music: misheard lyrics

When I was little, I thought the song 7 Nation Army went like this:
"I'm gonna fight em off, the salvation army couldn't hold me back"
and the song that goes "My boy's gonna play in the big leagues" was "My boys gonna play in the dippy"
I also thought the song that goes "S'cuse me, while i kiss the sky" was "S'cuse me, while i kiss this guy"
I was a weeeeeeeird kid..

in pink's god is a dj..my friend thought that the words were "if god is a dj, then life is an asshole"

theyre actually "if god is a dj, life is a dancefloor"

when i was younger, i used to like a song, dont know who it was by..that had the lyrics "it must have been love but it's over now" mistaking "it must have been love" for "aston villa" (an english footie team if anyones puzzled lol..) (if u know the song, listen, and it will make sense..) and being in awe that someone loved a football team THAT much

I used to think that the words for outkasts 'Hey ya' went 'shake it like a polaroid pizza' instead of ' shake it like a polaroid picture'
also i used to think that in the song i try by Macy Gray that it said 'I wear googgles when your are not near' instead of 'My world crumbles when you are not near' dunno why?....

When I was a kid, my "cool" older cousins always used to listen to AC/DC and there's a song on Back In Black
(Givin' The Dog A Bone) that I used to believe had something to do with the smurfs. When they sang the chorus, I thought they were singing "Give it to Gargamo! Yeah! Give it to Gargamo!" I thought Gargamo must have been Gargamel's brother or something and that whatever "it" was, it would surely spell doom for the smurf way of life.

There was a popular song when I was little that had the line "Don't it make my brown eyes blue?" The singer had wonderful long hair and pretty blue eyes.

I had brown eyes and wanted bule eyes so bad. I thought the lyrics were "Donuts make my brown eyes blue." She was giving out beauty tips!! I ate lots and lots of donuts, as my waistline could confirm, but I still have brown eyes.

There's this Elton John song, 'Benny & The Jets'... well, in it, there's this line that I thought says, "She's got electric boobs, her mom has too," but it really says, "She's got electric boots, a mohair suit." And I sing this at the top of my lungs all the time.... =p

The chorus of "Every Time You Go Away" (by Paul Young) goes: "Every time you go away, you take a piece of me with you." But as a child I thought it said "you take a piece of meat with you." I always was puzzled by that.

my mother, when she was small, used to love the xmas song - 'the 12 twelve days of christmas'

however she always beleived that on the 1st day of christmas...'my tulip said to me..' instead of 'my true love sent to me!!'

as a result i find it very hard to sing the right words!! ah well its worth it...gettin to have a laugh at my mums expense!!!

One week before christmas I asked my mom, where we could get a "Partriginipear" Tree since there was a song about it I thought it was a must have kind of tree, for the season to get started. Mom and I argued for what seemed to be about 20 minutes, where she clearly explained about a partridge bird , in a pear tree.

I always used to think that in the song "you sexy thing" by Hot Chocolate, the opening words were 'I believe in Michael' instead of the real words which are 'I believe in miracles' crazy I know.

I used to hear in Warrant's song "Bed of Roses"; where it goes"on the bed of roses, not beneath some motel light..." - "on the bed of roses, nothing seems to multiply..." LOL, I have no idea, WHAT should multiply there...:)

I also misheard ABBA's Dancing Queen... where it goes "dig in the dancing queen", I heard "chicken, the dancing queen.." the fun thing is, My sister said me that, laughing at me (I was a huge ABBA fan back then), like"what stupid kind of song you listen to, it's about a chicken!" I was very angry at her, but I was kinda ashamed for my favorite band, 'cause I thought my sister was right.... Well, it still sounds like "chicken", what can I do:D

I used to believe…

That the line in Desitny's Child 's Bootylischous, " I don't think you're ready for this jelly" was infact
" I don't think you're ready for FISH jelly"

As far as I was concerned no one was ready for that. EEEWWW

When I sang the American national anthem as a child, I thought that the line, "...by the dawn's early light" was actually "...by the 'dawnserly' light", and 'dawnserly' was a word that meant something aking to 'beautiful'. My parents thought it was cute, when I used 'dawnserly' in a sentence as a substitute for beautiful, and laughingly corrected me. I was a touch ashamed, though, and disappointed that such a word didn't actually exist.

When I was young my Mom thought she would be cool and listen to some of my music. She used to beleive (and sing) that the Eurythmics song, "You Dropped a Bomb on Me"...was "You Dropped a Farm on Me".

When I was in an infant church school I used to think that the hymn that goes' I am the lord of the dance said he' was ' I am the lord of the dance settee.' The fact that it was completely illogical never crossed my mind.

I used to believe that the lyrics to Savage Gardens Animal Song was "I wanna live like cannibal" I always wondered why they wanted to eat other people, was it better than eating animals??

When "In Da Club" by 50 Cent first came out I was in like 6th grade. And by now we all know, he really doesn't enunciate much. You know how, in the beginning, he goes "Go shawty, it's your birthday" and stuff like that? For like 3 months I sang "Go shawty, it's shiver, k?" Until finally at this dance this one kid came up to me and was like "What are you singing?" I was so embarrassed. And also mad that everyone just let me go around singing that.

Her name in Rio and she dances in the sand were the actual lyrics to the Duran Duran song that I used to sing along with. But...I sang slightly different words.... her name is Rio and she doesn't understand. Poor confused Rio!
