Has anyone here ever misheard lyrics? I know heaps of people who do and it makes me laugh because sometimes I don't know how they actually get what they are singing out of the actual words! :blink: I mean I do it too... even after I search the lyrics and read them over and over again:w00t:

Do you have any funny "misheard" lyrics?

Bohemian Rhaphsody - "Spare him his life from his warm sausages"

years ago there was a group called Nazareth I always thought they're song was "My wife Issica" when in fact it was "My white bicyle" ... I still prefer my lyrics!

lol - That literally made me "lol"

I have one. This one girl at school thinks she is a Green Day fan but thinks American Idiot is their debut album. So I asked her if she knew exactly what the "debut" album was about and she said Billie Joe :wallbash: So I told her how it was a story following the life of this guy called Jesus of Suburbia and before I could finish she goes "That song is too long" :blink: So I said, listen to it tonight and see the deeper meaning. The next day she is singing it...

Real version - On a steady diet of... soda-pop and ritalin

Her version - I have a pet dog... lost without a brain :shocking:

And it wasn't as a joke she was really serious. I could not believe it :shock:

REM's Sidewinder still sounds like it's saying "calling Cheryl Baker up" to me. I think it's supposed to be "call me when you try to wake her up".

The Bee Gees "and you come to me on a submarine".

Does anyone else remember the Maxell casette advert from years ago, with Desmond Dekker's "The Israelites"? The guy is holding up a flash card saying "Me Ear's Are Alight".

The Pretenders' "Brass in Pocket" has the line "Gonna use my arms, gonna use my sidestep" and I used to think it was "gonna use my sausage". :blink:

What's with this place and sausages!?

Here is another few which my sister and her friends make:

American Idiot - Real thing: And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
Their version: Everybody turn up your stereos

The next one is only my sister:

Holiday - Real thing: Coming down like an Armageddon flame
Her version: Coming down like an auto-ma-gadget flame

WTF is an auto-ma-gadget? :blink:

lol yes! I cannot sing that song now without that line ... not that I sing it often, but I will now!

I can remember my friend used to sing along to Bon Jovi singing Living on Bread instead of Living on a Prayer!

My boys have just got heavily into Elvis, and I overheard them this morning giving us a rendition of Hound Dog....with the line

'They said you was Hercules but that was just a lie' instead of High Class......:laugh: :laugh:

I thought Sidewinder was 'Callin' Jamaica'

And I've just found out that the Kaiser Chiefs 'I could have Tourette's', is in fact 'I predict a riot' :blush:

Ha ha I think I prefer your version.....lol

Mr. Ms is the consumate aduterator of all lyrics!!! I will have to ride with him and report back as I can't remember the infinite atrosities to songs/singers he's made....but they're hysterical when he does it!!:wacko:

Oh, I used to know lots of those "silly words" but I can't think of any now except the old one "tonight I sellotape my gloves to you" should be "tonight I celebrate my love for you" :laugh:

When I first heard G4 sing "I'm a creep" I thought they were saying "I'm a creep, I'm a "widow" but that didn't sound right so I had to look up the lyrics to find out that it's "weirdo" (and I also found out that the original says I'm a F*****g weirdo so I'm not surprised that they missed that bit out).

Didn't the Police used to sing about Sue Lawley?

ok, he did it....."Photogragh" by Nickleback has the lyric "...this is where I grew up, I think the present owner fixed it up...", he swears it's "....I think the President oughta fix it up....". First, the group is Canadian and don't have Presidents, Second, well it's WRONG!! Even when I showed him, he said it was a misprint!:mad2:

I agree, it does sound like tourettes!

IN that song that goes "Ain't that a shame, my tears felt like rain", for a while I though it was "Ain't that a shame, my t*ts felt like rain!" :nerd:

The Sugar Babes, in the chorus they are singing...

"Push the button and let me know, before I get the wrong idea and go...."

I always think they just love Saturday morning tv and are singing...

"Push the button and let me know, before I get the wrong I Dick and Dom..."

:w00t:

"If you're ready to bop me boy you better push the button and let me know..."
