The Women of 'The Other Woman', Mad Men S05E11

Mad Men's pivotal, Season 5 Episode 11 ended with a terrific musical flourish: The Kinks' immortal 'You Really Got Me' from 1964, which cuts off over the credits.

Misheard Lyrics: Sleigh Bells' Infinity Guitars

The first half of each verse is apparently:

Deaf chords, dead ends
Sling set can't meet their demands

But I've always heard:
Dumb chords, dumb hens
Sling set cam meet underpants
Dumb whores, best friends
Infinity guitars, ah-ah-ah
