In the song Blinded By the Light, I thought the words were "wrapped up like a douche, another roller in the night". What does that mean?! I'm still not sure exactly what the words are along with a few other verses I can't make out all the words to.

I used to think "Don't be fooled by the rock that i go" form Jenny from the block was "Don't be fooled by the LUCKS that i got" and i realised the correct one just now! after i look at the lyrics.

In the Brittany Spear's song my daughter thought she said, "My onlyness is healing me, I must confess I silly leave, when your not with me I use my mind this is a sign, don't hit me baby one more time." She was five at the time!

When that "What a girl wants" song by Christina Aguilera came out, I thought the lyrics that were "Whatever makes me happy sets you free" was "Whatever makes me having sex, you three". I believed it for a long time until I actually read the lyrics.

I used to think that:

1) 'Louie Louie, oh no' was 'Do I? Do I? Oh no...'

and that:

2) 'On through the dead of night, with the four horsemen ride, or choose your fate and die' was 'On through the dead of night, we're the four horsemen right, so lose your faith and die!'

I used to think that the song 'Row, Row, Row You Boat' said "life is pot a scream" instead of "life is but a dream." My da still teases me about that.

Gorrilaz one of my favorites,I thought one part,at the begining "City's breaking down on a camels back" but I heard "santa's breaking down on a camels back" and the repeating part "Windmill,Windmill of the land" I heared "Women,Women on the land

In the Captain and Tennille song "Love Will keep Us Together" I heard:

When those girls start hanging around talking me down
Hear with your heart and your long hair astounding....

instead of : Hear with your heart and you won't hear a sound

and

Young and beautiful
Someday your look so evolved

rather than:
Young and beautiful
Someday your looks will be gone

— Dave Adair

i used to think that the beach boys song Barbara Ann said " ba ba ba, ba ba barim...." until just a minute ago when i read this site....no matter what u might think, not all honors students are smart :-)

— Ba Barim :-)

I used to believe that a song that said "Bye Bye My Baby, Bye Bye" was saying "bye bye my baby ba-ba" My family called bottles ba-bas and when my little sister gave hers away we played that song.

For a long time I thought that 'Milk is silly in Rock and Roll"

This isn't MINE, perse, but it's still enough to make me go into fits of laughter whenever I hear the song:

My friend Hyatt and I were sitting in her room listening to the radio. The Beach Boy's song "Barbara Ann" came on the radio, and Hyatt began singing it phonetically. It didn't sound all that wrong until after the song was over.

"Alistaire? What's a boberanne?"

"I dunno."

"Because I have a theory. A boberanne is a pink flamingo wearing Mardi Gras beads and an ornate feathered-headdress."

".... Good call."

— Alistaire and His Magical Boberanne

We in the UK had a singer years ago called James who sang a song called Sit Down. I thought the lyrics said: "Sit down if your pleased", it was actually "Sit down next to me."

My dad told me he was in a contest to see who got the lyrics right for 'Blue' by Eiffel 65. My dad told me that his friends said stuff like 'if I were green I would die' and 'i'm so very high' and other stuff! =D LOL!!!!

— caitlyn eadler

I used to believe the lyrics in Theory of a Deadman's "No Surprise" were..

"Who would ever think I'd go and end up,
Like all the other guys that you've gone and F***ED!"

its actaully

"All the other guys that you've gone in for"
