Until a bit ago, my 15-year-old friend thought that the lyrics to big yellow taxi were "paved paradise and put up a f***ing light" She would always talking loudly at that part in the song when she was in the car with her little brothers because she didn't want them to hear it.
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- I used to believe that the yellow light in traffic-lights meant Go Faster!— M. L. E.
- My mum always thought the lyrics to macy grays song was i try to say goodbye to my chook.— alana
- I used to believe that speed bumps were dead bodies that had been paved over.— Natalie
- I always thought the song Blinded by the light went "Wrapped up like a dousche, another runner in the night"— Dawn
- My brothers friend still thinks he will be a kangaroo when he grows up and he's 9!!!!!— Jane Rom
- I used to hear "Everytime you go away, you take a piece of Meat with you"
Makes a nice light snack I spose.— Linda
