My ex was convinced the line from David Bowie's "Suffrigette City" was "don't lean on me man 'cos you can't afford the chickens" (as opposed to "you can't afford the ticket")
A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

others believed things like this
- I thought that since my grandpa and my dad's names are both David, than David Bowie must be my aunt's son.Anon
- David Bowie - Jean Genie
"The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves cheesy snacks"— Santa Puncher - Until i was about 6, i used to believe that when the police gave you a ticket, it was a ticket to the movies!— mari
- When I was about seven, I was utterly convinced that chickens had leaves and trees had feathers.— Confused
- I used to believe that chickens reproduced A sexually and that roosters were just handicapped chickens. — Teena Strang
- I used to think that a conductor while conducting told the players what to play as opposed to their music.— Daryl
