misheard lyrics

I used to think that Kim Carnes song, "Betty Davis' Eyes" was "She's Got Better Days Aside"...

the other day my boyfriend and his friend were in the car and we heard the Who's Eminence front and when it goes : Behind an eminence front
Eminence front - It's a put on. My boyfriend and his friend started singing : "from behind ram it in the butt." They both have always thought the words said that...now we sing it like that

I used to think Hot Chocolate's "I believe in miracles" was "I believe in Milkos"

In Evanescence's song "Taking Over Me" the real lyrics were "I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you."I could have sworn that the lyrics were "I lie away and try so hard not to finger you."It still sounds like that to me!!

So Embarassed

my friend belived for so long- and we fell out about it- that the lyrics to destinys child 'bug-a-boo' were
"break my kness so i can't move"
when it is in fact
"break my lease so i can move"
i will never let her forget that!!

I used to believe that the lyrics to
"jenny ive got your number, i've got to make you mine, Jenny dont change your number 867-5309" said
"daddy ive got your number, im gonna take you on, daddy dont change your number ....867-5309"

I have a good friend, a very high level executive in a international banking firm, that thought the lyrics to a song were "in a white room, with black cousins" when it's really "in a white room, with black CURTAINS!"

My nephew used to sing Mary Chapin-Carpenters' "Passionate Kisses" as "Ashes and Fishes"

And I thought Elton John, in Bennie and the Jets, was saying "She's got electric boobs, I know it's true". :p

back in the late 60's, my friend was singing along with Shelley Fabares' record "Johnny Angel", but she was seriously singing the words "Johnny's in jail, and I love him..."! We tried our best to convince her that's not how the song goes!

"Shaniquah"

wen my brother was little he used to always watch the movie grease. his favourite part was wen they sang the song grease lightening. the lyrics originaully go "go grease lightening im burning up a quart of mile. he thot it went go grese lightening a bunny in the court, oh my!!

I used to believe that the song jesse's girl said "I cannot find a women like that." Instead of " Where can i find a woman like that."

Jesse Tomchak

Ya know that song "Independent women" or something like that by Destinies Child well i always thought it was "the shoes on my feet i garted the clothes im wearing i farted the car im driving i farted cuz i dependent on it!" and for a long time i kept thinking why would you depend on your farts to get you stuff? but then again anyone who make a song called "bootylicious" probably would depend on farting to make them rich.

A mate of mine used to think that the Lyric from Jamiroquai's 'canned heat'
'ive got canned heat in my heels tonight baby'
was in fact:
'ive got candy in my ears tonight baby'
this was about 3 years agao and now he's a scientist. oh dear.

One day a friend of a friend came around to our house and said "I really love that song 'Wopupafarbu'.None of us knew which song she meant and we were so puzzled that we asked her to sing it to us. It transpired that she actually meant the old early house music song "Pump up the volume"

Sarah

My cousin thought, when she first heard "Part of Your World" in The Little Mermaid, that instead of 'bright young women, sick of swimmin'...' it was 'pregnant women, sick of swimmin'...' We make fun of her for it to this day. ;D

Crimson Butterfly of the Snow

I firmly used to believe that in the song "Voices carry", they were actually sining 'Mrs. Carrey', and I always wondered why Mrs Carrey got a song.
Later I thought that they said 'This is Gary', so I thought the song was about some person introducing her friend Gary.

cool cat

One of my friends STILL thinks, to this day, that the lyrics to the Eiffel 65 song "Blue" are, instead of "Im blue da ba dee da ba di etc..." are "I'm Blue if I was green I would die etc..." She still doesn't believe that she's wrong

Quite Concerned

Oh, this one is probably very common, but the song that goes, "Don't it make your brown eyes blue" Well, I heard, "Donuts make your brown eyes blue" Well, maybe if i ate more donuts, i'd have blue eyes!

Sara

in "another saturday night" by cat stevens. i heard "i got some money cause i just got paid" as "i got some money cause i just got laid"

When I first heard Aerosmith's "Just push play" I thought he said "I just turned gay" I was like, how did you just figure that out? lol
