When I first heard Desmond Dekker and the Aces sing the Isrealite I thought he was singing Oh Oh me ears are alight. It was only after quite a few times listening to it that I realised it was Poor me, The Isrealite.
Which lyrics have you mistakenly heard? And please do not just post a list pulled from the Web. I want to know your own.

Suffragette City - David Bowie, for years I though it said, The smell of fat chicks just put my spine out of place when in reality it says This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place :D Reply #82. Feb 15 09, 11:37 AM |

In Guns N' Roses' "You Could Be Mine" I always thought he was singing: "And you can take the stinking sofa, but it's more than I can stand" in reality: "And you can take the pity so far, but it's more than I can stand" Reply #83. Feb 15 09, 1:31 PM |

A couple of people I know heard "It's only sodomy" while listening to Click Click Boom by Saliva. Real lyrics: "It's all inside of me." wow. Reply #84. Feb 16 09, 11:31 AM |

The Eagles -- "Take it Easy" I lost a bet with my wife on this song - I swore that the Eagles sang "It's a girl my lord, in a bright red Ford...." when they really sang "It's a girl my lord in a flat bed Ford...." Reply #85. Feb 16 09, 10:21 PM |

Viva La Vida - Coldplay Misheard Lyrics: 1. And I discovered that my cats will stand on pills of hills and pills of sand. 2. Roman church choirs are singing. 3. Be my mirror, my sword, my sheild, the missions in a far room field. Real Lyrics: 1. And I discovered the my castle stands upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand. 2. Roman calvary choirs are singing. 3. Be my mirror, my sword, my sheild, the missionaries in a foreign field. Reply #87. Mar 16 09, 3:25 PM |

Kings Of leon - Four Kicks: My version: 1. Hot mint don't take no noise. 2. This fatty is off the radar. Real Lyrics: 1. Huffman don't take no nonsense 2. This party is overrated (If you listen to the song my version actually does sound a bit like what i'm saying) Reply #88. Mar 16 09, 3:37 PM |

A song I listened to said " I'm no good " but I thought that it said "i'm no god". Reply #89. Mar 19 09, 10:01 PM |

Just about any song with Mick Jagger, he is a great vocalist, but as my exasperated music teacher said to my poor mother on many occasion "his intonation leaves much to be desired" lol. Reply #90. Mar 22 09, 10:19 AM |

Seal: a kiss by a rose on the brain. Although a kiss by a rose on the gray doesn't make much sense either. And the hymn Immortal, Invincible will always be Immortal, Impossible after trying to learn a difficult arrangement for handbells. Reply #93. Jun 26 09, 7:45 PM |

There are so many times I've misheard lyrics that it isn't even funny. Since I am currently listening to Motown Philly by Boyz II Men I'll post a part I misheard for a long time. I always thought they were singing this: Doing a little east coast swine (I always wondered what swine had to do with the song) They were actually singing this: Doing a little east coast swing Reply #94.

Hey blazerfan, don't feel bad. I once asked a friend what a " dunder chief " was. He looked at me like I was crazy. And then there was that song by Veruca Salt " Seether ". I thought the first couple of times that I heard it she was saying " can't fight this either " instead of " can't fight the seether ". Reply #96. Jul 20 09, 12:28 PM |

Neither of these are mine personally, but both made me laugh a lot. The first is a friend who for years was singing The Police's 'Message in a Bottle' as 'Message in a Bathtub' The second and by far my favourite ever was my cousin. The song is George Michael's FastLove. The line actually goes "..so why don't we make a little room, in my BMW babe' My cousin sang it as '...so why don't we make a little room, in my beat up double duvet' Priceless. Reply #97.

Ah! 'Message in a Bottle'! Sting sings: 'It's been a year since I wrote my note......' For weeks I had my wife (then my girlfriend!) believing he sang: 'It's been a year since I broke my nose.....' LOL! Reply #98. Aug 13 09, 1:43 PM |

When my daughter was small, her favourite cartoon was Snow White. I looked at the picture she'd drawn and was filled with maternal pride at the sheer detail. 'What's that?' 'The pig' 'The pig?' 'You know, 'With a shovel and a pig and a walking stick...' Reply #99. Aug 13 09, 2:02 PM |

I always thought Yes was singing "In and around the lake, mallards come out of the sky and they stand there", who knew it was mountains coming out of the sky? I also thought I heard "The music dance and sing" not "muses". mnbates, I can't stop lol when I think about "Rub a bums buns". Thank also to myrab51 for bringing it up. Reply #100.
