misheard lyrics

When I used to sing "rock-a-bye baby" i thought the words were "and down will come gravy, cradle and all". And I thought my mum was being an idiot when she tried to correct me.

The Genesis song that goes:
"She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah"
i thought went:
" She sees the hat and reaches for the top shelf"
I thought it was about shopping.

in pink's god is a dj..my friend thought that the words were "if god is a dj, then life is an asshole"

theyre actually "if god is a dj, life is a dancefloor"

when i was younger, i used to like a song, dont know who it was by..that had the lyrics "it must have been love but it's over now" mistaking "it must have been love" for "aston villa" (an english footie team if anyones puzzled lol..) (if u know the song, listen, and it will make sense..) and being in awe that someone loved a football team THAT much

you know the Christmas song 'war is over' by Jon Lennon and Yoko Ono? well they do a bit of whispering at the beggining of the track, before the singing starts, and i swear to god they say ''happy Christma Gilcorn'' then ''Happy christmas Julie'' I have listened 2 it alot and even though it can't possibly be that, It really is. Its makes me laugh every year.

I thought Maria Carey's 1998 ballad was 'I'd give my arms' instead of 'I'd give my all'.

"Why dont you fill me up..."

in a song by Hilary Duff and her sister Haylie called Our Lips Are Sealed i swear they're singing "Alex The Seal"

The old classic by the Go-Go's "Our Lips are Sealed" I used to think they said "honest I see you"

Firstly one of my own. I used to think (up until not long ago) that the line in the Bee Gees 'How deep is you love' - 'and you come to me on a summer breeze' was 'and you come to me on a submarine'

Now my wifes and I've heard her singing these.

J. Geils band - centrefold - 'My angel on the cellaphone'

Clash. I fought the law - 'I fought the Lord'

The cure - Love cats - The line 'We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully
Wonderfully pretty' translates in her mind as ' one free one free one free one free city'

Hmmm...

on the song Hot Patootie by Meatloaf from the rocky horror picture show where he sings
'id taste her baby pink lipstick' i always thought he was saying
'my taste a baby uptumstick'
i still wonder what a uptumstick is and why a baby would have one
i always thought it was a huge weapon so why was he licking it!?!

I knew that when my friends said that toxic by britney spears said

your toxic, im slipping under.

Right that second i know they were wrong. It was obviously

Your toxic tongue's slipping under.

Ya know that song "Independent women" or something like that by Destinies Child well i always thought it was "the shoes on my feet i garted the clothes im wearing i farted the car im driving i farted cuz i dependent on it!" and for a long time i kept thinking why would you depend on your farts to get you stuff? but then again anyone who make a song called "bootylicious" probably would depend on farting to make them rich.

I used to think ((Like, one week ago,)) that the words to the Green Day song 'American Idiot', went like this:

'Information, nation, hysteria ...'

When it actually went,

'Information age of hyesteria.'

And I still can't tell if they sing 'Calling out to idiot America!'
or 'Going out to idiot America!'.

Heh. I'm stupid. Yep.

You know that song " the roof, the roof, the roof is on fire", well my friends little sister used to say " the moose, the moose, the moose is on fire"

As a child I just loved Pink Floyd's "Another brick in the wall" One time, my big brother told me they didn't sing "We don't need no education", but "no ejaculation". I was very confused about what kind of pervent band they are...

i've been friends with my friend since we were both in diapers. her mom would always listen to music in the car. there was this one song, i dunno who its by, but it goes "goin to the chapel and we're gonna get married". for the longest time, i thought the lyrics went "goin to the checkbook and we're gonna get buried". it wasnt until i went to a wedding reception when i was 13 that my cousin corrected me.

Buried with the checkbook..

first, i used to think that in elton john's "tiny dancer" when it says "hold me closer, tiny dancer" he was saying "hold me closer tony danza"
also, jimmy eat world's "everything, everything will be alright" i thought was "elephant, elephant will be alright"

When I was about six, I often wondered what a "weewill" was, because my teacher used to play that song about the weewill.

"Weewill, wewill, rock you!"
