Neverending Top Ten #4.1: Where did you get that lotion?

Ending the week without a moan, something that might even put a smile on your face.

I recently introduced Sam to the disco classic Rock The Boat by The Hues Corporation on one of our neverending selection of in-car compilations (now up to to Sam #112, if you're counting).

Now whenever he hears the song, he sings along...

"So I'd like to know where

You got the lotion!

Said, I'd like to know where

You got the lotion..."

I have told him the lyric is "notion", and even explained what a notion is, but it doesn't change the mondegreen for him. I'm coming to prefer his version, particularly as I can't help but picture Buffalo Bill from Silence Of The Lambs whenever I hear it...
