misheard lyrics

I used to believe that the words to Tom Jones - Sex Bomb was actually Sex Pot. I know the words don't sound the same but if you listen to the song, it really does sound like sex pot

Kerry

I swear in the song 'Blue' by Eiffel 65, they are not saying da ba dee da ba di... but, If I was green I would die... No one else seems to hear it though.

Emily

My friend used to think "smoke on the water, fire in the sky" was "smooth walking Walter, the fire engine guy"

H Janus

My son who is now grown up loved to sing along to the Rick Astley song "Fold me in your arms". It was hold not fold!

Lisa

Mysterious Ways - U2

My girlfriend confessed she had some difficulty understanding the line "Onionese Boy" (a boy from Onionesia?)
I almost felt sorry telling her the actual line is "On your knees boy". We both had a good laugh.

MG, Sweden

as most of you know,there was a song called wannabe by the spice girls. When it says "i really, really, really, wanna Zigga Say ah" i used to think it said "a willy, willy, willy, willy, willy WAH WAH!"

Supergirl

In the 80's, in my early teens, I used to think that one line of the lyrics in "The Final Countdown" by Europe was "We're heading for peanuts" - when it's really "We're heading for Venus"...

Blissfully anonymous

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!!

Maeghan

I used to think that song "Shake Your Booty" Was "shake you food in". I thought how stupid, who shakes their food in!

LP

i used to think that the lyrics to the sex pistols song pretty vacant were
"i dont belive illusions spend to muck in toledo so keep your cheap coming cause we dont want your fritos" the real lyrics are i dont belive illusions cause to much is real so stop your cheap comments cause we know what we feel

sidney

Steve Miller's "Big ole jet airliner"...i always heard "big ole J with a lighter"

Anon

I used to think that song that goes "everytime you go away, you take a piece of me with you" went "everytime you go away, you take a piece of MEAT with you". To me it made much more sense than taking a piece of someone else.

Boet

My parents were big fans of the show "Cheers." Whenever I heard the theme song, I thought that "You want go where everyone knows your name" was actually "You want to go where everyone knows Yulnay" and that Yulnay was some really cool person.

Jess

I used to think the song Dude Looks Like A Lady by Aerosmith said "Do the f***kin' lady" intead of "Dude looks like a lady"

The Embarassed One

When I was little, I used to think that a line in Wilson Phillips' "Reckless" went "I want to be a horse's breakfast" as opposed to "impulsive, reckless." I couldn't figure out why anyone would want to be a horse's breakfast. Suicide perhaps?

Garth Brooks' "Shameless".... I thought it was "Shavin'".

Don't know who sings it, but my friend thought the funk song "Doin' the Butt" was actually "Do it in the Butt." HUGE difference!

Absent Reasonable Logic

The Madonna song 'Life is a mystery' always sounded like 'life is a mysery' to me.

Del

I thought the line in "America the Beautiful" that went "Four purple mountains, majesty among the fruited plain" was "Four purple mountains, najesties, above the fruited plate."

It made sense to me. A plate with fruits.

Shirley B.

mandy

When Eminem first came out my mom listened to his song Ï think ym dads gone crazy" or w/e the name is.. And she thought it said "I love my hair", dont know how she got that, but she did.. And whenever she sings it we laugh at her and she's like "What?"

MellisaButtButt(Soap)
