Slash revealed: “‘Take me down to the Paradise City where the girls are fat, and they got big titties,’ I think that was my original lyric for it and the other guys changed it. We all thought it was funny but it wasn’t going to make it on the album. I think that’s how it went.”

A few years ago, Cheap Trick released some of their demos from In Color and Heaven Tonight

Father says, "Your mother's right
She's really up on things
Before we married, Mommy served
In the WACS in the Philippines"

Now I had heard that WACs were dykes, old maids either that or whores
But mommy's neither one of those
I've known her all these years

Yep, that's a little different

Kinda works though, considering that Cheap Trick are kinda cringe but a very Pop sorta way ... maybe???

I'm not talking about lyrics that you've always heard wrong, I talking about "well, it was this... but we changed it"
