When I was about 6 years old, I believed the start of "Oh Canada" was: "Oh Canada, our home and naked land ... "

I couldn't figure out what not wearing clothes had to do with Canada.

When I was little I used to sing that the sun dried "a ball of rain" instead of "up all the rain." duh

I used to think Toto's Africa contained the line "I spent my life trying to get away from you," (rather than "it'd take a lot to take me away from you.") What makes it more entertaining is that the follow-up line is "it's something that a hundred men or more could never do," thus leaving me with the image of a woman with a hundred or so people just stuck to her like a magnet.

For the longest time (through college even) I thought the last lyrics of the Golden Girls was "And the cardiacs would say, 'Thank you for being a friend'".
Made sence to me, as it was a show about older women. My brother has since informed me of it being "card attached". Makes more sense now.

For the song 'Steve McQueen' my sister thought the chorus was,

'It's like Steve McQueen, streakin' on your radar screen!'

My sister has a sick mind...

When I was little, I used to think that in Bob Dylan was singing, "Hey Mr. Tangerine man, play a song for me," instead of, "Hey Mr. Tambourine man...." Now whenever I hear that song, I visualize a tangerine playing tambourines.

there used to be a song that got a ton of radio airplay. i could have bet you a million bucks that it said "don't make me yodel" . it was by sinead oconner and it actually said "don't make me over". i couldnt understand why she didn't want to yodel. i even tried to yodel to see if it was painful or if something bad who happen to me afterward.

My brother used to think the line, "I'll never be your beast of burden" in the Rolling Stone's song "Beast of Burden" was sung:
"I'll never be a pizza burnin'...."

In Shania Twains "That dont impress me much" the line where she sings

"I cant believe you kiss your car at night"

used to sound like:

"I cant believe you kiss your COCK at night"

I only found this not to be true by watching the video on daytime TV and being baffled at the fact that it hadnt been censored. Nice thought though eh??

I couldn't believe it when my brother actually sang "I'm shaving off my muff for you" instead of the real words "saving all my love for you" by Whitney Houston.

When I was a kid, I used to think that the lyrics for Kenny Rogers' "Lucille" were, "You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, 400 children and a rotten Big Wheel," instead of, "You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, 4 hungry children and a crop in the field." I really used to think what could be worse than having to take care of 400 hundred children by yourself with only 1 crappy Big Wheel? Honestly, Kenny's woes pale in comparison.

When I was 4 or 5, my little brother was singing Deck the Halls (with the correct words), and I promptly corrected him: "No, it's 'strike the harp and join the FOREST!'"

The song "Chasing Pavements" by Adele goes like this:

"Should I give up, or should I just keep chasing pavements?"

For the longest time, I thought it went like this:

"Should I give up, or should I just keep chasing penguins?"

I love that song Gloria by Van Morrison - Instead of singing "Gloria, G.L.O.R.I.A." I used to think it was "Gloria, the yellow warrior"...

I used to believe the the words to the country song "Cheap wine and a three day growth" were in fact, "Cheap wine and a three legged goat" up until about 6 months ago. I am 24.

The mother of my ex-girlfriend used to think the Bee Gee's song "More Than A Woman", was "Bald Headed Woman". She also thought John Mellencamp's "The Authority Song" said "I'm fightin' Dorothy and Dorothy always wins". First time I heard it was one of the biggest laughs I've ever had.
