I used to think that the words in Macy Grey's song - "I try to run away but I stumble" were "I try to run away to Istanbul"
And also in Wheatus' song, Teenage Dirtbag, where it says "I've got to tickets to Iron Maiden baby" I thought it was "I've got to tickets to Irelande baby"
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics
others believed things like this
- when i was little i believed that if you got three speeding tickets that you went to the electric chairAnon
- My mum always thought the lyrics to macy grays song was i try to say goodbye to my chook.— alana
- that song that goes *bring me a higher love*
i thought it said *breathing in iron lung*— oi - on "highway to hell" i always thought it goes "baby see, baby do" instead of "hey satan, payin´ my dues"— Miss Understood
- When I first heard Bruce Springsteen's song, "Born in the USA," I thought that the song was "Porn in the USA"Anon
- That because Gerber Baby Food had a baby on it real babies were put in there. Thanks a lot cousin!— Nicole
