Nirvana- Smells Like Teen Spirit
My friend thought that instead of
"here we are now, entertain us"
that it was, "here we are now, eat potatoes"!
i guess it is pretty hard to understand Curt. Wierd Al makes fun of the song and not being able to understand what hes saying, so watch it if you haven't already.
I used to think the song our lips are sealed said 'i saw the seal'
My fiancé's brother thought Moby's "Lift Me Up" had a gay pride theme because instead of hearing "Lift me up, lift me up..." he heard "lesbian, lesbian". Now I hear that every time I listen to the song
my darling little sister used to think that "You are my sunshine" contained the following: "You are a clementine, clementine... grandpa!"
The Nickel Creek song, "Spit On A Stranger", says "I could spit on a stranger, pull me out." (I don't get it, really.) Instead, when I was younger I reckoned it went, "I could shit on a stranger, oh meow."
This is really dumb, but you know the AC/DC song 'Dirty deeds done dirt cheap' or whatever it was? Well I thought for about 5 years that it was 'Dirty deeds and the done for cheese' I was messed up. ;)
My younger brother used to think that song by the blue man group, instead of "I'm blue, babadi abadi..." went, "Oh, I'm a bee. I'm a guy. "I'm a bee. I'm a guy." etc. It was hilarious he never could figure out why we would laugh like maniacs when he sang along.
I used to believe that the Chumbawumba song 'Amnesia' said "Do you soccer punch long-term memory loss?" when it was actually "Do you suffer from long-term memory loss?" My father heard me sing it once and laughed so hard he cried... and still wouldn't tell me the correct lyrics.
top belief!
my brother, now 27, asked my mom one time why Madonna was singing about "living in a cereal bowl." The song was actuall "Material Girl"
I used to believe that the lyrics to Bon Jovi's "You Give Love a Bad Name" were "You give love a Band-Aid".
When my brother was younger, he thought the chorus to billy ray cyrus' 'Burn down the trailer park' was 'burn down the tranamar' .. we never did have the heart to correct him, to this day im preetty sure he still sings it like that.
Annie has a monkey, has a monkey, Annie ... ok so english was my 3rd language at the time & Micheal was all over with Bubbles so ... It made sense that he mad a song about a girl Annie & her monkey ...one of those cartoon steeling monkeys, who's owner play's the accordeon while he takes wallets from an unsuspecting crowd...u know what i'm talking about ??
When i was in elementary school we always had to sing O Canada in the beginning of the day.the last line is 'we stand on guard for thee'. for some strange reason i thought it was 'we stand on one foot eeeee' so at the end i would always stand on on foot.
My sister and I can't be serious about song lyrics and our latest..."Slip me the beef boys and free my soul, come on and get lost in my little whole and drift away"
I've heard it that way so many time I can't hear it right anymore. Demented....umm...I'd say its a possiblity
Okay, I have two misheard lyrics. I just realized I was singing them wrong only a few months ago. XD Okay, the first one is:
In the song "Lying From You" the lyrics go:
"I'd rather be all alone"
I heard: "I'd rather bake all alone". XD
Okay, the second one is in the song "Hit The Floor"
The real lyrics are "Making your heart stop"
I thought it was: "Thinkin' your hot stuff" XD I guess it makes sense.
I used to think that the Tori Amos song "Professional Widow" with the lyrics "Come close to my lips, it's gotta be big" was "Come close to my lips, salivate"
self explanitory
"Im blue if I were green I would die, if I were green I would die"
instead of
"im blue dabadee dabadi"
I used to think that the title of Barry Manilow's song "Looks Like We Made It" was "Looks Like Tomatoes".
top belief!
When I was a kid, I used to think that the lyrics for Kenny Rogers' "Lucille" were, "You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, 400 children and a rotten Big Wheel," instead of, "You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, 4 hungry children and a crop in the field." I really used to think what could be worse than having to take care of 400 hundred children by yourself with only 1 crappy Big Wheel? Honestly, Kenny's woes pale in comparison.
You know the song- By the Light of the Silvery Moon?
When I was little I thought the words were:
By the light,
Of the celery moon
I like to spoon
with my honey and prune love stew!
