I thought that the lyrics for 'Tequila' by Terrorvision were actually 'I want to kill her, it makes me happy..' and I preferred the song when I thought that! I was in my twenties though, so does this count?

I used to believe…

Don't actually know the name of the song - but the lyrics "wide eyed and legless" escaped me for years. I though the guy was singing "my diamond necklace" for years before I realised my mistake!

I used to believe…

When I was youn I thought a 78 rpm record could only be played once and was then discarded. I was impressed by the largesse of my father's friend who played his John McCormack records for us.

I used to be sure that Elton John and John Lennon were the same person - I'd heard some Beatles as a little boy, but knew that no one but a Beatle could have sung Rocket Man. It also made sense since Paul McCartney had 'Uncle Albert' out around the same time.

I still hear in the Kate Bush song 'Strange Phenomenon' the words "they made me regurgitate cheese food" for the actual lyrics "they made me read Gurdjieff and Jesus"

I used to beleive the lyrics to outcast's miss jackson went "Im sorry miss Jackson, I never meant to make your doctor cry" (it is actually "I never ment to make your daughter cry")

I used to think the lyrics to "Venus" were "I'm your fidas, I'm your fire, and George 'n sire" instead of the actual lyrics which are "I'm your Venus, I'm you fire, at your desire."

i thought the line from Grease which goes "I've got chills, they're multiplying, and im loosing control" went "i've got cheeeese, they're multiplying, and im blue said the troll"
wish i hadnt sung that in the playground when i was little...

I used to believe…

in the song 'Push It' by Salt & Peppa, when they sang "p push it real good"i used to think it went "poor pussy realgood", and so i hated it, cos i thought it was about someone being horrible to a cat named Realgood. i still sing it my way though.

I remember asking my mother why Madonna was singing about being like a line down the side of a page... Virginity was not the easiest concept for my mum to explain to a 5 year old.

Even so, it still didn't rival my favourite song 'Get that hornet'.

I used to believe…

My ex-wife would sing the Eagle's song: Life in the fast lane... However, her version of that catchy tune was: Fightin' in the pass-lane.

I used to believe…

my daughter was singing robbie williams
feel when it came to the bit i've got to much life running through my veins she was singing i've got too much blood running through my veins at the top off her voice

I used to believe…

my brother used to think that the lyric's to POD's song "youth of a nation" went "we are we are, use your imagination". I laughed so hard when i heard him singing that!!

I used to believe…

Instead of "Do they owe us a living? Course they do! Course the do!" in the Crass song.. my friend believed it was.. "Do they owe a living? Cosovo! Cosovo!"

I used to believe…

When I was a young boy listening to the Beatles hit song, Ticket To Ride, I always thought they were singing, "She's got a chicken to ride". I used to sing that at the top of my lungs in my dad's car as he laughed, but he never told me the real words. I always wondered, what a huge chicken that must be, and how much fun that ride must have been!

I was listening to System of a Down's "sugar" on my CD player one day, and my 4 year old cousin started singing along. He completely messed up the lyrics. The first line of the song is "The kombucha muchroom people" and he sang "The paloocha mocha people". I laughed so hard i nearly cried.
