I would sing out the lyrics to Creedence Clearwater Revival song, Lodi "stuck in Lodi again" as "only the old die young"...until a college friend (after she recovered from laughing) told me the real lyrics. I still have trouble referring to the song correctly!
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

- in the song with the lyrics "take your passion" my sister used to always think it was "take your pants off"— Steped
- My mum always thought the lyrics to macy grays song was i try to say goodbye to my chook.— alana

— Big Suburban - My friend used to believe that the lyrics to Elton John's "Tiny Dancer" were:
"Hold me closer Tony Danza"— I'm with stupid - When I was young,I thought the lyrics "Secret Agent man" were actually "Secret Asian Man".— M.M.B.
