When the song "He Loves U Not" by Dream came out, I thought the line "you can flurt your pretty eyes" was "you can clutch your pretty eyes."

HAVE I THE RIGHT By The Honeycombs - 1964

I used to think that the line 'Come right back I just can't bear it I've got a love and i want to share it' was Come right back i just can't bare it I got a loan from a holy sherriff" Very sad.

That 'army' marching song that goes "Wherever we go (wherever we go), People always ask us (People always ask us), Where do you come from? (Where do you come from?)" etc. Well we used to sing it at Brownies and for ages I thought it was "Wherever we go, we think of all disasters". I thought it was about being contemplative about people who'd been affected by wars and things.
My Brownie leader overheard me, cracked up laughing and told everyone, making me look like a fool. I've never really got over it. She shouldn't have been allowed to be a leader....

... "we are living in mama's cereal world.. and I am mama's cereal girl".... sounded good to me. I loved cereal.

When my big sister kindly pointed out to me that it was "material girl"... I thought she was one of those ladies at the fabric counter measuring out yards of material... I didn't like that as much.

Also, my little sister LOVED the movie Grease, she was the movie's biggest fan... her favorite song was..."you're the thinga-ma-bob!" (instead of you're the one that I want")

My across the street neighbor (who was about 7 at the time) swore up and down that the words to Travis Tritt's song "T-R-O-U-B-L-E" went "I spilled tea all over you and me"... you couldn't convince her otherwise.

She also thought that song "Mi Vida Loca" by Pam Tillis went "...I take corners onto hills" instead of "I take corners on two wheels" (a little geographically challenged I think) and "it's a never ending circus ride, we know farts need not apply"... instead of "faint of heart need not apply". I suggested she just turn off the radio and never listen again.

My uncle was 100% convinced that "Do the hustle" was actually "eat a hot dog!"... he would walk through my grandma's house disco dancing and belting it out.

top belief!

As a kid growing up in the 80s and 90s, I loved Madonna.

Only, her songs sometimes confused me.

Vogue, for instance was puzzling.

I really couldn't fathom why she was singing about gum disease. ("Gingivitus, dance on air... ") Turns out she was ACTUALLY singing about Ginger Rodgers. ("Ginger Rodgers, dance on air...") Hmmm... Good to know.

Incidentally, "dance on air" could have easily been legionnaire's. I briefly considered re-making the song into a song about different diseases. Thankfully, I didn't have that much spare time.

at 5, I thought the Eagles "Take it to the limit" was "Take it to the lemon"

Finally got my italian

I used to sing along with bohemian rhapsody by queen- "spare him his life from his monstrosity" was "spare him his life for his mum's new settee" and "beelezebub has a devil put aside for me" was "the owls that hoot had a neville in a side for me". i was scandalised that a mother would consider her new settee over the life of her son :s
