And someone (Paul Simon, I think) had a record in the early 70s that began, "When I think 
back on all the crap I learned in high school, it's a wonder I can think at all."  Some stations 
played it that way, but WBZ modified it, dubbing in the first line of the next verse, so that it 
went, "When I think of all the girls I knew when I was single, it's a wonder I can think at all."  
It made a lot less sense that way.
