Grammatical Errors in Recorded Music...

I'm sitting here (obviously bored) at work, and I thought that this might make for an amusing thread. Over the years, I've noticed a few grammatical errors by singers on favorite recordings. The first one that always comes to mind is Jimi Hendrix on "Castles Made of Sand" from The Axis Bold as Love album. Near the end of the song, he says: "So castles made of sand slips into the sea, eventually."
Has anyone else noticed this one, or any other interesting gaffes?

Hi Al, 
I have noticed that ambiguous sentence in the past! I'm sure that it means what most people think it means, but it can be taken both ways...

From "L.A. Woman" by The Doors, there's this howler:

"If they say I never loved you
You know they are a liar"

Even when I was a kid this one made me shake my head
