I should point out the dangers of not knowing what a song's about before you sing it; you can hear a song a dozen times without knowing what the specifics of the lyrics are.
A sang "Salvation" by the Cranberries, both of us hitherto unaware of Ms. O'Riordan's graphic lyrics regarding heroin abuse. It was a bit of an eye-opener; A came off saying "I'm not doing that again".

I am B; she is A.
Another great example of such lyrical dysphasia is "Afternoon Delight". You think it's a cosy little love song; it's actually about bumping uglies after lunch.
