misheard lyrics

My kindergarten teacher's name was Mrs. Boshultz. Around that time, "Bus stop" by the Jackson 5 was a big song. So of course I heard the song as "Get down, Mrs. Boshultz! Don't stop til you get enough!" My parents couldn't stop laughing at this one, and made sure to share this with Mrs. Boshultz at the parent teacher conference.

When I was about 4, "Lucille" by Kenny Rogers was popular. Instead of "four hungry children, crops in the field", I sang it as "four hundred children crapping in the field".

On the song Freestyler when it goes 'Yeah-straight from the top of my dome' I used to think it was 'Cheesestring at the top of my door' I wandered what it was on about!

I used to think Bruce Springsteins song, "I'm the Nothin man", was "I'm the muffin man"....who knew?

i thought that the "bandaid" xmas song said
"fever..... whooaaaaaa"
instead of "feed the world"

I knew someone who thought the lyrics to Eiffel 65's "Blue" - "I'm blue da ba dee da ba die" was "I'm blue - I'm in need of a guy."

When I was five years old, I sent adults into fits of laughter with my interpretation of "That Old Black Magic"--". . .that same old witch crap when your eyes meet mine . . ."

In The Smiths song "This Charming Man", when Morrisey sings,
"I would go out tonight
But I haven't got a stitch to wear
This man said "it's gruesome
That someone so handsome should care".
A jumped up pantry boy
Who never knew his place
He said "return the ring" "

I thought he sang,
"I would go out tonight but I haven't got a stitch to wait,
This man, he's gruesome, said someone so handsome should care.
A jumped up country boy
Who never knew his place
She said, return to me."

Well, Morrisey IS pretty darn difficult to understand, listen to this song and you'll understand!

A couple years ago my brother was singing the AC/DC song "Dirty Deeds" and instead of saying, dirty deeds and there done dirt cheap, he said, dirty deeds and the dunder jig.

I think we all thought this when we were little: I use to sing: (Madonna, Material Girl)

Living in a m'cheerio world
And I am a m'cheerio girl
You know that we are living in a m'cheerio world
And I am a m'cheerio girl

M'cheerio Girl

I use to think Milli Vanilli's song "blame it on the rain" was "baby on the range". (haha that's two embarassing things in one!)

When my friends were singing blue by Eiffel 65, i thought instead of "blue da ba dee da ba di" i thought they were singing "i'm blue i believe i can die!" I didn't find i was wrong til i was about 11 at a disco.

Until I was 12 I used to think the Australian national anthem ("Advance Australia Fair") was about Australia putting up the price of Australian airline tickets so New Zealanders couldn't afford them - "Advance Australia Fares".

When I was in High School a friend of mine was a big fan of Savage Garden. Amongst others, the Animal Song was one of her favourites. She used to sing "I want to live like cannon balls" instead of "I want to live like animals". And then "I want to run through the jungle with wind in my hair and the smell of my feet" instead of "I want to run through the jungle with wind in my hair and the sand at my feet". !!! I haven't seen her in years but always remember her with fondness when I hear this song.

My mom actually did this but in some song that goes "Takin' care of business, and working over time." she thought it said "Takin care of biscuits, and working over time"
