This is actually my stepsister's but well here it goes:
She used to think that in that song "Drity Deeds Done Dirt Cheep"(i dont know the actual song title but thoes are the lyrics that she mixed up)that they were saying "thirty deeds and a thunder chick". One day we were sitting in a CHURCH parking lot waiting to meet someone to go out to eat and we were listing to that song. She sang almost all of the lyrics and when it got to that part she sang it as she thought it was. My mother and myself could hardly contain our laughter.

I used to think that "Anxiety" by Pat Benatar had these lyrics: "Sometimes in the city, sometimes in my car, I pound on the windows, I could pee inside a jar."

Found out years later that it was "like a bee inside a jar". D'oh!

I believed that the words to 'White Flag' by Dido were "I will go down with this shit, I won't poke my eyes out and surrender. There will be no1 left but my duck" When the actual words were: "I will go down with this ship, I won't poke my hands up and surrender, there will be no white flag above my door". How embarrassing!

A friend of mine believes that the song by Shania Twain goes "cum in my hair, do it again. Man, I feel like a mormon." Gee , just what do those mormons get up to!!!

When Destiny's Child started to become really popular and "Jumpin, Jumpin" was on the radio a lot, my aunt used to get angry at my cousins and me for singing along because she thought it said, "...the club is full of ballers and they cocks is full grown..." instead of "...the club is full of ballers and they pockets full grown..." It took us laughing hysterically at her and actually looking up the lyrics to prove it to her before she believed us. Everytime we hear it, we still make fun of her by singing her lyrics 'til she's red in the face.

I only ever heard the song "Camptown Races" once. Every other time I heard it, the guy was just mumbling nonsense. It was that cartoon-rooster guy (I don't remember his name). When I heard my friend singing it, I thought he said "Camptown Racists". What confused me even more was that the first line or so is "Camptown Races sing this song, doo-dah, doo-dah...". How can a race sing a song? Do they mean a race like white, black, etc.? Some songs don't make sense to me!

I used to think the song "Sunglasses At Night" (I guess that's the title) was saying, "Don't mess afraid with a guy in shades, oh no." I thought it was telling people not to doodoo (mess) while you are scared when you are in the same bathroom as a guy in sunglasses. It made no sense, I don't know WHY I thought that.

Tim McGraw did a remake of Elton John's "Tiny Dancer." Until recently, I thought it said, "Baby darlin', she's a Lennon" meaning that she could sing really well. It's really "Lay me down in sheets of linen," but I still sing the Lennon line.

top belief!

To a classic song my brother thought the words were as follows: "Home, home on the range. Where the deer and the ENVELOPES play." The oddity of such a situation never seemed to occur to him.

worringly until quite recently i thought that in Will Smith's song - Boom Shake the Room they were singing "pump it up CHRIS" instead of "Pump it up PRINCE". Actually i've sung that out loud and no-one ever corrected me... so that's why they laughed !!

I believed that Tori Amos sang "My heart is sick of beaning cheese!" It took a lot of Internet-searching to find out that, in fact, she intended "My heart is sick of being in chains". Well, "Crucify" will always be The Cheese Song to me!

A collegue of mine was singing along to the song "It's the final countdown" at discoteque in Turkey. The DJ faded the music and all we heard from her was:
"There's a fire in downtown..." - Classic

My younger sister used to have a teddy bear named "Bim-Bim" She thought the song "Taking Care of Business" was "Taking Care of Bim-Bim" My parents played along so well, that I believed (I was 8-10 at the time) that BTO had really written a song about my little sister's teddy bear.

I used to think that the song went "Why does it always rain on me, is it because I live in a submarine". I thought the submarine had wholes in it, i didn't know it was "..is it because I lied when i was 17". I could hardly belive it when I found out about a year ago!

I was 12 or so and heard the lyric "Wild Thing--you make my heart sing" as "Waltzing--you make my heart sing". My wife thought "Radar Love" was "Red-eyed Love", and her sister thought "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves" was Gypsies, Tramps and Beads".
