Im not exactly sure who sings that song but it goes "im blue da ba dee da ba..." (u know that one) well any way i thought that guy was gay and he was singing "Im blue and im in need of a guy" and my friend thought it was "im blue if i was green i would die" we argued for ages!
When my little sister was about 5 she would always sing..."baby i need your lovin' stuck in the hole of the muffin" instead of baby i need your lovin got to have all your lovin. She was so cute because she would always run around asking how you could get stuck in the hole of a muffin and that it would have to be a HUGE muffin.

When I first heard Matt Monro's song "Born Free," I thought he was singing "Porn Free."

FOR YEARS, until I was maybe 14, I thought "Lord, I was born a ramblin man" was Lord I was born on Grand Manan (my hometown)

My best friend still believes that the Rolling Stones were singing "I'll never be your big suburban" instead of "I'll never be your beast of burden".
In the song "hey ya" by Outkast i thought the lyrics "lend me some sugar, i am your neighbor" were "lend me some sugar, i am your savior!"
I always thought to myslef... c'mon, just give him the stupid sugar. After all he DID save you.
Someone I knew in school thought the lines to the Rolling Stones song "Shattered" were, "Don't you know the prime rate's going up, up, up, up, UP?" instead of the "crime rate." He thought it was about being a stockbroker.
When I was little I loved that show Fraggle Rock..and at the end of the theme song, on of the Fraggle's says, "Down at Fraggle Rock!" And little me thought it was "Damn it Fraggle Rock!" Yeah...I got in trouble for that one...
I've heard many rumors about people doing covers of songs and butchering the lyrics. Here are some I've come across:
The ever-so-popular "Excuse me while I kiss this guy" ("Excuse me while I kiss the sky"--Jimi Hendrix)
"Baking Carrot Biscuits" ("Taking Care of Business"--Bachman-Turner Overdrive)
"Last night I dreamt of some bagels" ("Last night I dreamt of San Pedro"--Madonna)
"I've got shoes; they're made of plywood" ("I've got chills; they're multiplying"--Grease)
I know I'm not alone with this one:
No matter how many times I listen to "Help Me Rhonda," by the Beach Boys, I still hear the same strange phrase at the beginning:
"Well since she put me down, there's been owls pukin' in my bed."
I just looked up the lyrics and found out they're actually: "Well since she put me down I’ve been out doin’ in my head."
HUH?! That makes even less sense! I'm going to stick with my version.

I'm Blue (if I was green I would die...)
[I'm blue, da ba dee, da ba di.]
Hold me closer, Tony Danza.
Kill hitch-hikers on the highway.

"Who's the Boss," is what you say.
i thaught the michael jackson song billy jean song said Janet's not my son
I used to think that the song "My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean" was really "My Body Lies Over the Ocean."
My buddy and I used to believe that the National Anthem asked "Jose, can you see?" They sang it at baseball games so we thought it was about the baseball player Jose Conseco. And yes, we thought Jose Conseco was blind.
I used to think that in the song Spanish Train, Chris de Burgh said, His family were dying, melting prayers before he died.
I knew this didn't make sense, but I had no clue what else it might be, certainly not, knelt in prayer.
I believed that the Blue song "All rise" went "1 for the money and the free rides, 2 for the lager cheques - denied!" (it's actually "2 for the lie that you denied")
I thought it was about someone trying to buy beer with a cheque, but it was rejected.
I used to believe that Pat Benatar's song "Hit Me with Your Best Shot" was called "Heavyweight Confession!" I thought it was about someone who REALLY had a lot to confess! If you listen to it when she sings the chorus she does blend the words together. I still like my version better, although I won't sing along to this song when it comes on the radio!
I used to believe…
That the Rolling Stone's sang "bye, bye Horses; Couldn't drag me away"
To me it seemed a bit woosy that such a rock group seemed to be so sentimental about loosing their horses.
It wasnt until later when i was singing it that my father kindly corrected me.
turns out it was "Wild Horses".
Mine is so much better.
For years I thought the first line of the song 'Word up' was 'bald headed ladies around the world' when it's actually 'Yo, pretty ladies around the world'.
