I have a friend who thought 'The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight' by REM went 'calling Cheryl Baker up' when it's actually 'call me when you wake her up'
He also thought the line 'the Sharif don't like it' in 'Rock the Casbah' by the Clash went 'Charlene is unlikely'. |

"Bohemian rhapsody..Instead of "spare him his life from this monstrosity" I always thought it was Spare him his life from his pork sausages. Well it sounds like that.  "
Haha!! When I was little I used to think this too! |

For ages I was singing.
Angry to red. Angry to red.
Instead it should be.
I predict a riot........
Listen to song, anger eee to red fits.
This was when the song first came out. |

When I was a kid I thought the lyric was "killing me softly with mint sauce" instead of "with his song" dunno where I got that idea but still makes me giggle.  |

Ella Fitzgerald singing A Fine Romance; we should be like two clams in a dish of chowder. My daughter thought it was two clams in a disco cellar. |

Cyprus Hill..
You all know the song..
I confused the lyrics with "When the shit comes down you better be ready"
I used to walk around the house when I was a kid singing it like that ^
My mum heard it once and washed my mouth out with soap.  |

Advert? I remember listening to it at school on Radio 1 ("247 Radio 1") on an incredibly cheap transistor radio which had tiny speakers that sounded as wooly as hell coupled with knackered batteries you had put on a radiator to warm them up to persuade some more charge out of and all helped by that wonderfully crisp(!) Medium Wave reception that was so crap in Poole And Bournemouth they had to give us our own transmitter which was attatched to a rubbish plant (  ) No wonder we got the lyrics all wrong! |

and.. the line "Me Ears Are Alight" reminded me that I thought the line was "The Inrfared Eyes"... Anyway, then for the life of me I couldn't remember the name of the song or who did it. So I Googles 'me ears are alight' and got lists of different misinterpretations (had to look that word up  ) in that one song! Anyway this one made me chuckle:
"Israelites"
Original Lyrics:
Get up in the morning, slaving for bread, sir
So that every mouth can be fed
Poor me, the Israelite.
.
Misheard Lyrics:
Get up in the morning, ache in me head, sir
Taste in me mouth like a parrot that's dead
Ooh, ooh, me ears are alight.

OMG I love this thread.
Men at work. 'He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich'
My bloke does not believe he says that. He cant say what he thinks it is, but he's defiant its not a vegemite sandwich!
He's the second bloke I've lived with whom I've had the same argument. |

Alicia Keys - New York
Concrete jungle where (wet)dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These streets(sheets)will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it from New York, New York, New York!
This one always makes me chuckle

Dire Straits: Money For Nothing- Money for nothin' and chips for free
Madonna: Like a Virgin- Like a virgin touched for the thirty-first time.
Toto: Africa- There's nothing that a hundred men on Mars could ever do.
Jimi Hendrix: Purple Haze- 'Scuse me, while I kiss this guy.
Loads of Rolling Stones ones I have been singing wrong for years!
Maybe I need my ears syringed |

Been arguing with the daughter all summer up until a few weeks ago.
Every x factor advert we would argue the following:
Her: Take me to the rhythm to pray
Me: No ya numpty its take me to the river as next line she's on about washing some kind of shit away.
I had to google it but I was correct - of course |

Tori amos,professional widow, Armand van helden remix.
Sounds like she's saying " he's got a big dick".
My sister in law was convinced they were the words and would sing it out loud. |
