music: misheard lyrics

I used to love that song that played before Friends. I used to sing along, too.
"So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your job's a jojabro
Your love's lost you your way"

To answer any follow up questions, I have absolutely no idea what a jojabro is.

In 2nd grade we sang a song for our winter concert, I don't remember what it was called but it had one line that went "With the flutes I'll play my balalaika". Well, after practice I heard a friend sitting next to me singing to themself "With the fruits I'll play my but I like ya". We still joke about it to this day whenever someone mentions a flute or a balalaika.

I always thoguth that Natalie Imbruglia was actually singing 'Didn't wanna leave you with my last infection' instead of 'Didn't wanna leave you with my last inflection'
I always wondered what she'd caught and who from!!!!!!

My parents listened to Kenny Rodgers when I was younger. Up until very recently both me and my sister (who are 26 and 21 respectively). Thought that the lines in Lucille said 'four hundred children' instead of 'four hungry children'. We just thought it was a case of country music style exagggeration.

My boyfriend admitted to me that at school he was curious as to what a 'rancer-doo' was. As in the song 'Daisy, daisy, give me your...rancer-doo'!!! He'll never live that one down!

I used to think that the song "Sandra Dee" from grease went "look at me, I'm Sandra Dee, lousy whisper (with her) gin and tee" (as in gin and tonic), but come to find out just before I was 17 it was "lousy with virginity." Go figure! I thought I was right.

I used to believe that the song that goes "put my chevy to the levy but the levy was dry." went "Put machete (big sword thing) through the lady but the lady won't die" My friend started laughing at me when I started singing it one day...

When Alanis Morrisette was first popular, my sister and I both liked the song, "You Oughta Know." I had to laugh uproariously one day when I realized that my sister was singing, "The cross-eyed bear that you gave to me" instead of "The cross I bear, that you gave to me."

I always hear Manic Street Preachers 'You Love Us' as 'You Love Arse'.

in the song JUMP by Van Halen I thought David Lee Roth was singing: "I got my back against the wrecking machine" when he really says "... against the record machine"

In The Bee Gees' 'Too Much Heaven' where Barry says 'Ooh you and me girl', I thought for years that he said 'Ooh you nigger' and was quite upset that he had said this and had been allowed to get away with it.

I used to think in Britney Spears' song "Baby one more Time" instead of "My loneliness ... is killin me" I thought she sang "my lonely ass...is killin me".

When the song “She's Always a Woman To Me” first came out, I thought the lyrics were “She's a Weasel Woman to Me.” To this day, the image I see when I hear that song is of a weasel being serenaded.

Me and my sister used to like Dina Carroll songs, and we were convinced that one of the songs went, 'The Red-nosed man makes me feel like you do, the red-nosed man and his red-nosed dog' needless to say that actual lyrics are, 'There aint no man makes me feel like you do, there aint no man, aint no doubt'
I think our version is better

I use to think that the song "hang on Sloopy" was "Hang on Snoopy" You know,the cute little beagle from Peanuts. No wonder I had so much trouble picturing Snoopy in a red dress during the 2nd verse.

My brother and I used to believe the lyrics to a Paul Young song were: "Everytime you go away, you take a piece of meat with you". (it's actually: "you take a piece of ME with you") We found this so funny, it had us rolling around in tears for ages everytime it came on the radio.
