When I was younger, I mistook (from "The Saga Begins") the lines "A lot of folks were croakin'/The battle droids were broken" to mean "A lot of folks were saying the battle droids were broken" (i.e., a single idea) as opposed to "A lot of folks were dying/The battle droids were broken" (i.e., two separate ideas). Which is weird (Al), because I think even as a kid I knew the use of "croak" as slang for "die"...
