    I always thought Manfred Man was singing in "Blinded by the Light":
    Blinded by the light, revved up like a douche in the middle of the blight.

    But it was actually:
    Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night

    Recently, I heard Swedish House Mafia's "Don't you worry child" lyrics as

    "Jihad's got a plan for you...."

    instead of

    "See.... Heaven's got a plan for you........"



    Still cracks me up everytime I hear the song, even though I know the correct lyrics now.

    (My favorite hehe) Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love - "You called me a banana" - actual - "you cut me open and i"

    Bruno Mars - Grenade - "gave you ball-in-hand" - actual "gave you all I had"
    (I thought he was just really serious about playing 8-ball!)

    Sheryl Crowe - All I want to Do - "all I want to do is hooked on phonics" - actual "all I want to do is have some fun"

    Bahaha, I heard a variation of that:
    Blinded by the light, wrapped up like a douche, another rotor in the night!

    The first time I ever heard "Play That Funky Music" by Wild Cherry, I thought they were singing, "Play That F**kin Music". I had to do a double take...there was no WAY they would let that on the radio. But that's what it sounded like.

    I had that same thought when I heard "Renegades of Funk" by Rage against the Machine :laugh: It sounded like "Renegades of F**k"!

    Not really funny but I thought the lyric was:
    "Rhythm is a dancer, it's a source of passion" up until probably the beginning of this year
    Actual lyric is "Rhythm is a dancer, it's a soul's companion"

    "hold me close, young Tony Danza" instead of "hold me closer tiny dancer" Elton John . . . quoted by Phoebe on Friends; however, the funniest part is that I didn't know the correct song lyrics until after that episode!

    Hahahaha okay so listen to Sweet Nothing, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17ozSeGw-fY
    but when she sings "I'm living on such sweet NOTHING" replace "nothing" with "elephant!"

    Lmao it'll never sound the same again.

    Not sure how well know the song Reckless by Australian Crawl is outside of Australia but this misheard lyric always makes me giggle.

    Misheard: Yo throw down your buns, yo disco necklace
    Actual: So throw down your guns, don't be so reckless

    I once heard my coworker blasting U2 singing, "Someday, buddy, someday!"

    And not my mistake, but I looked up chords to play Titanium and someone had said the lyrics were

    You criticize, but all your bull is brick of shame (your bullets ricochet)
    Brick of shame, take your rain (Ricochet, take your aim)
