OP thanks for posting this thread, I am laughing so hard reading these!!!0

I used to think the song lyrics "Everytime you go away take a piece of me with you " were "Everytime you go away take a piece of meat with you" of course I was like 8.
My friend thought the lyrics " There's a bad moon on the rise" was "There's a bathroom on the right" haha I like that one
LOL!! I was just going to post the CCR lyrics you mentioned. That's always been one of my favorites. :bigsmile:
my dad, who loves CCR, sings "bathroom on the right" just to be funny. I knew a guy years ago who seriously thought Guns n Roses "Paradise City" was "Prairie Dog City" and I thought he was kidding and I laughed and he got mad cuz he thought I was making fun of him!0 -
My ex thought In a Godda Da vida was In the Garden of Eden. Took me days to convince him otherwise haha0
-
The Beatles "Paperback Writer" I always misheard as "Take the back right turn" to the point where my dad refers to the song as "Take the Back Right Turn"
Also, how has no one mentioned Jimi Hendrix's Purple Haze " Scuze me while I kiss the sky" being misheard as "Scuze me while I kiss this guy?" That's a classic!0 -
I had a friend in college who misheard the lyrics to the Bob Marley song Don't Rock The Boat
Real lyric:
Don't rock my boat
'cause I don't want my boat to be rockin anyhow
What he heard:
Don't rock my balls
'cause I don't want my balls to be rockin' anyhow.0 -
Ian Longo, Jay Wainwright & Craig Smart sing a song called "One Life Stand"...and thats what the chorus is, but it basically sounds like 'all i ever wanted was a one night stand'...even if you listen really close, people swear its 'one night stand'.
I used to sing that to my ex to be funny. She didn't think it was...0 -
"With a purple Operator" (purple umbrella - Livin' Lovin' Maid - Led Zeppelin)
In High School, that song "push it" was popular and my friend's dad thought they were saying "horse ****"0 -

That's the title of a book acount misheard song lyrics. I have it somewhere at home, and its hilarious!0 -
When I was little, the movie Grease was released. Not sure why my mother allowed me to even sing these lyrics.
Correct Lyrics:
Greased Lightnin', go Greased Lightnin'
You are supreme
The chicks'll cream
For Greased Lightnin'
Go go go go go go go go
What I heard:
"The chicks agree"0 -
AC/DC - dirty deeds done dirt cheap
I always thought it said dirty deeds and the thunder chief
HAHAHA that's what I thought for the longest time :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:0 -
John Cougar Melloncamp
"Sucking on chili dogs, outside the Tastee Free-eze..."
Me
"Sucking on chili dogs, outside it tastes free-ee.."
**I moved to Texas 7 years ago and saw a sign for Tastee Freeze...it clicked, now it makes sense...LOL0 -

This isn't lyrics, but it's still funny
my boyfriend was playing Killzone 3 and one of the characters said "We're getting torn up!"
and I thought he said "We're getting porno!"
it made me giggle.0 -
Slipknot - Sulfur.
Even though I know the proper lyrics: "It took the Death of Hope to let you go"
Every time I listen to the song I still hear "I tote the tail the Pope to let you go"
:laugh: :laugh:

I can't stand her but this topic made me think of that old T Mobile commercial with Catherine Zeta Jones.
"Pour some shook up ramen" :laugh: :laugh:0 -
"revved up like a douche... another roner in the night." :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
that is the first song that came to my mind, too, but I thought it was "wrapped up like a douche under the roller in the night."
I didn't understand why someone would wrap a douche and put it under a roller, and wasn't sure if it was a hair roller or paint roller.0 -
When I was a kid
the Journey song "open arms"
I thought it was about frosty the snowman.
"frosty the snowman in open arms" it made no sense.
OH OH ....my daughter and I sing it "And now I run to you with BROKEN arms!!!" We LOL and she is 24 now :laugh:0 -
99 Red Balloons. First line. "You and I in a little toy shop..."
I always thought it was "You and I and a little dachshund." I just pictured a cute couple with a wiener dog. :laugh:
And I should at least get credit for knowing it's pronounced "dox-hund," and not "dash-hound."
Huge peeve of mine. 0 -
I am go thru a 'time' in my life right now. So I find myself changing the lyrics to songs to fit my mood, and get out some anger. Once my windows where open when I inserted a few words the lil ol lady next to me didn't like:blushing:
So now I have "Gone", "Mean" and "Your a ***** Girl" on my I pod................can play these instead:laugh:0 -
"Blinded by the liiiight! Wrapped up like a douche....." WTF?
I hear the same thing!!!
Line from Thriller: "you're out of time."
My daughter sings "you're out of chives."
hmm i had a reply but click post to early and now i got back to it don't remember what i was gonna say0 -

i was into guns and roses as a teenager. and my dad used to like to change the lyric of paradise city from where the girls are pretty , to where the girls have big titties.
pretty sure he did it just to drive me crazy0 -
I was having an oldies moment and listening to Wizzard - See My Baby Jive when my son comes in from school, hears the music, gives me a sideways glance and in a disgusted voice says "nice song mum!" puzzled I ask what he was on about and he replied "Why would anyone want to watch a baby die?!"
I havent listened to the song since without hearing his version!0 -
We Are the Champions:
real lyrics: "I've taken my bows, and my curtain calls..."
what I heard: "I've taken my bows, and my candy corn."0 -
My favorite is STP Interstate Lovesong "Feelin' like a ham and mustard shake" which is really "Feelin' like a hand in rusted shame". I told this one to my husband and now he's pissed because that is what he hears now instead of the "REAL" lyrics!
This happened to me with a different song. My friend Jennifer misunderstood the lyrics to Oh oh it's Magic by the Electric Light Orchestra. Ever since then I hear her version whenever I hear that song.
Actual lyrics: oh, oh, oh, it's magic. Never believe it's not so.
Misheard lyrics: oh, oh, oh, it's my d*ck. never believe it's not, yo!0 -
*****cat Dolls When I Grow Up
When they sing "I wanna have groupies" (sp?) I thought (and told my stepdaughter), they were saying "I wanna have boobies" :laugh: I like my way better than the actual lyrics.0 -

became
"It's a long way to the shop if you wanna a sausage roll" (thanks Dad!)
"She move in mysterious ways" - U2
became
"Shamu! The mysterious whale"
"You're where you should be all the time,
and when you're not you're with,
some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend, wife of a close friend" (... you're so vain) - Carly Simon
became
"You're where you should be all the time,
and when you're not you're with,
some underworld spy or the wife of a Postman, wife of a Postman"
The last one I actually sang out loud unwittingly and made my brother snort coke out his nose. Yeah... I'm bad with lyrics!0 -
Elton John Tiny Dance
Real Lyrics: The words she knows, the tune she hums
What I heard: The words, she knows the Jews and Huns.0 -
"revved up like a douche... another roner in the night." :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Yep, only I thought it said "wrapped up like a douche"
Also,
"Toys and things that come by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drug store lovin'
Hey little thing, let me light your CHEMICALS, cause Mama amamamamamamamama around here".....
Go figure.0
