    When I was young and Kenny Rogers sang Lucille, he said "Four hungry children and the crops in the field" and I always pictured four hundred kids standing in a corn field...but in my defense, i was six!!! lol

    I always thought it said "four hundred children".
    There's a site on YouTube where someone tries to interpret Pearl Jam lyrics. OMG; it's hysterical!

    Eddie Vedder was once asked about The lyrics to Yellow Led Better. He said something along the lines of " "Wait...you mean there's lyrics?"

    Eta correct quote.

    Not a song, but an old limerick --- "Jimmy crapped corn, and I don't care".

    Why should I care if Jimmy crapped corn. Maybe he shouldn't eat corn.

    :laugh: :laugh:

    My mom had one that still kills me to this day. Instead of "I'm your Venus, I'm your fire. Your desire..." She thought it was "I'm your fetus, I'm your father. Your desire." HAHAHAHAHA!!! That's messed up, right there!

    There is a line in "sexy and I know it" that my daughter sings as "I've got rashes in my pants, cause I ain't afraid to show it" instead of "passion in my pants, and I ain't afraid to show it"...... Nobody ever correct her...... I want her to firmly believe her version for the next 20 years.

    Ok...I"m sure everyone out there has thought lyrics of a song were different...and then someone called you out on them?

    For example...my most notorious one is Whitesnake's "Here I go Again"...I always sang "Like a TWISTER, I was born to walk alone!".. until hubs told me "twisters don't walk".

    Wait..it isn't Twister?? What is it?!!?! LMao!

    My favorite misheard/unintelligible song of all time: Yellow Ledbetter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLd22ha_-VU

    The correct lyrics are pretty deep. But I couldn't listen to a live version of the song all the way through because he didn't mumble enough. I couldn't substitute whichever words I wanted.
