In the song Dimples, by John Lee Hooker, the actual line (he sings it very gravelley and deep) is "You've got dimples in your jaw" ...even now however, I can still only hear what I mistakenly first thought it was..."You've got devils in your dog"... it just sounds like that OK!

In Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog", a friend told me that Robert Plant was singing "fish fillet woman ain't got no sole..."

My daughter was convinced that the classic Sweet single Blockbuster contained the line
"There's got to be a way to the Bus Stop?" At 7 this made more sense than asking how to Blockbuster.

that in the song : "How deep is your love" by the Bee Gees, they sang "and you come to me in a submarine". Why not?Love is sometimes so powerful.

PS : the original lyrics are :
"And you come to me on a summer breeze". Not bad either.

I always thought the hook in Kim Carnes' "Bette Davis Eyes" was "all the boys think she's a spaz" instead of "all the boys think she's a spy." D'oh!

Someone who thinks it's funnier the other way.

I used to believe the chorus of that song "Barbara Ann" (can't remember the artist)went: Bob bob bob, bob bob-a-ran. I wanted to know where Bob was running to.

I had a cousin who was convinced the first line of "you're the one that I want" [from Grease] was "I got you, them bolts are flying" [it's "I got chills, they're multiplying"] I didn't know what the words were and she was so adamant she was correct I believed her and could actually *hear* "I got you, them bolts are flying" every time I heard the song, until a friend wet herself laughing at me and told me what the words actually are.
I have another cousin who was running around yelling "Hey whatcha doin'" to a familiar tune, I asked what she was singing and she said "winter wonderland", the first line of which is, I corrected her [nicely!], "Sleighbells ring, are you listenin'".
I knew a guy who's nephew thought the Ghostbusters! theme was called "Jack the bastard", none of us could quite figure out why ...

I still believe that there's a line in Rock around the clock which goes,"when the clock strikes twelve we'll poo our pants" although it's supposed to be "when the clock strikes twelve we'll cool off then" -No simularity!

I thought the AC-DC song Dirty Deeds done dirt cheap was Dirty deeds thunder chief. It didn't make sense to me until my girlfriend asked me what the hell are you singing. It makes sense now

You know that song "That don't impress me..." by Shania Twain. I thought the line " I can't believe you kiss you car at night" was "I can't believe you kiss your carving knife" I'm not a phsyco...honest!
