In the song 'fear of the dark' (Iron Maiden) I used to think it was 'fear of the duck'. Couldn't quite figure why everyone was so afraid of that duck...
The theme song of Grease, instead of your the one that i want, i thought it sounded like 'your the wobbley dog'
I thought she'd find that a bit insulting, i would.
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.
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.
I used to think that the chorus from the song "Stop In the Name of Love" was "Stop! in the neighborhood... before I break your heart" I was singing it at the top of my lungs one day and didn't understand why my brothers were laughing hysterically at me.. they explained of course and then laughed at me some more. Ah well.
You know the song 'All Star' by Smash Mouth? Well, the lyrics go, "She was lookin' kinda dumb with her finger and her thumb in the shape of an 'L' on her forehead" but my friend thought they went, "She was looking kinda dumb with her finger in her thumb and the shape of an elf on her forehead"
When she was little, my mom thought that "Winter Wonderland" was actually "Winter Underwear." Too bad nobody told her differently BEFORE she sang it in front of the entire church.
While listening to AC/DC's "You Shook Me All Night Long", I usually hear...
"She was a fast machine, she kept her boner clean, she was the best half woman that I ever seen.."
As opposed to...
"She was a fast machine, she kept her motor clean, she was the best damn woman that I ever seen"
And Skid Row's "I Remember You"...
"Cause you'll always be my dream come true, Woman or man, I love you."
Instead of...
"Cause you'll always be my dream come true, Oh my darling, I love you"
Kinda a recurring theme.
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...
I was in the car with my dad and the song "Move Along" from All American Regects came on. My dad was loving it and starting singing along. "MOW THE LAWN, MOW THE LAWN LIKE I KNEW YA WOULD!"
Instead of "MOVE ALONG MOVE ALONG"
As an elementary school child I believed that in "Winter Wonder Land" they perspired instead of conspired by the fire.
i knew someone who believed for ages that the words to Madonna's 'like a Virgin' were actually 'like a fir-tree' ;-)
At first, I was convinced that Tina Turner was singing about paint...
"What's love but a second hand emulsion?"
When I first heard Bruce Springsteen's song, "Born in the USA," I thought that the song was "Porn in the USA"
I really did believe Elton john was singing 'someone shaved my wife tonight' and was mortified years later to find it was actually 'someone saved my life tonight'
For the longest time as a child, my father thought Trooper's "Raise a Little Hell" was actually "Raise a Little Elf", having first heard it around Christmas... It was only when he asked why Christmas songs were being played out of season that he learned the truth.
I used to think a lyric to the oldy but goody "Twisting the Night Away" by Sam Cooke was "He's dancing with the chicken slacks." The real lyric is "He's dancing with the Chick In Slacks." For the longest time, I wondered what the heck chicken slacks were!
i thought the beatles song Lucy in the skies with diamonds was about the peanuts (charlie brown) cartoons. i heard "Lucy in Disguise with Linus." i thought the seahorse people and colidiscope eyes were her disguise
I thought the line in Need You Tonight by INXS was "Oh, we'll boycott a snowman" as opposed to "All we've got is this moment." I first heard it at a wedding when I was 7 and had all the other kids there singing "Let's boycott a snowman!" Nobody could work out why.
I used to sing at the top of my voice "OLD GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN"
