    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.

    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:

    "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.

    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:

    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." :wink: Huge peeve of mine.

    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:

    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!

    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."

    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!

    *****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.

    "revved up like a douche... another roner in the night." :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    ...

    These aren't the lyrics?? :blushing:

    Other classics that I STILL get teased for:

    "It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll" -ACDC
    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!

    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.
