Boston, "More Than A Feeling"..
True Lyrics: "I see my marianne walkin' away"
What I heard: "I see my derriere walkin' away"
Painful!
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- Did anybody besides me believe that Londonderry Air was actually London Derriere?— Texas granny
- When I first heard Stawberry Fields Forever, I misheard the lyrics as Strawberry Fields For Trevor.— Matt
- Actual lyrics: "I've never been your beast of burden"
My lyrics: "I've never been your big suburban"
— Big Suburban - I used to beleive that a catacism(spelling?) was an extremely painful Christian version of a bris.— Mike
- I used to believe that being wasted meant feeling really tired. Anon
- I am Canadian and when I was little I would sing "True Pastry Love" instead of 'True Patriot Love"— Jess
