The Story: Don't eat the fruit in the garden, Eden,, It wasn't in God's natural plan., You were only a rib,, And look at what you did,, To Adam, the father of Man.
The Story: You smell like goat, I'll see you in hell
This song was on the radio the other day when my
wife and I were out for a drive. I never listened
to the words, but these lyrics stood out to me. I
asked my wife if the song was about Jesus. She
looked at me like I was crazy.

Ed Sheeran is English, and his native accent helped him pronounce the word "grass" the English way. But if one want to use American English when he sings, it sounds weird when he mixes it with British English. Otherwise, it's understandable to think the song's referencing Jesus like Phil thought. I also misheard "dancing in the dark" as "duncing in the dark", which would probably mean something like wandering foolishly in the dark ("dunce" meaning a stupid person, hence "duncing"), but that's another story. But the idea that Sheeran would be referencing Jesus is indeed a very humorous one, considering it's wrong and it doesn't fit the context of the song. So I voted "Funny".
