The Killers line "my affection comes and goes" - I always believed it was "my erection comes and goes".

Nice.

I used to think that "I'm blue da ba dee da ba di" was "I'm blue I will bleed I will die" I was a morbid child...

Tori

The first time I heard Brian Setzer's song "Jump Jivin' ", I thought "What the hell's he doing singing about drunk driving?"

John

I use to think Milli Vanilli's song "blame it on the rain" was "baby on the range". (haha that's two embarassing things in one!)

i thought that the "bandaid" xmas song said
"fever..... whooaaaaaa"
instead of "feed the world"

azcaz

in santana 'smooth'..the real lyrics are...
"Well that’s the same emotion that I get from you"
and i thought it said...
"well thats same ocean i get f**k you"
gosh it took me forever to figure out why that allowed them to say that on the radio and not bleep it out

My friends mum was convinced that the lyrics to Justin Timberlake's song 'Cry me a River" went "the jammy kids done, so I guess I'll be leaving"...
original lyrics : "the damage is done so i guess i'll be leaving"

I used to believe "Karma Chameleon" went "Come-a come-a come-a come-a come-a to me, Leon" lol

my friend used to thnk the lyrics to the corus of Blue (Da Be Dee) song by Eiffel 65 was "i'm blue, if i were green i would die, if i were green,i would die" only to find that the real lyrics were " im blue a da be dee a ba dee" it wasnt until we were singing to it together that i told her the words were just random word fragments!

My Borther used to sing the Theme song to the TV show Cops as, "Bad boys bad boys, funky cunsha du funky cunsha du when they come for you."

Funky Cunsha du

I'm probably not alone in this, but I thought it was "Ooh, baby, baby, it's a wide world." Didn't really give it a second thought until last year when I got the real song.

Luke

one of Journey's songs starts off "i shoulda been gone." when i was about 14 i heard it for the first time and i swore he said "shut up and go home." it was catchy i liked it

e.m.

I'm 21, and my whole life, I always thought George Michael was singing "Wake me up before you go go". Last week my best friend enlightened me to the fact that he's saying "go, girl". Now, every time I leave, or hang up the phone, she says in a retarded voice, "Wait! Don't go go!" lmao.

Mel

I used to think the lyrics to "Too Legit To Quit" were "Do the flip, do the tootsie flip"

cassie

I used to(and still do) mishear the lyrics in Eddie Cochran´s "Drive In Show" that in the original go like

"when we're parkin' in the drive-in show
we'll be sittin' in the moonlight row
i'll bet my peanuts to a candy bar
you'll be cuter than a movie star"

To me it was a story about a couple doing forbidden stuff in their car (you know, they´re "parkin") and the guy was quite clever doing a camouflage thing when I heard the words "i´ll wrap my penis to a candy bar" .
Shame on me. ;-)

Slim Tom

when i first heard tracy chapmans Fast Car song i thought she was saying " he's got a five inch cock"

I never knew the title to Prince's song "Raspberry Beret." So I used to believe the song went

she wore a red, spherical dress
the kind you find in a second hand store.

It was the eighties, and women used to wear lots of wierd designer dresses at the time. I figured they wore them once, threw them out, and this girl bought one that was round, like a fruit of the loom apple or something.

Part of the national anthem (UK) goes 'Send her victorious, happy and glorious'. I thought it said 'Send her Victoria, happy and Laura'. This made sense, seeing as at that time there were some twins called Laura and Victoria, so clearly the song was dedicated to them.

Katrina

i believed that michelle gayle's sweetness song contained the lyrics shade in sheep shit!

andrew

When I was a kid, I thought that the line in the song, "You're the One That I Want," from Grease went as follows:

"You're the one that I want, John Travolta, woo, hoo, hoo..."
