Misheard Lyrics


Mona

Recommended Posts

Actual:

I get the feeling I could chase you clean on in the ball

And wind up staying pull off, put down strung out and stalled.

...is that what the lyrics are? Oh. Well. I've got a contribution, then:

I get the feeling I could chase you clean on in the farm,

and wind up staying put off, put down, strung out & stoned.

& not so much mishearing as being stupid, from Paul Simon's Mother & Child Reunion:

I can't for the life of me

Remember a sadder day

I always, always thought of that as Saturday, which boggled me entirely. I was singing it recently and it clicked. Promptly a felt a fool, as well.

I thought it WAS "this mellow fat chick." :bagoverhead:

I always thought it was "the smell of that chick just put my spine out of place"

Max Webster

Actual line was "Happiness is beginning to rise, from the streets up to Paradise Skies"

Often misheard as " My penis is beginning to rise"

Start Me Up - Rolling Stones

Actual lyric: You got me ticking gonna blow my top

What I heard: You got me licking like I'm Gorbachev

I've been hearing this song forever, and I only looked up the real lyrics about 20 mins. ago!

Well these weren't me, but I had LZ II on in the car a few days ago and from

What is and What Should Never Be

Actual lyrics: It only goes to show, that you will be mine, by taking our time

What my mum heard: It only goes to show, that you will do math, by taking our times

And what my friend Sam heard while listening to the same song:

Actual lyrics: Sail away, leave today, way up high in the sky.

What he heard: Sail away, leave today, butterflies in the sky

:rolleyes:

There is a song that they play on some commercial. I don't know what it is or who sings it, but the real words are "Secret Agent Man." I always hear it as "Secret ASIAN Man"

These are funny. I hope no one minds me sharing this though it's not my personal experience, but I found this website that posted a Facebook entry from a person who thought the Pat Benatar line "Hit me with your best shot" was "Hit me with your pet shark.":D

Lorde, Tennis Court:

What I hear:

Baby be the class clown

I'll be the beauty queen in Sears (haha!)

It's a new iPhone showing people how well we care :blink:

~~~~~~

The real lyrics:

Baby be the class clown
I'll be the beauty queen in tears
It's a new art form showing people how little we care

Led Zepp For your life

"had to pull away to save me"

I heard-"I had Napoleon to save me"

And "Down in the pits you go no lower, The next stop's underground"

I heard "she wanna picture of my bloodwork, next stop's Charlie Brown"

And to be honest I'm not a hundred percent sure that the "correct" lyrics I put are actually correct, I'm bloody AWFUL with lyrics. :P
