You know that song "Indian Outlaw" by Tim McGraw? There's a part in the beginning that I always thought went, "All my friends call me dirt ball." Well, I heard it a few weeks ago and realized that he's saying "bear claw." I'm still not sure what he's saying.

"Everybody ther'es a halo hanging from the corner of my girlfriend's hot dog stand" instead of

Every Morning by Sugar Ray

In Alanis Morissette's song "Ironic", I thought the first line said "An old man turned and yanked", which I figured made sense if he won the lottery. Maybe he turned and yanked on a slot machine or something?...

— Mel

The song, "When the moon hits the sky like a big pizza pie, it's amore", I used to think was
"When the moon hits the sky like a big piece of pie, it's a meringue"

I thought that Ac/Dc song, "You Shook Me All Night Long" was "You Shoot Me All Night Long." I figured out the song was about sex, but I thought "shoot me" was a slang that I just hadn't heard yet.

he actually said 'smells like sex tonight'
i got very embarrassed when it came on the radio

In "the anthem" by good charlotte, it still sounds to me like he's saying "I never use the restroom" in a slurred voice at the end when he really says "Another loser anthem, woah!" lol

— Amused

You know that song that goes "When the moon hits the sky like a big pizza pie, it's amore"? well, i used to think he was saying "it's a Moray", and it made no sense to me until i discovered that AMORE is "love" in Italian! lol

— Amore

The song "our lips are sealed" by the gogo's always used to confuse me when i was little because it sounded like she was saying "I'm a sa-seal". i thought it was really weird that she thought she was a seal...lol then i didnt realize the real lyrics until a few years ago when hilary duff remade it! lol

— Seal
