I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but in the case of me and my best friend, we thought that in Dido's song, "White Flag" the chorus sounded exactly like: I will go down with this ship ...And I'll POKE MY EYES OUT and surrender.
The actual lyrics are: ...And I won't put my hands up and surrender.
Ah, well. We were close! lol take care
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- Actual lyrics: "I've never been your beast of burden"
My lyrics: "I've never been your big suburban"
— Big Suburban - Remember the old Tubes song "White Punks on Dope". Thought they were singing "White Folks are Dumb"
— WailerMan - I used to think that the chorus of "mountain song" by jane's addiction was in a different language— nothing'sshocking
