Don Henley sings "After the boys of summer have gone". I used to think it was "After the poisoned summer had gone".
Anyone remeber the song Convoy? I thought for a long while that roll your truckin' convoy was roll your *uckin' convoy
For ages, I thought the line in 'Free Nelson Mandela' that goes:
'His body abused, but his mind is free'
Was actually...
'His body abused by these mindless freaks.'
My friends and I used to think that in Girls Aloud's song "Biology" instead of "if we party anymore, we'll start a fire of pure desire" it said "if we party anymore, we'll start a fight. I'll kill this guy"
We didn't understand why it was so violent...ha ha
I used to think that the lyrics to REM's Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight were:
Calling Cherly Baker
when it is actually:
Call me when you try to wake her up
in the song: Hey, don't stop the music
I thought it was saying: Hazel's got the music
My daughter teases me about it all the time. Ha ha!
my second mother (my friend mom)

When my brother and I were little, perhaps first grade, our favorite song was "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35". We were convinced that the line "everybody must get stoned" (and the entire chorus surrounding it) was about medieval times, and used to run around the house shouting those few lines ALL THE TIME. Our parents used to have us stand on top of the piano and sing it frequently when we had guests over, and we never understood why everyone found us so funny!
i had a roomate in college who believed that the midnight oil song where they said "how can we sleep when are beds are burning" they were saying "how can we dance with our ugly cousins"
I always thought that the lyrics of the Beatles song were ‘Ticket to Rye’ when I was young (Rye being a small town in England near where I live), up until when I was about 9 or 10 then I was told it was ‘Ride’, but I recently found out that it seems they were singing Rye after all.. I’m confused now lol
my neice (who is 9 at the present moment) used to love Britney Spears. Me and her mom used to ask her to sing her Fav Britney song and she always chose "OOPS I did it again". But instead of saying
"OOPs I did it again...I played with your heart...got LOST in the game..she said...
"OOPS! I doo dooed again...I played with your heart...Got LUCKED in the game
lmao we never bothered to correct her...it was way too funny!
I always thought that Rockstar by Miley Cyrus said "I could be so flat on your car" and it upset when I heard little kids singing the song!
top belief!
While singing the Australian Anthem in primary school, I was utterly convinced the first line (actually saying "Australian all let us rejoice") said "Australians all eat ostriches."
I found out otherwise when my teacher overheard my loud singing and pulled me aside to get me in trouble. I was very confused.
top belief!
When I was young,I thought the lyrics "Secret Agent man" were actually "Secret Asian Man".
In the song 'Don't leave me this way', Thelma Houston sings 'Baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you'. I used to think she sang 'Baby, my heart is revolving and to cipher you'.
Until about 10 years ago, whenever I heard the song, "On the Road Again" by Willie Nelson I thought the part that says "we're the best of friends" actually was saying "You're a Mexican". I always thought that was very rude and what did it matter anyway?
When I use to listen to the song 'Wings of Love', I used to think the line 'Only the two of us together flying high' was 'Only the two of us to give a flying eye'.
in somebody to love by queen i used to think the line "everybody wants to put me down they say i'm crazy" was everybody wants a crocodile they think i'm crazy!!!" whoops =P
In the song RIGHT HERE by ''SWV'' I used to think in the lyircs they were saying just ''RIGHT HERE-you can have it all'' ON THE CHORUS..THEY WERE ACTUALLY SAYING ''Right here, be right here, right here, BE RIGHT here, NO FEAR, have no fear, NO TEARS, love is here..
when i eas yound i thought the village people singing YMCA were yelling "GUM-MAC!"
acually it was "YOUNG-MAN!"
