Something to be shown alongside traditional lyrics, this would help those unfamiliar with a song to 'get a feel' for it (perhaps so they could sing karaoke to it). It'd be something like the above subtitle.

       This site has lots of misheard lyrics along with what they realy are.   

       it's fun sometimes to read things phoeneticaly, especialy when it involves specific dialects (like Eliza's first speaches in Shaw's Pygmalion), so, croisant.
