misheard lyrics

From the Carpenters hit I always sang "calling octopus of interplanetary craft" instead of "occupants".

Paul

In the song "We're going to Ibiza", my friend thought they said "we're going to eat pizza"!

Smaranda

My parents used to be thoroughly amused by my somewhat postmodern rendition of popular nursery rhyme "Baa Baa Black Sheep" when I was 3. It went a little something like this...

"Baa baa sheep,
A - wool,
Essir, essir,
Full.
A master,
A dame,
Lane."

I have a friend who thought for years that the Bee Gees were singiing about a 'four legged woman' rather than 'more than a woman'

and my sister would always sing along to a paul young song, singing 'everytime you go away, you take a piece of meat with you' in stead of 'piece of me with you'.....

Shadrock

My youngest brother used to sing to Paul Youngs "Every time you go away" with the line "Every time you go away you take a piece of MEAT with you"

It's probably unfair to snitch on someone who's not here to defend himself, but someone I knew used to think Nirvana's "I'm a Negative Creep" was "I'm an egg in a tree". Oh for shame.

Henry

and then there was that Beatles song - "she's got a tick in her eye" instead of "she's got a ticket to ride"

not my belief, but my college roomate thought "Glorified Version of a Pellet Gun" was "all ten versions of a pelican"-always found that amusing.

When I was four years old, my favorite song in the world was "Girlfriend" by Paula Abdul. There's a part in that song where she yells to her back-up band (which was called "Deal"), "Hey Deal! SING!" My name is Daile, & whenever that song came on the radio, I always thought she was saying, "Hey, Daile! SING!" I was always so amused by the notion that Paula Abdul mentioned me in her song!

Daile

The Corrs: "leave me breathless" - "Come on, leave me, Bradley". (Just dump him, girlie!)

Eminem: "but today I'm cleaning out my closet" - "But today I'm coming out my closet" (How brave!)

The first few times I heard Lee Ann Womack singing, "I hope you daaaaaance," I thought she had said, "I hope your're deeeaaaad."

nevermind

I lived near the Illinois Central train in Chicago, which we called the IC. Every morning in school I sang, "My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of the IC."

Annie

In the beginning of "Wings" Band on the run, It sounded like: Stuck inside these four walls...."Circumcised" forever....

John

apparantly as a kid of around 5 years old, i used to sing "go and get stuffed" instead of "when the going get tough (the tough get going)"

thank you please

i am me

I used to think the lyrics to 'About a Girl' by Nirvana were 'I need a lizard friend' instead of 'I need an easy friend'. I know I'm not the only one because someone else said something to the same effect.

I used to sort of think that the words in this line of 'Sir Psycho Sexy' by the Red Hot Chili Peppers was 'I got stopped by a lady cop in my lunchable-b'. I was like, 'Why the hell is Anthony Kiedis driving bolonga?'

when watching Dirty Dancing I thugth the lyrics were: Hungry eyes. They got the flavour you cant disguise, ive got hungry eyes.

Julia

In "God Bless America" I thought it was "With the light from a bulb" instead of "from above."

Carol

In Alannis Morrisette's song "Ironic" instead of "An old man turned ninty-eight" I would sing "The Postman turned and he ate"

ande

I used to beleive that the song "Rock me Amadeus" actuallay sang as ooh ooh rock me hot potatoes...hot potatoes...hot potatoes...

Sister sledge - "We are family"....
Just let me staple the vicar (instead of just let me state for the record) we're giving love in a femidom (instaed of we;re giving love in a family dose).

Methinks not.
