When I was younger, I always swore that the Marilyn Manson song "The Beautiful People" really said "the beautiful meatball."

I thought the lyrics to "We're going to Ibiza" by the Venga Boys was "We're going to eat pizza"

ShannonOfDoom

Pink Floyd- Brick Wall.

I used to believe it was "we don't need no fart control" in the second line there.

When we were little, my two sisters and I used to think that Kylie's "I should be so lucky", where it says "i should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky", said..."asto pistolaki(leave the hairdryer) Laki Laki Laki(greek male name)"......

silly greel girl

You know that song "That don't impress me..." by Shania Twain. I thought the line " I can't believe you kiss you car at night" was "I can't believe you kiss your carving knife" I'm not a phsyco...honest!

Gunther

My ex was convinced the line from David Bowie's "Suffrigette City" was "don't lean on me man 'cos you can't afford the chickens" (as opposed to "you can't afford the ticket")

Until I was about 18 I thought that the lyrics to Madonnas 'Erotic' were,

'Bill Oddie, Bill Oddie, put your hands all over my body.'

He was on childrens television a lot at the time.

In Middle Of The Road by The Pretenders, I knew I could never be as cool or as free as Chrissie Hynde because I could never see myself "standing in the middle of life with my pants behind me."

I only recently learned it was "standing in the middle of life with my pains behind me." To me it still sounds like "pants."

Pnut

"You know I'd like to keep my cheese androgynous."

The song was "No Rain", by Blind Melon, and the actual line is "I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today". Everyone in my circle heard the line differently. Who didn't?

that in the song : "How deep is your love" by the Bee Gees, they sang "and you come to me in a submarine". Why not?Love is sometimes so powerful.

PS : the original lyrics are :
"And you come to me on a summer breeze". Not bad either.

My brother believed that Michael Jackson's song 'Billy Jean' contained the words, 'Don't go around breaking young girls' arms'!! (It was supposed to be 'hearts'!)

Rachel

I used to think that the 80's song

" I wish that I had Jesse's girl"

was

"I wish that I was Jesse's girl"

and I was so confused as to why a boy would want to be Jesse's girl.

At the end of the song "another one bites the dust" there is a part where Freddie Mercury keeps repeating Another One bites the dust, then he says "I'm Adopted". I thought, How cool, so am I! Never understood what it had to do with a shootout though. I always suspected that wasn't what he was saying, but until now, I never knew he was actually saying "Bites the dust-ah" putting a little more emphasis on the end of the word.
I think it was a secret message to his birth parents though.

I'm adopted

The lyrics "I believe in miracles" I thought were "I believe in Milko". I couldn't understand why a man would be singing about his milkman especially when in the next line he talks about him being a sexy thing. I know my milkman was not anything to sing about.

Wendy

I used to hear the lyrics to Culture Club's Karma Chameleon as "Become-a come-a come-a come-a come-a comedian..." Oh well...

When I was in the 8th grade, there was a
fairly popular girl in school who thought that
George Harrison's song "I've got my mind set
on you" was actually "Wake up I might sit on
you" yeah, she was blonde...(no offense to
the intelligent towheads!)

PixieGoth

As an elementary school child I believed that in "Winter Wonder Land" they perspired instead of conspired by the fire.

I used to hear "Everytime you go away, you take a piece of Meat with you"
Makes a nice light snack I spose.

Linda

"We built this city" by Starship. All younger members in our family were upset to find out that the lyrics actually went 'we built this city on rock and roll' and not 'we built this city on sausage rolls' as we had thought.

I still hear in the Kate Bush song 'Strange Phenomenon' the words "they made me regurgitate cheese food" for the actual lyrics "they made me read Gurdjieff and Jesus"
