I thought that, in Kelly Clarkson's "Behind These Hazel Eyes" where she goes, "You won't get to see the tears I cry" that she was saying "Dude, why can't you see the tears I cry?"
Now keep in mind that I also thought that in "Dip It Low" by Christina Milian, that when she said "I'mma show you how to make your man say...OH!" That she said, "I'mma show you how to make it medicine...OH!"
I needed my ears cleaned. x]

When I was little I belived a song called, "That's why they call it the Blues," was, "That's why they call it Baboons." I mean come on the lyrics are, "Laughing like children (They make laughing like noises)
Living like lovers (I thought they were cute and loving)
Rolling like thunder under the covers (Like them banging on thier chests)"

I have as much trouble as anyone discerning what they're singing in most songs, but when I heard the Rolling Stones singing, "I'll never be your beast of burden" that's actually what I thought they were singing, I just couldn't believe it. I thought, "They're certainly not singing about a 'beast of burden'." It must be something else, I figured, but for once I was right!

I used to believe (for a very short time) that Raine from Our Lady Peace sang

"...I can't see in, but you're stuck in my bag pipe"

And not

"...I can't see him, but he's stalking my thoughts"

Which are the correct lyrics from the song “The Birdman”

When I used to listen to Marit Larsen before, I thought she were singing 'Don't save me, I'll save you this ass-hole'
When she actually where singing 'Don't save me, I'll save you the hassle' .. ehh xD

My name?

I used mess up almost all nurser rhymes, Like. Mary Had A Little Lamb. I used to think her fleas were white as snow.

In the song 'all star' the one line that is "she was lookin' kinda dumb with her finger and her thumb in the shape of an L on her forehead" i thought it was "in the shape of an elk on her forehead" and for 4 years every time i head that song i thought to myself, how do you make an elk using two fingers? finally i asked my dad how, and he laughed at me.

the song that goes "poppin' my collar" i started singing it and when it got to that line in the song my friend started singing it and when she was singing it i heard her say "pop in my condom"

I was sitting at the bus one day, thinking about this site actually, and how I never really misheard lyrics. Then "Don't stop 'til you get enough " By Michael(The infamous) Jackson came on my cell-phone radio. I was happily singing along until it occurred to me that the lyrics to that probably wasn't:

"Keep on at the postoffice
Don't stop 'til you get enough"

I've since looked them up and it's:

"Keep On With The Force Don't Stop
Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough"

It's too bad. That would have been a great anthem for all the disgruntled postal workers out there.

I always thought the song 'goin to the chapel and we're gonna get married...' was

'WE'RE GOIN TO STAPLES AND WE'RE GONNA GET HAIRY!!!'

When my sister and I were younger we loved the song Mellow Yellow by Donavan.I think initially we liked it because we thought he was singing about the soda. After we heard it a few times though we thought the guy was really cool for a couple of reasons
1)There was this sidekick guy that agreed with everything he said by saying Quite right slick.
and
2)This girl named Saffron seemed to really dig him which we decided was because at some point in the song he self proclaimed that he had a big fat banana.
Funny though as an adult I can't ever hear the part of the song where he says.
I have a big fat banana.
But I swear it was there when I was younger followed by his sidekick saying:
Quite right slick.

I used to think that the lyrics in Tim McGraw's song Only On Days That End In Y was actually "Only On Days With Indian Wine".

My sister and I used to watch the Bugs Bunny cartoons on Saturday mornings. There's the one where Bugs is singing Jimmy Cracked Corn. We thought he was singing Jimmy Crapped Corn,which made total sense to us. We found out later in school what the real words were, it still made more sense to us that Jimmy would be crapping corn instead of cracking it and we grew up on a farm. It's a lot more comical to. I still sing the song that way.

I used to do some babysitting when I was in my teens and I always listened to music with the kids when I was at their house. I became a big fan of the Beatles and brought some of their music to the house of a five year old girl one night. The next time I came to her home she asked me if she could hear the chicken to ride song. It took me a minute but I figured out that she thought the song Ticket to Ride was saying she's got a chicken to ride. And I guess she don't care.

Anyone remember the kids show Carmen San Diego? The song at the opening says "Where in the world is Carmen San Diego?" I babysat a 4 year old that watched the show and one day I heard him singing the song except he was singing "Where in the hell is Carmen San Diego?"

When I was younger my Uncle would play music for me. I use to love the Pilot song Magic. I did not know until just recent that the real lyrics were" It's Magic,you know. Never believe its not so" I thought they were singing "Leave It to Beaver,Fatso".
