lol i picked up "Burn to Death" off a misheard-lyrics site circa 2005 and it absolutely defines the song to me. terrifying.

lol, yeah, I hope it hasn't permanently ruined the song for me (e.g. that thing where I can't not hear Falco sing 'hot potatoes, hot potatoes').

Van Halen's "Hot for Treacher" is an all time favorite, the well known classic about Roth's fetish for fish n chips

lol i'm just going to take it all the way to being a boastful metaphor concerning his rock-star success: "I've got it made, I've got it made, I've got it made - I'm Arthur Treacher." sort of an "i think i'm Big Meech, Larry Hoover" type thing, but fast-food fish-n-chip related.
surprised to learn there is exactly one Arthur Treacher's establishment left. also that "Arthur Treacher" was a successful British actor whose affiliation with the company was kept vague. i think i'd always figured he was like ColoneL Sanders, or possibly Captain D.

lol wow. I never ate there either - just walked by one in the mall many times as a then fish-hating youth.
oh wow he was Constable Jones in Mary Poppins!

I think it’s “Got it bad, got it bad…” etc though admitttedly Roth’s accent makes it sound kinda funny
― Josefa, Sunday, 26 September 2021 18:34 (two years ago) link
it is, but I misheard it as "made" the first time and have never entirely shaken it.
