In the Spice Girls song, "Merry Christmas," where it says, "but I think I'll skip this one this year," I thought it said, "But I think you'll touch my buns this year!" I knew what than meant, too. God, I was a perverted kid...

To Sammi, I also used to get the lyrics to 'Hey Dude' wrong. I used to think it said
"Hey dude, well I do what I can
But you treat me like a woman
When I pee like a man".

It actually says

"Hey dude, well I do what I can
But you treat me like a woman
When I feel like a man"

Made more sense my way.

Everybody's familiar with the Lion King and The Lion King 2. In the lion king 2 there is a song called 'Inupendi' or something which has something to do with love (i forgot the meaning) when I was a kid I always thought they said, 'In your pantie'.

While in the Lion King (the first one) at some point where Rafiki chants some weird stuff I actually heard him say "Stuffed banana up his arse"

I used to always think as a kid that the song "Blue Bayou" was really "Blue By You" and when that song came on the radio I would always try to find something blue near me.

When I was about 8yrs. old, everytime I heard the Steve Miller band song "Big Ole Jet Airliner", I thought they were saying "Didn't go to jail at a line up".
I found out what the right words were one day when I heard the DJ say the name of the song.

I used to think that the lyrics to Eric Clapton's song "Cocaine" went:
"She's alright, she's alright, she's alright...okay."
I couldn't understand why Eric Clapton would write a song about a girl that he just thought was "alright" and "okay."

I used to think that the lyrics "Hitch a ride" in the "Superman" song were "Hit yer eyes". Consequently, whenever it was played at home I used to run around the house punching myself in the face.

Queen, "Headlong"'s lyrics say

"And you're rushing headlong"
but i heard them as
"Get your Russian hands off!!"

My younger brother used to think that song by the blue man group, instead of "I'm blue, babadi abadi..." went, "Oh, I'm a bee. I'm a guy. "I'm a bee. I'm a guy." etc. It was hilarious he never could figure out why we would laugh like maniacs when he sang along.

eagles forever!

I thought in Jay-Z's song Renegade, he says 'Say that I'm foolish, I only talk about Jews'. As it turns out, the line is 'I only talk about jewels'. I wondered for a while while Jay-Z had an obession with Jewish people.

"Hush, hush, keep it down now, this is scary"
instead of
"Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry."

Early this year, when Apologize was repeatedly being played on the radio, I kept on hearing it and singing it as "It's shoelace to 'pologize" And I'd ask what "'pologize" meant to all my friends and they'd give me funny looks. Haha. :P I'd also imagine the music video with a bunch of dancing shoelace. :))

Blah.

When I was little and innocent (and understood hardly any English) I was sure that instead of "sex bomb" Tom Jones sings "James Bond, James Bond, you are James Bond". I was frustrated when I didn't find it from my father's "Bond theme songs" CD.

I used to think the song Row Your Boat was either about my mother or written for her. Her name is Merlie and I always thought the chorus was Merlie, Merlie, Merlie, Merlie Life is but a Dream

When I was young, I though the David Bowie song "Suffragette CIty" went, "Awww, wham, bam, bacon ham!" My mom never tried to correct me.

I used to think the lyrics to the Pink Floyd song were "We don't need no Dukes of Hazzard" instead of "We don't need no dark sarcasm" I think it was because my mother wouldn't let me watch the show.

watching whatever I want now

my girlfriend and i had jsut watched a James Bond movie, and she started to sing "secret-- agent man, secret--agent maaan....." only problem was, she thought the words were "secret Asian man"....

Here's a few:

"I'm a Danish, I'm a Danish" as opposed to " Amadeus, Amadeus"...

Kim Wilde:

"pack of crisps in America" as opposed to "we're the kids of America"

Hot Chocolate:

"I believe it milk oils" as opposed to "I believe in miracles"

In the Kenny Rogers song, You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, I always thought the line "four hungry children" was actually "four hundred children". Surprisingly it never occured to me why they had so many children.
