My mate used to tell me about several new Police songs back in 1978 - I thought some were really rude:
Rock Salmon (Roxanne)
Massage in a brothel (message in a bottle)
A year has passed since I "broke my nose" (wrote my note)
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- in sting's / the police's song ''roxanne''. I thaught that it was ''rock sand''— wacko zacho
- Oasis - Don't Look Back In Anger
"Oh, Harry can't mate
He knows it's too late
As he's stalking, oh my..."— Santa Puncher - I used to think a brothel was another word for a soup kitchen.Anon
- I used to believe that a brothel was where poor people used to go to get free broth.— Rob. UK
- I thought the song "Karma Police" was actually saying "call the police" before I learned the title— Alberto Richardson
- When I used to see the sign 'police accident' I thought it meant that a police car had crashed.Anon
