Misheard Lyrics

[Scorp]

Hey Folks,

How many of us often misheard the lyrics of a song? :listening:

I'll begin with:

1) Dido - White Flag:

The part of the lyrics when she says: Well I will go down with this ship, :titantic:
And I won't put my hands up and surrender.

What I thought I heard: "and I won't pull my eyes out and surrender" :eek:

2) The Rolling Stones - Start Me Up:

What I thought I heard: "Insomnia" instead of start me up :freak:

Share yours!

[Medusa]

!

"Jose Cuervo, you are a friend of mine!"

I heard it as:

"Homesick Werewolf, you are a dented lime"
:vampire:

[Mister Bent]

YouTube- Redbone - Come And Get Your Love

As a kid, I was sure the chorus was, "Carmen guitar love."

To this day I can't sing the right lyric.

[Linus]

YouTube- Elton John - Bennie and the Jets (Live in Edinburgh, 1976)

Elton John's Bennie and the Jets:

He says "electric boots". I always thought it was "electric boobs" :cracked:

My daughter, when she was a preschooler, sang, "Off we go, into the wild blue yonder. Flying pies, into the sky."

:bow:

[Jett]

YouTube- MISHEARD LYRICS - Manfred Mann - Blinded By The Light

[Lynn]

Isn't that correct? Actually, it's just, "Reverend Blue Jeans." Like Mr. Green Jeans. :D

I grew up in a conservative church where singing was huge. There was a hymn called "Bringing In The Sheaves", but as a child, my Mom told me I sang, "bringing in the sheets".....yes....I was a child in the days where my Mom hung our laundry on the line to dry....

It's a sweet memory......

[Eddie]

Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze

Real lyrics - "Excuse me while I kiss the sky"
Misheard lyrics - "Excuse me while I kiss this guy"

[Gemme]

I heard a song tonight that aptly fits in this thread, although I have no idea what band sings it. The title was something like Oyta or Goita or something alone those lines.

I have no idea what it was supposed to be but I definitely heard something about chocolate shakes, some guy being a prick and someone being a bitch and that was only in the chorus. :shocking:

Ours was "bringing in the cheese"

What a feeling.
Bein's believin'.
I can have it all, now I'm dancing for my life.

Take your passion
and make it happen

What I heard: "take your pants off, and make it happen":pointing:

[WILDCAT]

I LOVE THIS TOPIC!!!! Good idea!


The song DREAMS by Fleetwood Mac:

Thunder only happens when it's rainin'.
Players only love you when they're playin'.

SAY women, they will come and they will go.

__

Last line is where I BELTED OUT (quite proudly at the age of 18 with a carful of teenage kids that I was "houseparent" to...

GAY WOMEN, they will come and they will go...!
*I couldn't understand why I got the strangest look from this one girl - who had also been on my softball team while in high school!

OK, another song:

AC/DC Dirty Deeds.


Dirty deeds "done dirt cheap".

In MY gutter brain, I was SURE it was "dirty deeds, DOWN HER CHEEK"! And I sang this, this way FOR YEARS. No decades before I realized my "boo-boo".

Oops.

:giggle:
