This is a funny addition to the discussion. I downloaded the lyrics to
Judas Priest's "Another Thing Comin'" from the UWP lyrics server so that
I could reply offline to another post. Now, I have this album in my
collection, and it always bothered me that the title was what it was (thing)
since I had always heard, "another think coming." (The great Pacific
Northwest, thank you.)

All of the lyrics to albums that do not have lyrics sheets (and Screamin'
For Vengeance does not) are transcribed (sometimes badly) by someone
listening to the song, who then posts them. Please Note:

@SONG: You've Got Another Think Comin'

[...]

If you think I'll sit around while you chip away my brain
Listen I ain't foolin' and you'd better think again.
Out there is a fortune waitin' to be had
If you think I'll let it go you're mad
You've got another think comin'.

[...]

So whoever transcribed the song had never heard _thing_ AND didn't bother
to read the album cover. Interesting, no?
