I used to believe that the song that goes "I am your lady you are my man" went "I am your latest you are my last".
I always thought it was cool that she would love him forever knowing already he would sooner or later find someone new.
I used to believe that the Diana Ross(?) song 'my simple heart' was bicycle hop. I thought it must be a sort of dance.
An ex-boyfriend tried to convince me that the song "Who are you", by The Who was actually about New Orleans, so the refrain was "New Orleans, new-new, new-new" I, for once, actually knew the correct lyrics and he looked like the dope.
My friend used to think that the line in Alanis Morrisette's "ironic" said "it's like a death-row hard-on, two minutes too late". When told her it was actually "death-row pardon" the line made a lot more sense, but now I can't think of that line any other way
I have always had a problem with hearing lyrics incorrectly. I was convinced that Janet Jackson's "escapade" was about the Ice-capades
I believed for years that the Rolling Stones were singing, "I didn't mean to leave your pizza burning'" instead of "Beast of Burden."
My daughter was singing(i've got friends in low places by:garth brooks) she was singing the part when he says and ruined your black tie affair.she used to say ruined your flat tire.
My good friend use to sing "Hit me with your fist Chuck". The words were actually: "Hit me with your best shot".
I can't listen to that song without thinking of him.
There is a Rolling Stone song that has the words'never be your beast of burden' and my young daughter would always sing this song, except her words were,"never leave your pizza burning"
Hot Chocolate you sexy thing
I thought they said
" I believe in Malcom "
to this day i can't understand why diana ross (in chain reaction) sings "tell eddie wearing there is no salvation"...what has he done wrong?
and as a child i used to think a microphone was actually called a 'songma' and why would someone want to have damaged eartha kitts? "look what theyve done to my song ma"
I used to think the lyrics to the Pink Floyd song were "We don't need no Dukes of Hazzard" instead of "We don't need no dark sarcasm" I think it was because my mother wouldn't let me watch the show.
Our brother Robret used to sing 'whats new push and catch' to Tom Jones' Whats new Pussycat.
When I was young, I though the David Bowie song "Suffragette CIty" went, "Awww, wham, bam, bacon ham!" My mom never tried to correct me.
I never could figure out the significance of why the "dogs say godnight" in L. Armstrongs song "What a Wonderful World." Of course finding out the words are actually "dark sacred night" helped my understanding immeasurably.
top belief!
Rememer the cheesy 'Superman' song that was around in the late 80's? (Comb your hair, brush your teeth, now FLY! etc) Well I taught all my friends the dance with all the actions. Only I thought that 'Hitch a ride' was actually 'Hit your eyes' so I had all these kids at the school disco hitting themselves, and nobody knew why.
Often subjected to Kenny Rogers' 'You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille', I thought the line was:
with four hundred children and a crop in the field (instead of 'with four hungry children' etc)! I thought Lucille was pretty mean too!
I used to think the song "Blow,blow Seminole wind" was "blow,blow seven old men"(I didn't understand oral sex then).Also I used to HATE listening to Happy Birthday when I was little,so all the pictures of my childhood birthdays portray me with my hands over my ears.
There was a song on the radio that was a theme for a news show that went "Oh little darling...Sylvia." I thought it was "Oh little darling...Cereal."
My sister likes to listen to Lionel Ritchie music and , well, the song,"Dancing on the cieling" I thought he was singing,"Oh what a feeling,when she's dancing on my penis"
