music: misheard lyrics

I thought "We built this cioty on rock n' roll" said.. "We milked this city" and I even imagined a rock group in a high school getting flooded with milk. :| Yes, I know.

I use to think the lyrics to Kenny Rogers song Lucille was......You picked a fine time to leave me lucille, with 400 children.... I was like 6....i didn't understand the "concept" of 400 children, or I might have thought twice about it.

I always thought up until recently, that the Oak Ridge Boys song, "Elvira" said "Hell Fire-Up". I thought this was somekind of song to make you go to church to keep from hell's flames firing up on you.

In the song 'you sexy thing' by Hot Chocolate, I used to think that the opening line 'I believe in miracles' was actually 'I believe in Michael' and I often wondered why Errol Brown & Co were singing about a bloke called Michael who was apparently a very 'sexy thing' hehe

When the song "He Loves U Not" by Dream came out, I thought the line "you can flurt your pretty eyes" was "you can clutch your pretty eyes."

I thought "that's GOTTA hurt."

In a country song by Crystal Gale that had a line in it that said "Don't it make my brown eyes blue", my Dad and I would sing, "Doughnuts make my brown eyes blue."

my mom loves Bette Midler and so she would always play her CD with the song "Chapel of Love" when i was younger. i thought for my entire childhood that "we're going to the chapel and we're gonna get married" was actually "we're going to the jack-o-lantern, gonna get married"

I used to believe…

billy joels "for the longest time" song.as a child till i was about maybe 10 years old, i thought the lyrics where "father long-legs time". i used to always play with those father-long-leg spiders(those orange dots with legs)lol.

I woke up this morning, and the radio started playing "Bad" by Michael Jackson. I suddenly realized what the first two lines were:
"Your butt is mine.
You're 8 years, right?"

When I was in grade 2 my french immersion class had to sing "o Canada" in french every morning. I was supposed to sing "Car ton bras sait porter l'épée...." ("because you know how to carry a sword") but i always said "Carton bas et rose, le poupée..." which really means "Low pink carton, the doll.." I never knew why a doll had helped in founding our country. I assumed that the first Canadian flag had been drawn on a big piece of pink carton. I only found out i had been saying it wrong in grade 7.

A couple years ago my brother was singing the AC/DC song "Dirty Deeds" and instead of saying, dirty deeds and there done dirt cheap, he said, dirty deeds and the dunder jig.

i used to think the lyrics to aretha franklins Respect went "R-e-s-p-e-c-t take out the e-c-t" the real words are "r-e-s-p-e-c-t take care, TBC." Respect without the ect is resp, and i was going around like, "what's resp?" and i finally cleared that up by looking it up on google.

i've been a Fall Out Boy fan for a couple of years now. which is why i was kind of surprised when i first heard Sugar We're Going Down. i could have sworn it said "take aim at my shelf, take back what you shed." and of course, the ever-popular "we're going down town in a luleelarah. and sugah, we're going down singing. i'll be your number bun with a bullet. a lonely dark cop that's cocking and pulling."
i was wondering why Peter Wentz had changed his writing style so much...

This is more of a misREAD lyric, but recently we had to sing Bowie's Changes for school and we were given song words to it. When we were practising, the teacher was standing right next to our table when I misread the first line of the second verse and belted out to the rest of the class
"I watched the nipples change their size"
Instead of
"I watched the ripples change their size"
It was embarassing. Very embarassing.

when i first heard "i'm a slave" by britney spears i thought she was saying "i'm a snail forever"

in sting's / the police's song ''roxanne''. I thaught that it was ''rock sand''
