misheard lyrics

The song "Living Off the Wall": where he sings "just enjoy yourself", I used to think it was "just control yourself".

Laurie

I used to think that "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" went: "Wake Me Up Before It's Over"

Wrong lyrics to a song played on radio when i was ten..

Song: "I Go Weak" by Alison Moyet.

Real lyrics: "I go weak, I go weak, weak in the presence of beauty."

Mis heard as:

"I go a wee, I go a wee, wee in the presence of beauty..."

Emma

My friend used to think the song criticize said 'Don't criticize my eye brows'
She was really embarrassed when her mum told me this, I actually think her lyrics is better than the real song!!

Singing at the top of my lungs (off key & voice cracking) into my boyfriend's ear.to a fave song by Queen: I sang

'Beelzebub has a cupboard put aside for me'

When he recovered from his attack of hysteria, he told me the real words. which are:

Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me...

Thing is tho, I still sing this version.

My boyfriend told me when he was younger, he was listening to "Lucy in the sky with diamonds" with another child. The line that says "the girl with kaleidoscope eyes" played, and my boyfriend sang it right but his playmate said "The girl with colitis goes by." I laughed for an hour or so.

I used to think that the line, "She takes just like a woman" in Bob Dylan's 'Just Like A Woman' was, "She tastes just like a woman."

Needless to say I was appalled at the fact that one of my favorite singers had a taste for human flesh.

When I was younger my favorite song was ACDC's Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap because I thought it said Dirty Deeds, thunder jeep.

A boy who likes cars

The song sk8er boi by Avril Lavigne used to be one of my favorites. Except there was this one line where I heard:
"Sorry girl but you missed out
What the f*** that boy's mine now"
And actually, it goes:
"Sorry girl but you missed out
Well, tough luck that boy's mine now"
oops.

I used to think Michael Jackson's song 'Liberian Girl' was 'Librarian Girl'. I quite liked Michael Jackson's admiring of the quieter woman.
The lyrics later on in the song seemed to fit in with my belief as when it says 'Naku Penda Piya - Naku Taka Piya- MPENSIWE', I thought it was 'Naku Penda Piya - Naku Taka Piya - MY PEN'S AWARE . (Librarians use pens alot)

I used to believe Row Row Row Your Boat was 'Row row row your boat gently down the stream. Merrily merrily merrily merrily life is butter dream.' Then I realized I was completely wrong a few year ago.

Before I found any lyrics site giving the lyrics for Lady Gaga's song "So Happy I Could Die", I thought she was singing "So happy I could die. I'm A Samurai." On finding the real lyrics from a site, I found she is only saying "So happy I could die and it's alright." That is way "lame" compared to what I first thought I heard. Possibly I've never visualized anything else so wildly ludicrous as Lady Gaga posing as a Samurai!

Karen

I thought Micheal Jackson said "Annie do you want cake, Annie do you want cake, do you want cake Annie."

And "Rapper's Delight" by Sugar Hill Gang, I thought he said " I got a color TV, so I can see, some niggas play basketball"

Beatles - Penny Lane
Actual lyrics:
Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes.
There beneath the blue suburban skies, I sit up, meanwhile back

My lyrics:
And Elaine is in my ears and in my eyes.
Troll beneath the blue suburban skies, I sit up, three wild ducks.

I used to believe that swing low sweet chariot was talking about some guy named Jerry-O. I may have read the word chariot but never heard it. Also, I thought "Jordan" referred to my mother's maiden name, not knowing of the river.

jerry o'jordan?

I always thought the lyrics in I'm Blue were "I could beat up a guy"

Trisha Gaurav

that line in the sound of music was "tea: a drink with jan and fred." i watched that movie a million times and couldn't never figure out who jan and fred were!

silly boy

When I was a kid, Bread came out with a song called "Make it with You". I first heard it when they appeared on the Andy Williams Show. Andy introduced them and said they would sing their new song, which I heard as "Naked with You".

I was horrified, sitting on the floor in the family room with Mom and Dad, hearing this group sing "I want to naked with you. I really think that we could naked, girl."

Didn't quite understand what it meant, but I knew it was something I shouldn't do with a girl.
