When I was a kid and I heard the song, "What becomes of the broken hearted?" I used to think that the second line was "paid a dime but only farted." I still think of that line when the song comes on.

Another Beach Boys Kokomo mix-up. I heard the line "That monserrat mystique" as "That monster out to sea" Still can't get it right in my head.

Remember the song "Dirty Deeds"? I used to sing it "Dirty Deeds and the Thunder Chief". When the song came on the radio last year, I asked my husband what on earth they were saying because by then I figured out that maybe "Thunder Chief" didn't make much sense. I still sing it wrong.

Another one: "Hey little thing let me light your candle 'cause momma I'm sure I'm Don Henley now".

One of our neighbor kids was learning songs in first grade. I over heard her singing "Land where the pigeons flied ..... from every mountain slide, let freedom ring." Somehow, her version makes more sense today.

I used to think that Green Day's "Time of Your Life" went
Another yearning goat, a cork stuck in a toad,
Time grabs you by the wrist and erects you and your nose.
o.O Don't ask...

The song "American Pie" by Don McLean has the lyrics:

"While Lenin read a book of Marx..."

I thought it was:

"While Lennon read a book of marks..."
Something about John Lennon and a tally sheet or something.

I also thought the next line, instead of "...dirges in the dark" was "Sturgis in the dark", because my dad was a Harley enthusiast.

It also took me awhile to realize that the song was about Buddy Holly (man, alot of people post about him on here).

I listened to Led Zeplin singing

"I want to be your back door man"

for many years before I realized he was singing about anal sex. I thought he meant sneaking in the back door of the house, like they were having an affair or something. Thanks Tim for clearing that one up for me.
