    The Village People song? It's about a milk shake isn't it?
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        The song in my mind was from an R&B singer who sings about how her milkshake brings all the boys to the hard because it's the best. So it must be a song about a caramel flavoured milkshake.

          I'd be really impressed if they came in different flavours,


          Oh, errrr.

            When I was a (very) young kid, I used to mis-hear the lyrics to the chorus - I thought they were singing "Vinny Barbarino" instead of "Million Dollar Riff" and that it was a tribute to Welcome Back Kotter

              My favourite in that area is people mishearing Elton John's Tiny Dancer as "Hold me closer Tony Danza..."

                That actually makes more sense than "hold me closer, tiny dancer"

                  Didn't Travolta have a little song he sang about Vinnie Barbarino that the other sweat hogs used to sing along to?
