I assume you know the actual line is "Life's an illusion, love is a dream". I never heard it as anything else, and I'm usually Mr Mondegreen.

OMGWTFLOL: uber-BOS8 (!) Ian Dury -- "Reasons to be Cheerfull" Groucho-Harpo-Chico!

Why don't you get back into bed?
Reasons to be cheerful (part 3)

Some of Buddy Holly, the working folly
Good golly Miss Molly and boats
Hammersmith Palais, the Bolshoi Ballet
Jump back in the alley and nanny goats

18-wheeler Scammels, Domineker camels
All other mammals plus equal votes
Seeing Piccadilly, Fanny Smith and Willy
Being rather silly, and porridge oats

A bit of grin and bear it, a bit of come and share it
You're welcome, we can spare it - yellow socks
Too short to be haughty, too nutty to be naughty
Going on 40 - no electric shocks

The juice of the carrot, the smile of the parrot
A little drop of claret - anything that rocks
Elvis and Scotty, days when I ain't spotty,
Sitting on the potty - curing small pox

Reasons to be cheerful (part 3)
Reasons to be cheerful (part 3)
Reasons to be cheerful (part 3)
Reasons to be cheerful - 1, 2, 3

Reasons to be cheerful (part 3)

Health service glasses, gigolos and brassies
Round or skinny bottoms

Take your mum to Paris, lighting up the chalice
Wee Willy Harris
Bantu Stephen Biko, listening to Rico
Harpo, Groucho, Chico


Cheddar cheese and pickle, the Vincent motorsickle
Slap and tickle
Woody Allen, Dali, Dimitri and Pasquale
balabalabala and Volare

Something nice to study, phoning up a buddy
Being in my nuddy
Saying hokey-dokey, singalonga Smokey
Coming out of chokey

John Coltrane's soprano, Adi Celentano
Bonar Colleano

Reasons to be cheerful (part 3)
Reasons to be cheerful (part 3)
Reasons to be cheerful (part 3)
Reasons to be cheerful - 1, 2, 3

Yes, yes, dear, dear, perhaps next year
Or maybe even now
In which...
case...

[sax solo]
