Your misheard lyrics

*AT-Man* · 08-30-2013, 07:33 AM

Which song lyrics have you heard wrong the first time or frequently? I have at least:

Volbeat - Lola Montez
(chorus)
"Murder she wrote. She was dead. ...

There are more but can't remember them atm, will post later.
Also, please no Wishmaster by Nightwish.

Blinded by the light
Wrapped up like a douche

When I was a kid, I thought Carole King sang, "And it's Kool Aid baby, now it's Kool Aid!"

OH YEAH!!!

*AT-Man* · 09-03-2013, 12:53 PM

Just remembered this one.

LMFAO - Party Rock Anthem
"Get up, get down. Put your hands on tombstone."

When I grow up, I wanna be famous, I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies.
When I grow up, I wanna see the world, drive nice cars, I wanna have boobies.

(When I Grow Up by The Pussycat Dolls)

It's really groupies and not boobies, but that's what I heard.

LOL!

Friends theme song:
"I'll be there for you, what's that big sausage for?"

*Discogod* · 09-05-2013, 04:27 AM

The Manic Street Preachers song "Removables" - one of the lines is "A bronze moth dies easily", but I'll never not hear it as "I bronze my thighs easily"...

*Icebot* · 09-05-2013, 11:25 AM

Manfred Mann: Blinded by the light: I heard "by the light" as Friday night.

Rolling Stones: Gimme Shelter: the lyrics "It's just a shout away" I heard as "It's just a shadow way".

I'm sure there's more that I forgot.

"The Future" by the Limousines
What I heard:
I wannna love; I wanna smile.
I don't need lunch I'm a simple child

Actual Lyrics:
I wanna love; I wanna smile. I don't need much I'm a simple child.

The only one I can think of is the old turtles theme song. Apparently, from what I've read, Raphael is cool, but crude.

To this day I still hear rude.

I know that's probably been said a thousand times, but I'm just saying.

Sophie Hawkins: **** I Wish I Was Your Lover

I heard it as Stand (or stance), I wish I Was Your Lover.

*AT-Man* · 09-06-2013, 07:53 PM

For some time I thought Van Halen's "Panama" was "Animal".
And that Ram Jam's "Black Betty" was "Black Medic".

*TurtleTitan97* · 09-06-2013, 07:56 PM

I always thought "Raphael is cool, but crude" was "Raphael is cool, but rude".

WhitefinDolphin · 09-06-2013, 09:12 PM

Share the Land by The Guess Who.

Every time they sing "Shake your Hand" and "Share the Land", I'm mishearing as "Shave your Head".

Another song I still mishear the lyrics too is Get Your Shine On by Florida Georgia Line.

Every time the sing "shine on", I'm mishearing the lyrics as "sat on" or "sad on".

*Guitar_Raph* · 09-08-2013, 08:27 PM

I thought he sang Ore-Ida hot potato (LOL)!

*Guitar_Raph* · 11-24-2013, 11:44 AM

Kidd Video's song, TLC. I nickname it BLT!

A LITTLE B-L-T (chica-chica-chica-chick)! FROM YOU TO ME. B-L-T, BACON, LETTUCE, TOMATO. A LITTLE B-L-T (chica-chica-chica-chick) FROM YOU TO ME. B-L-T, A LITTLE BACON, LETTUCE, TOMATO.

GIVE ME B, FOR BACON, OH SO CRISP! L, THE LETTUCE FROM A HEAD. GIVE ME T, TOMATO. RED, NOT GREEN PLEASE. B-L-T! ALL I NEED'S A LITTLE B-L-T (chica, chica, chica, chick).
