i used to think the Aerosmith song "Dude Looks Like A Lady" was "Do the Slacky Lady"

Pokey

for the longest time i thought that the song "lady in red" was "baby and bread".....i was embarrassed when i was singing it and my mother told me the real words! she still teases me about it.

A friend of mine was singing the song by Gabrielle from the Bridget Jones film, except she was merrily singing away 'Valerieeeee' instead of 'Out of reach', i don't know if she thought that was what Bridget liked to be called at the weekend.

I always thought that the words to the song yellow taxi were "they paved paradise, and put up a fucking lot" I was really puzzled when I heard this on the radio and it wasn't censored, until I realized the actually words

My roommate and I though the chorus of Beck's song "Loser" was "So, open the door..." when the correct line was "Soy un perdedor" hehe!

The Patient

i cant remember the name of the song but the actual lyrics are 'and watch the sun come up on the santa monica boulevard' (i think) and for years i thought it was 'and watch the sun come up in santa clauses couple of bars'

R.E.M.'s Its the End of the World As We Know It went
"A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies"
But I heard it, until a few days ago as
"A turn of mints, a turn of mints, a turn of mints applies"

A turn of Mints

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"

Heres our versions of some Bee Gees songs
1) More than a woman -Bald headed woman
2)Night Fever-nice beaver
and the line in Staying Alive, where they sing 'its alright, its okay.....
we sang 'Its alright, its okay, you make love the other way'

But my friend had us laughing when she misheard the lyrics to the spice girls '2 become 1' the bit that goes 'I had a little love, now I'm back for more' she sings ' I had a little dove, now he's splattered on the floor' mad or what?

The first time I heard Jammin, by Marley, I was in a very fast car with the windows down. And I since I didn't know the name of the song, I thought that he was saying Vagina, when in fact he was saying Jammin'.

I hope you like vagina too.

i've been friends with my friend since we were both in diapers. her mom would always listen to music in the car. there was this one song, i dunno who its by, but it goes "goin to the chapel and we're gonna get married". for the longest time, i thought the lyrics went "goin to the checkbook and we're gonna get buried". it wasnt until i went to a wedding reception when i was 13 that my cousin corrected me.

Buried with the checkbook..

when i was a kid in the 80's i thought it was hush hush, keep it down now, don't tell gary. instead of keep it down now voices carry. and even watching the video i would think, that gary is such a jerk. aahhh i hate that gary. i didn't realize it until maybe 4-5 years ago. go figure?

When I was little my sister was singing the Macy Gray song that goes "I try to say goodbye an i choke, i try to walk away and i stumble". But only since a year ago i had always sung,"I try to walk away and i flamboke!!!" Dont ask me why!?!?!

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

I used to think that the lyrics for AC/DC's "Dirty deeds done dirt cheap" were "Dirty deeds in the Dunder Jeep." I thought the "dunder jeep" was a cross between a jeep and a dune buggy, and pictured these people driving around in it committing crimes. I don't think I realized the proper lyrics until I was almost 20.
