In the song "Sugar, We're Going Down Swinging" by Fall Out Boy, I thought the lyrics went:
"Is this more than you want to forget?"
when they really go:
"Is this more than you bargained for yet?"
I didn't know until I had looked up the lyrics one day!
Another one..I was listening to the song "Niki FM" by Hawthorne Heights and I thought they said:
"Solitude, black and white"
when they were saying:
"The silence in black and white" Until I was singing the song and my friend pointed it out. Then she laughed at me, but told me that she thought the same thing at first!
Last one..In the HIM song "Join Me" I thought that he was saying:
"So won't you join me in there"
when the lyrics really went:
"So won't you join me in death"
It was kind of funny. I realised my mistake when I found out the full song title was Join Me
(In Death) and was pondering the lyrics. hehe.
Remember dinosaurs and pink penguins knock your socks off. Rawr. :]
