Good day mates, I'm referring to the Aussie band Crowded House's biggest single; "Don't Dream Its Over". Their chorus goes like this:
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win
But as I child, I thought the chorus read like this:
Paper, paper
I'm three years old, heh
Paper, paper
When the word comes in
Acorn, acorn
It's a world between us
You'll know they won't win
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- when my friend was little, she used to eat paper, thinking it would make her read better.— hehehe
- I used to believe that house fires were caused by foolish people who put paper on the stove.— C.C.
- I used to think that when you sent a fax, the paper went through the wires.— em
- when I was small I always thought that the solar system ended, and then it was just white paper after that— sparrow
- When I was little, I believed that clouds came from paper mills.— Ryne
- I use to think that mummies were wrapped in toilet paper.— Glowworm
