Winter Wonderland- Why so hot?

So for those of you that know me- I am sure you are aware of my awesome singing skills! I know the correct words to almost any song. So you can understand why I was baffled this holiday season when I learned that I had been singing (or belting out) a tune using the wrong word.



ok- for those of you that really know me.... or if you are part of my family- you are probably rolling your eyes and laughing pretty hard right now.... ok ok I confess- I have been known to get a few words wrong in a song- every now and again- BUT in my defense- my words usually make more sense!



As in the case here-



So....



The song: Winter Wonderland



The Lyrics:

He'll say: Are you married?

We'll say: No man,

But you can do the job

When you're in town



Later on, we'll conspire,

As we dream by the fire

To face unafraid,

The plans that we've made,

Walking in a winter wonderland.



The second verse here is where we have the dispute. OK- who "conspires" while they dream by the fire??? I mean- really- what does that even mean? Conspires what?



It makes WAAAAYYYY more sense that you would "perspire" as you sit (or dream) by the fire. I mean- come on! the fire is HOT!



Try it out- sing it with MY words in it- it totally goes way better! Trust me- we now have a fire place in our new house- and not ONE time have I sat by it to "conspire"- anytime I sit by it- it's a for sure "perspire".



You don't have to take my word for it people- go sit by your own fire and just see what happens.



I have to admit- it's a good thing I looked up these lyrics- I found a few more that make no sense- *sigh* I guess until they see my side of this I will have to correct some of my singing.



HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO EVERYONE!!! STAY SAFE AND WARM (not perspire warm- but you know... cozy and warm)
