Fun with translations

One of my fun jobs is called post editing, which means looking at stuff that Google Translate has "translated" and fixing it so it actually makes sense. Here's a sentence I came across today:

And if you just turn if the lift that was just because I envy.

What it meant to say was:

And if you just tuned in, if you're one of those people who just woke up, I envy you.

This is rather different.
