i used to think that fallout boy - sugar we're going down which goes "dont mind me im watching you two from the closet wishing to be the friction in your jeans, isnt it messed up how im just dieing to be him?"said "tell mummy im watching you two from the closet, wishing to be the friction in your jeans, is it the next stop? oh im just dieing to be here!" i only realised the truth wen my workmate told me after i sang it while serving on tills in front of about 5 customers!

i also took a lot of convincing that will smith sang switch! i had no other suggestion of who it was, but it wasnt will smith

and it took me ages to understand that madonna in "like a prayer" and kelis in "milkshake" were using lots of imagery and not speaking literally! wasnt helped by the fact that kelis' video is in a milkshake place!

In the song RIGHT HERE by ''SWV'' I used to think in the lyircs they were saying just ''RIGHT HERE-you can have it all'' ON THE CHORUS..THEY WERE ACTUALLY SAYING ''Right here, be right here, right here, BE RIGHT here, NO FEAR, have no fear, NO TEARS, love is here..

When I was 7, a teacher at school used to sing " My Bonny is over the ocean",
but untill I learned English at the age of 12, I sang:
" My BODY is over the ocean, my BODY is over the se, ..."

Well, I still love the song, no matter the lyrics...

When I was in kindergarden, we sang this song, and I couldn't unterstand some lyrics. So I was singing just what I heard, but it didn't make any sense at all. A few years later someone explained it to me and it was a song about a rainbow.
