogerty's live version of the song, from his Premonition album.


And, dammit, Fogerty actually sang the bathroom lyric. If you pay attention to the clip above, at about 1:50 you can hear it.
