There's a John Mellencamp song that has the line "I fight authority, and authority always wins." I thought they were saying "I fight Dorothy, and Dorothy always wins!"
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- I used to believe that everytime i saw a helicopter the A-team were in it on their way to fight the baddies!— Natalie
- i used to believe that if i wasn't nice to my toys, they would fight back.
Anon - I used to think an Afghan hound was a breed of terrorist dog that had to fight in the Taliban!Anon
- "Somewhere over the rainbow
Weigh a pie."
Why did Dorothy weigh a pie somewhere over the rainbow?— John - My sister believed the pork in pork and beans was marshmallow...and would always "fight" us for it.Anon
- When I was little I used to believe that boxers fight only fists into fists.
