I used to believe…

One day, when I was about six, a Destiny's Child song called Jumpin Jumpin came on. Where it says, "Cause it's 11:30 and da club is Jumpin, Jumpin" I imagined people owning a secret club in a treehouse jumping up and down. When I asked my sister(who was 16 at the time) why they were singing about a treehouse, she just laughed.

i used to listen to the song 'man in the moon' and when the line went 'if you believe there is a man in the moon...' i thought it was 'if you believe there is a man in you room'

I used to believe…

Yep I thought the Zephyr song was fly away on my cell phone

I used to believe…

At a family sing-along my sister made us all hysterical while singing Kenny Roger's Lucille. Instead of the words '4 hungry children & a crop in the field' she sang '400 children & a crop in the field.' Although she knows the correct words now, she will never live this one down for generations!

I used to believe…

in the song with the lyrics "take your passion" my sister used to always think it was "take your pants off"

I used to believe…

In early elementary school I thought "My Country 'Tis of Thee..." was "My Country Tisafee." I was under the impression that the U.S.A. could be called America or, I guessed, Tisafee. I even told a crush of mine named Tiffany that her named kinda sounded like our country's one morning in class... she gave me a rather puzzled look...

I used to believe…

In Alannis Morrisette's song "Ironic" instead of "An old man turned ninty-eight" I would sing "The Postman turned and he ate"

I used to be scared that Elvis Presley would peak in my bedroom window. I had 2 windows, but I only feared he would look in the East one, and never the North side one.

I used to believe…

When I was 9, my cousin was 8. I had brought my Britney Spears CD to the Thanksgiving gathering that year. I had my headset, and she was listening to "Lucky" on the CD. She was singing along, "And she cries, cries, cries, in the lonely dawn thinking..." I hope she figured out she was wrong.

I'm not sure of the song's title, but my little brother mistook the lyrics: "fifty seven channels and nothing on", for "fifty seven towns and a dozen farms"

I used to believe…

My wife still believes to this day, that the song that says, "down in the boondocks", is actually "down by the moon rocks". It is an ongoing disagreement of which I am right!

I used to think that a song 'Venus' by Frankie Avalon said....

"Hey Penis, Oh, Penis
Penis if you will..."

I used to believe…

When the song “She's Always a Woman To Me” first came out, I thought the lyrics were “She's a Weasel Woman to Me.” To this day, the image I see when I hear that song is of a weasel being serenaded.

I used to believe…

When I was little, I thought the song that goes "Goin' to the chapel and we're gonna get married" went "Goin' to the Jack-o-lantern, gonna get married"... Who knows, maybe some people want to get married on Halloween?

I used to love the song "Hitchin a ride" but I always sang it "ride ride ride, hey Generide" where Generide was a girls name, and they were just saying hey to her

I was puzzled by the "sealing wax" that Jackie Paper brought Puff the Magic Dragon. I thought it was "ceiling wax" - wax that collected on the ceiling, a bit like earwax.
