I used to believe that Bryan Adam's "Summer of '69" was "I got my first real sex-dream" instead of "I got my first real six-string"

My uncle was 100% convinced that "Do the hustle" was actually "eat a hot dog!"... he would walk through my grandma's house disco dancing and belting it out.

Destiny's Child - I Depend On Me

"The shoes on my feet
Alf Garnett
The clothes I'm wearing
Alf Garnett
The rock I'm rocking
Alf Garnett
Coz I depend on meat
If I want it
The watch I'm wearing
Alf Garnett
The house I live in
Alf Garnett
The car I'm driving
Alf Garnett
I depend on meat
I depend on meat..."

— Santa Puncher

Funeral for a Friend - Waking Up

I could swear these were the lyrics:

I'm lying in the truth
I'm covered in blue liquid
A passion for our shoes

But when I looked it up:

Is a lie just the truth
Uncovered and relinquished
A passion for all young fools

Hmmm... I prefer my version :)

I believed that TLC's "Don't Go Chasing Waterfalls" really was "Don't Go Jason Waterfalls". It could be a guy, right?

The abba song, called "does your mother know" should be: "Well I could dance with you honey, if you think it's funny, but does your mother know that you're out .... and l could chat with you baby flirt a little maybe".
When I was young, I used to think it was "Well I could dance with you honey, if you think it's funny, I'M DANCING WITH ANOTHER GIRAFFE .... and l could chat with you baby, EARN A LITTLE MINI, but does your mother know that your out".

— Matt W

When I was a kid I was a massive S Club 7 fan { wow that took alot of courage to say } and I thought the words to part of their song Don't Stop Movin was "Teacher's got us swirling around".

It was actually "DJ's got us going around."

— Razorness

In the Supremes song, Love Child, I thought that the words "hold on just a little bit" instead said "Wait (why don't you put on a condom?) Seemed logical enough.

I thought that the song "Built this City" by starship went as follows. "Milk and Cereal, Rock and Roll"

I thought Pink's "You make me sick" was "you make me sick, you make me look like a candlestick" LOL

— Rice

During the "Bang! Bang!" part of the song Love Shack by the B-52s I thought that the backup singers were actually yelling "Batman!"

I was 4 and just assumed that the song must have been on the soundtrack for the Batman movie. I also thought that the guy who played the Joker (whom I now know as Jack Nicholson) was the guy who sang in the song. Man I was way off on that one. Jack Nicholson has to have SO much more money than them!

my little sister used to sing her version of Robbie Williams "Angels" but her bit was "And through it all she offers me protection, a little love and infection!" but it really goes "And through it all, she offers me protection, a lotta love and affection"This was actually another classic from my 5 year old sister, who was belting it out at the top of her voice. We just didn't have the heart to correct her!!

Again my mum thought the song "Blue Velvet" by Bobby Vinton, was "She wore blue, Melvin." instead of the correct lyrics "She wore Blue Velvet " lol

My 3 year-old nephew was singing Bob the Builder, but instead of the real words that are....

Scoop, Muck, and Dizzy
Roly too, ....

He sang....

Too f***ing busy,
Rolly too...

He was walking around the house one day, and his mother and I both looked at each other and said "WHAT did he just say?!?"

when i was younger i thought the words to "paint me a birmingham" by tracy lawrance
was paint me a bruning ham. and i did not understand why he wanted it or wanted to plan that ethier...

— dakota-dosen't like burnt ham.

I used to think that
"The land of make believe"
was
"The land of baked beans."

— Baked Bean!

I thought when i was like nine in the song allstar by smashmuth went like this.
Hey no your a rockstar,get the show on get laid.
So when i sung that in front of my family and friends they made me wash my mouth with soap.
Not my fault lol

I used to think that the lyrics to "Big Ol' Jet Airliner" by Steve Miller Band went: "Big, old Jed had a lighthouse..." I thought somehow that this "Jed" was the same Jed from the 'Beverly Hillbillies', and that he was so rich, he bought his own lighthouse. To this day, I still sing those lyrics.

— Calactus

When I use to listen to the song 'Wings of Love', I used to think the line 'Only the two of us together flying high' was 'Only the two of us to give a flying eye'.

— I love music lots
