Thou Giveth Beaver

Joelle said around lunch time on May 28, 2008

In one of our afternoon tangents, I mentioned to Kathy that the song Fever (made popular by Peggy Lee) is pretty funny if you swap “fever” with “beaver"… because sometimes my sense of humor is stuck on pubescent. I’d just stumbled across it in my media player and I was reminded of a time an old friend of mine and I were in Express at the mall and we heard some Euro remix of it while we were waiting to be rung up. We could swear they were saying “bevah!”, which of course, sent us into the giggles.

So, I’m telling Kathy about this and we’re listening to the song together, laughing about the lyrics: “chicks were born to give you beaver”, “beaver till you sizzle” and “beaver in the mornin’, beaver all through the night” being our faves… with “what a lovely way to burn” not far behind. If it burns, you have a situation. Anyway, after a few minutes, Kathy says, “I would laugh so hard if someone did an animated beaver to this song.”
