I used to sing aloud to to R.E.M.'s song Chorus and the Ring with with the line "that's when the insoles start to stink" - believing that's what it really was. Turns out on a lyrics site it is really "that's when the insults start to sting." At least the insoles don't stink!

I used to think the lyrics to Little Miss can't be wrong by the Spin Doctors was Little Bitch, Little Bitch, Little Bitch can't be wrong. Hey, it still makes sense.

One day, a friend of mine and I were listening to All-American Rejects, and "Swing, Swing" came on. We both started sing, but instaed of singing "Swing swing swing from the tangles of my heart..." My friend was singing "Swing swing swing from the TABLE of my heart.." When I pointed this out to her, she told me that she could never figure out why the song made no sense.

Picture the scene.
Jimi Hendrix, the Woodstock crowd roaring in approval as he screams "Excuse me while I kiss THIS GUY!"
Never going to happen, was it?

The song "I got my mind set on you" by George Harrison...i thought he would say, "i got my mind sled for you" thinking that is song was about a sled for years and years and then one day in my late teens i asked my mom what my favourite song was? she couldn't remember but i knew that it was about a sled so i kept telling her that it was about a sled and that she has to remember because i used to sing and dance to it when i was much younger

I used to believe that when the group TLC was singing their song "Don't go chasing Waterfalls" they were singing "Don't go Jason Waterfalls"

I thought that at the end of the Ben Folds song "Army" he was saying "thought about your mommy" when he's really saying "thought about the army"

The 4 Non-Blondes song "What's Up" contains a lyric that says "I pray every single day." As a teenager I sang from the bottom of my lungs "I pray to St. Cote." Don't know who that particular Saint is, but the lyrics still sound like that to me.

Another misheard lyric: I was sure the Beach Boys were singing "Help Me Rhonda, yeah...get her outta my car", and I imagined that there was a girl who was sick or drunk in his car.

"Get her outta my heart" is correct, but less fun.

i used to think in michael jackson's billie jean he said "the chair is not my son" instead of "the child is not my son". i asked my mom when i was about 7 why he would state the obvious like that, because obviously a chair couldn't be a son. i also thought he couldn't really have a son because he was michael jackson. too bad i was wrong.

In the Prince song, Sign 'O' The Times, during the part where he sings 'At home there are seventeen-year-old boys
And their idea of fun', I was concvinced he was actually saying, 'At home there are 17 or so boys, and they are all deformed'

Also, in the Janet Jackson song 'Escapade', listening to it when i was perhaps 6 or 7 and was completely oblivious to the existance of such a word, I would happily sing along 'Nes-Ca-Fe, we'll have a good time, Nes-Ca-Fe, leave your worries behind'

In the song, "passionate kisses" I thought it was 'Ashley and Kristen love me.' It made sence when I was about 5 because I had two friends named Ashley and Kristen.

When she was about eight, my sister came into the living room one day and asked my mom "What's a skeregin' word?" Mom was bewildered and asked her what she meant. My sister sang "You know- Where seldom is heard a skeregin word, and the skies are not cloudy all day." It was "Home on the Range" The word was "Discouraging" LOLOL

In the song "Wherewolves of London" I thought he was singing "Where is the Thunder?" I could never figure out why he didn't know where thunder came from.

my name is Angie, and I therefore really liked the song Angie by the Rolling Stones. when the song first came out I was around 10 years old. I used to believe the line that says "ain't no woman ever gonna come close to you..." meant that no woman was ever going to get physically close to her!

well a year or so ago christina aguilera brought out a song called fighter i knew that was the title but it really sounds like she says"thanks for making me wider" instead of thanks for making me a fighter-it just sounds too convincing.....

I thought the song, "Drop It Like It's Hot" by Snoop Dog said, "Drop it like a saw, drop it like a saw..." as opposed to drop it like it's hot. I was convinced he liked to kill people by dropping flaming saws on them. I'm not sure why.
