alright some of them I know are song lyrics first and some of them I know are sayings first but it's still fun! come share your thoughts and your lyrics!
I will say though that the best version of 'Its a Man's World' was by Christina Aguleria during some award show, ironic, huh?

My guess is most of those are not original to the songwriter, but I'd be hard pressed to say which!
ReplyDeletei have a feeling that the Rolling Stones ones could very possibly be original, they are the stones after all.
ReplyDeleteits a fun thought either way.
