Misunderstood song lyrics

[Zambero]

1. Jimi Hendrix Purple Haze

"Scuse me while I kiss this guy". Actual lyric refers to "the sky". Jimi was in on the joke early-on at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival and took it to another level. When that line in the song came up, he used the "alternative" lyric while motioning in the direction of bassist Noel Redding, who he'd introduced as being Bob Dylan's grandmother. And to top it off, he burned and smashed his guitar, upstanding The Who, which was no small accomplishment.
