misheard lyrics

Ya know the song "Stop in the Name of Love", well when I was little I thought the part where they say "Think it o over.. think it o over!"
I thought it was "Stop in the name of love before you break my heart, like a boldozer.. like a boldozer!

When Madonna first came out, she had a song called "La Isla Bonita". A section of the lyrics says, "... A young girl with eyes like the desert....". Well, at first, I thought she was saying "with eyes like potatoes" (no...THAT couldn't have been right! How rude was that for Madonna to compare a girl's eyes to potatoes?!) So I listened and listened. Then I thought she was saying "with eyes like two pesos" (THAT made a bit more sense but what do pesos really look like? And do they look good as eyes??) THEN I finally listened and figured out what the proper lyrics were!! Boy, was I a LOSER!! hee hee!

I misheard 'she just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich' in 'Down Under' by Men at Work. Not having heard of Vegemite then I thought it was a 'bitumen sandwich'. I still annoy my husband by deliberately singing this version whenever it comes on the radio.

I used to dance around the living room like a maniac to ABBA, using a neon green jumprope for a microphone and singing "dancin' on a mo-nack-a-rock" instead of "does your mother know that you're out." I always wondered what a mo-nack-a-rock was. I figured it was a planet.

I used to think in Nirvana's song "Smells Like Teen Spirit" The line "A mosquito, my libido!" was "I'm afraid of, Albino!" I sung it out loud like that numerous times.

In the song "Oh What A Beautiful Morning" from Oklahoma, I used to wonder what was so wonderful about corn that was as high as an elephants eye. I didn't think that an elephants could have an eye that was more than two inches high.

A friend of mine thought that the Alanis Morsette song "Thank you" whose lyrics go:
"...I want to Thank you Thank you..."
They believed that the lyrics were:
"...I want to vacuum, vacuum..."
after hearing it, they proceed to say "Man this chick sure does like to vacuum"
