I love interesting or funny song, word and popular saying origins. The person with the best one(s) get the ten points!
An example of my own:
According to a song lyrics site I was reading, (I can't remember which one, *sadface*) The song Eleanore by the Turtles was written as a satirical look at pop songs, because their record company was making them sing poppy songs like "So Happy Together" and they wanted to sing other types of music.
This probably explains the "you're my pride and joy, etc." line. XD
Anyhow, I look forward to reading your responses!
