Wrapped up like a douche, another roller in the night...

John Mayer - No such thing

"I just found out there's no such thing as a rail road"

Bryan Adams - Summer of 69

"Standing on your Momma's Porsche, you told me that you'd wait for ever..."

I also remember when I was a kid that my friend was singing Janie's Got a Gun. And she asked me if I liked it. I said it was a sad song. She asked me why. So, I explained it to her. She was really surprised and had no idea that was what the song was about. So, then a few days later she told me she had been thinking about how I knew what songs were about and she decided to try it. So, she said that she was listening to "Free Falling" by Tom Petty, and that she thinks it's about a guy jumping out of a plane. So, I explained that was too literal and it was actually about a guy that broke up with his girlfriend. She was like, "Wow, you are good at that!" Lol

Oh, Sherrie, our love
Colds on, colds on.

Steve Perry

"I've got tourettes, I've got tourettes"

Kaiser Chiefs "I predict a riot"

even with knowing the title I still hear it the other way

Wrapped up like a deuce, nanana ruler in the night.

In my defense, I was like, 8, when this song came out....

So, I guess the guy's winning at dice? Or cards, maybe?

Does anybody know what the acutal lyrics are? lol

Rev'd up like a deuce.....
The "rev" part is about accelerating an engine, increasing the revolutions, making it go faster
The "deuce" part refers to a very popular hot rod, a 1932 Ford, commonly called a 'deuce' or a 'deuce coupe' because of the number 2 in its year of manufacture. Like in the Beach Boys song "Little Deuce Coupe"

Second line in the verse just says "another runner in the night", probably referring to cruising around in his 1932 Ford hot rod looking for some action.

Scus me, while I kiss this guy

Or

Hold me closer Tony Danza

Actually I used to hear it as "Hold me close I'm tired of dancing ..."

"There's a bathroom on the right"

I thought this for a very, very, very, very long time.

My family would have me sing this song at every holiday gathering. I thought they were appreciating my musical ability, but it turns out that was not the case. Lol.

I explained "Last Dance With Mary Jane" to all my friends when we were about 12. They really thought it was about a guy missing his girlfriend.

Also, a friend told me that she and her boyfriend had picked "Brick" by Ben Folds Five as "their" song. Her mind was blown when I explained what that song was really about.

And you come to me on a submarine, keep me warm in your love then you soft-lay leave...

Love the BeeGees and their reverence for The Beatles.

ETA: OP asked for interpretations of "Blinded by the Light," so I can add this: I had no freaking idea what those lyrics were, so I interpreted it all as mostly Springsteen on acid. (I'm from PA, so I knew it was a Springsteen song...from an early age, I had the greatness of Bruce drilled into my skull...)

Someone other than The Boss tried to cover this song?

:laugh:

excuse me while i kiss this guy!

My dad always thought the song went 'and I can seee youuuu, your brass tits shinin' in the sun...'

Sorry just can't stop, thought of another one. When my aunt and uncle were dating my uncle swore up and down that Billy Idol was singing 'How's about a date' instead of 'eyes without a face'

I love the Stones' classic

I'll be your pizza burnin'

I can't wash the cat... no oooh no... no shampoo...

Hall and Oats "I cant go for that"... hehehehe

Also, I know most people confuse the line "Hold me closer, tiny dancer" with "Hold me closer, Tony Danza." But am I really the only one who heard "The words she knows, the tune she hums" as "The words she knows, the Jews and Huns"? Am I alone? Please tell me I'm not...

I'm sure you aren't alone, among history majors.
