ninelives Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 For years I was convinced the line from Bohemian Rhapsody was: I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me He's just a poor boy from a poor family Spare him his life from his own sauce of tea Actual lyrics: But I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me He's just a poor boy from a poor family Spare him his life from this monstrosity It took my friend and I singing it and her hysteria over what I thought, to finally correct it. Okay so even now I still am drawn to singing it my way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay so even now I still am drawn to singing it my way Many years ago Radio 1 DJ Noel Edmonds used to have a "misheard lyrics" section on his breakfast show. Ever since then Bohemian Rhapsody has had the lines "Is this the real life, is this just Battersea?" and "Spare him his life from these pork sausages" for me.

eskimoblueday Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Not misunderstood by me, but by my mother: The first time she heard The Who's "Eminance Front" she asked me, "What did he say? Living in trunks?" She also misunderstood Dire Straights' "Money for Nothing." The line "maybe get a blister on your thumb" she thought was "maybe get a pistol up your bum." And no, I'm not making that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
