A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

When I first heard the song "A Public Affair" by Jessica Simpson, I thought one of the lines went like this:

All the camels come out for a public affair...

when it really went like this:

All the cameras come out for a public affair, etc.

I was wondering why there weren't camels in the music video, since Jessica was singing about them. Then this morning I was watching the video on MTV and I put the closed caption on so I could see the words... I was so disappointed. I like my version better.
