What a hoot. The scary part is that some of your misquotes could be the actual lyrics.
Ohhhhhh MY! I can see how a few of them got confused though! But some are really a bit OFF!
For an embarassingly long time, I thought this:
R-E-S-P-E-C-T take out T-C-P.
Uh...rese? What the heck is that??

Very clever list!
