Lines in Songs You Thought Were Right But Weren't!!

[two4ruff]

My husband swears the CCR song "Bad Moon on the Rise" is saying "Theres a bathroom on the right".

I thought the line from Bon Jovi's "Living on a Prayer" that says "take my hand, we'll make it, I swear" said "Take my hand, we're NAKED, I swear".

My son thought "Rock the Casbah"(sp?) was "Rock the Grandma".

Wouldn't you love to sing along with my family?

Break My Stride
by Matthew Wilder




Last night I had the strangest dream
I sailed away to China, in a little rowboat to find ya
And you said you had to get your laundry clean
Didn't want no one to hold you, what does that mean? And you said...

Ain't nothing gonna break my stride
Nobody gonna slow me down, oh no
I've got to keep on moving
Ain't nothing gonna break my stride
I'm running and I won't touch ground, oh no
I've got to keep on moving

You're on the road and now you pray it'll last
The road behind was rocky
But now you're feeling cocky
You look at me and you see your past
Is that the reason why you're running so fast? And you said...

[chorus]

Never let another girl like you work me over
Never let another girl like you drag me under
If I meet another girl like you I will tell him
Never want another girl like you have to say - hey!

[chorus etc.]

Ok, in Moving Out Billy Joel..

The true lyric is Across from the Medical Center...

I thought it was Its a mad placenta


(Don't Ask!)

Ok, my daughter just got home from school and is very excited because she is tracked out, so she is running around the house singing,

"cause she looks like a monkey and stinks like a bee..."

You guessed it, "She bangs!"

I'm thinking instead of a bad singing William Hung, I have a bad-lyric-singing William Hung--actually a whole family full of them!

Pour some shook up roman. I don't see how that would make sense to anyone

There's a part in YMCA that I swear says They have everything from a beer to a joint and what they're really saying is They have everything for young men to enjoy.

In Irene Cara's What a Feeling she says..."Take your passion and make it happen" I used to swear she was saying..."Take your pants off and make it happen"

 

[TSTEWARTFAN]

How about "Blinded by the Light"? The entire song! Both Bruces' version AND Manfred Man's Earth Bands' version. I constantly sang 'dressed up like a doushbag' for one part. I butchered the entire song. Still do. Like the guitar solos.

 

[Stepharoonie!]

I made two MAJOR mistakes with a song once.

There's a Hermits Herman's song called "There's A Kind Of Hush All Over The World". For years, I thought it was "There's a can of fish".

So, MY way of singing it was:
"There's a can of fish all over the world tonight
All over the world you can hear the sounds of lovers in love
You know what I mean..."

I was in the car singing it one day when my mom asked me what in the world I just said...so I sang about the can of fish again...and she about died laughing.

Then a few weeks ago, I mentioned this to someone saying it was a Beatle's song, and some DISers were getting ready to lynch me

I haven't read all of the thread yet......but here is mine....

Eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight, rising up to the challenge of our Rival.....

NOT Rising up to the challenge of our LAVA...what the heck did I know, I was young! LOL

My mom still makes fun of me for that one, she said when I was in the car with her and that would come on, I would sing that at the top of my lungs!

My nephew was about 5 and heard What a girl wants, by Christina Aguilara (SP?)

and instead of What a girl wants, what a girl needs...he would sing...
What a girl wants, what a girl eats...LOL

That is exactly what I thought it was, and so did EVERYONE else I have ever asked! Well, I just went to a song lyrics website and for the record, it's "Deuce," not the OTHER word we all thought it was!!!

 

[sunsprinkle24]

These are too funny! I am laughing my head off!

Theres a Kenny Chesney song, where he sings "the way that she looks with rice in her hair" and I thought for the longest time he said, "the way that she looks with her eyes in her hair" and I always thought that made no sense, but hey.....then one day I mentioned to my husband that was odd and he about died laughing!

 

[Virgo10]

There was a song by Bob Dylan called Lay, Lady, Lay. A friend of mine thought it was Lady of the Lake.

In the song Layla everytime they said that word I thought they were saying Hey Girl.

Then there's Louie, Louie but nobody's ever going to figure out what they're saying.
