misheard lyrics

There's this song by Avril Lavigne and i think it's called suddenly or how does it feel or something. The chorus was "How does it feel to be different from me, are we the same?" but i thought it went "How does it feel to be different from me, we weigh the same.

I used to think that in The Monkees' "Last Train to Clarksville" they actually sang, "Last train to cocksville". Ew...

Citizen of cocksville

Ok - please understand that i was young and this is in no way supposed to be hurtful. When i was younger and Anastasia's song "paid my dues" came out - i thought that it was called paid my Jews". I even had a huge arguement woth my dad about it.

I used to always think as a kid that the song "Blue Bayou" was really "Blue By You" and when that song came on the radio I would always try to find something blue near me.

A friend of mine misheard the Band Aid song "Do they know it's Christmas?" Real lyrics......."The greatest gift they'll get this year is LIFE". She heard it has, "the greatest gift they'll get this year is RICE!!"

Thanks in part to that Simpsons episode, I used to believe that the lyrics to the B*rry M*nilow song went: "Oh Mandy, you came and you gave me cold turkey".

Mmmm... cold turkey

When I was growing up my Dad was a huge fan of The Beach Boys, and their song Fun Fun Fun, I thought the chorus was "she'll have fun fun fun when the Daddy took the TEABAG away" it was only until a few years ago I found out that it was actually teabird, he took away. It took 20 years or so for me to realise that! Embarassing lol!

Cute Is What We Aim For song Curse Of Curves.

"we all have defects from vitamin D "
and when they sing it later in the song
"we all have defects from vitamin E "

The real words are " We all have teeth that can bite underneath " Listen to it. It sounds exactly like my version lol.

I'm 21, and my whole life, I always thought George Michael was singing "Wake me up before you go go". Last week my best friend enlightened me to the fact that he's saying "go, girl". Now, every time I leave, or hang up the phone, she says in a retarded voice, "Wait! Don't go go!" lmao.

Good Charlotte's song "Young and Hopeless"... I got made fun of MAJORLY for this one. I'm a die hard fan, and know every word of every song... but for some reason, for years now, I've always thought he was singing "Hot days make me hot, nights shade me". Makes sense, right? lol, the actual lyric is "Hard days made me, Hard nights shaped me", and when my friend told me THIS, I was even more confused... why would Joel sing about being "hard"? =( lmao. I didn't understand where the comma was supposed to go, so I thought it was "Hard days made me hard". Hmm.

I totally love The All-American Rejects, which is why I was a little heartbroken when I heard their song "Straightjacket feeling" for the first time, because instead of hearing their line of "Beg me time and time again" I heard "Bang me time and time again". I defy anyone to listen to that song and not hear "Bang". lol

When I was little, I used to think that Aerosmith song "Dude Looks Like a Lady" was actually saying "Do the Lucky Lady"... only, I was pretty young, so instead of even thinking anything sexual, I just pictured a dance called the Lucky Lady, and whenever people heard this song they were supposed to bust out with the "Lucky Lady"... lmao

In the 80's or late 90's their was a song sung by a pop/techno group that had a phrase that said "we're having big fun" my husband use to think it said "we're having meatballs"

I rember Eiffel 65 blue, me and mates used to think it went "i'm blue i believe i can die"
I remember a scholl disco with dance moves of pretending to slit our throats and then collapsing on the floor. So embarressing.

When Mariah Carey's "Be Mine Again" came out, I was quite the confused one...

The real lyrics go...

"It's irrelavent to dewel on the past... yeah, yeah babay... I'm accountable for what went bad... and I mean that..."

I heard something quite different that went like this...
..."It's irrelavent to dewel on the past... yeah, yeah babay... I'm a cannible for what went bad... (She said I'm accountable very fast.)

My cousin (7) heard what I heard and asked me if she was a cannible, and for some reason, she thinks the songtress is scary... don't know where THAT came from... after hearing that misheard bit, she must've had nightmares of her chaising her around with a chainsaw.

Mariah Wants your Brains...

AC/DCs song "dirty deeds done dirt cheep" i used to think it said "dirty deeks tongo jeep"... my mom says i used to shout it at the top of my lungs every time the song came on.

Jennifer S

in the song "Saw What You Want" by Texas, the line reads "I took the tables away from you." but i always always thought that the words were "i took my tampons, away from youuu"

When I first heard Beastie boys 'Intergalactic', I thought the part with vocoder that says 'another dimension' said
' I have an erection'. I can still hear it now even though I know what it says!

When I was young my Mom thought she would be cool and listen to some of my music. She used to beleive (and sing) that the Eurythmics song, "You Dropped a Bomb on Me"...was "You Dropped a Farm on Me".
