'Scuse me while I kiss this guy..... misheard song lyrics

[BuckNaked]

This thread reminds me of when DS was learning the Our Father in kindergarten.

He started it out "Our Father whose art's in heaven, Halloween be thy name..."

In the movie Harry Potter 3, at the beginning when the choir is singing "Double, Double, Toil and Trouble," DD-now-13 thought they were singing, "Double, Double, Toilet trouble, something wicked this way comes!"

Don't want to think about the wicked thing that could have been coming out of that toilet!

OMG..I think I just peed my pants.

You know that John Mellencamp song that goes, "When I fight authority, authority always wins"? Well, a friend of mine thought it was, "When I fight with Dorothy, Dorothy always wins." Her mother's name was Dorothy.

My youngest DD is terrible with lyrics. She was listening to Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar on Me", and the part that goes, "Come on, fire me up", she thought it was, "Come on and fatten me up".

My best friend in high school had a SCREAMING fight over this.

Careless Whispers by Wham. I was singing "...guilty feet have got no rythm"

She insisted it was "guilty feelings" because how can feet be guilty? OMG...I remember we were screaming at each other. I do believe I was correct.

I just saw an old episode of King of Queens. Carrie and Doug were coming back from Deacon and Kelly's baby's Christening. They agree the Reverend was pretty cool (baout them switching God parents in the middle of the ceremony) Doug said it reminded him of the old Neil Diamond song "Reverend in Blue Jeans.....

Ahh I think I have found a thread that I can relate to. I mishear song lyrics all the time!!!

The most famous example that my family always bring up was from a Jackie Wilson song that we used to hear on car journies (you know how it is; dad's and their old music. Why, I remember each song by Meat Loaf on my dad's CD in their PRECISE ORDER!!! No clue what the songs are called though.. ) all the time. I was in a bad mood; I wonder if that's why I thought it was what I thought it was..

The line was "That's Why I love you so". I heard it as "XY The world is Suck"..

I submitted some of these to www.amiright.com because they weren't already there.

Steve Winwood, "Make me a higher love": Bring me a hollow log
Men At Work, "It's A Mistake": It's Honest Abe
10cc, "The Things We Do for Love", the line is "And you're looking for the answer in her eyes", the misheard one is "And you're looking, for the ants are in her eyes"
Michael Jackson, "Billie Jean": for "But the kid is not my son", "But the Jedi's not my son"
Elton John, "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" the line is "What do you think you're doing, I heard you shot down the plane" the misheard one is "What do you think you're doing, I heard you shot Don McLean"

The song (I think it was by the Eagles), "There's gonna be a heartache tonight", my friends and I thought it was, "There's gonna be a party tonight."

My 4yr old son thinks that "Call Me When You're Sober" by Evanescence
is "Call Me When You're Silver."

 

[tarmand]

I thought it was "big ol' Jed had a light on".

Me too!

For any of the Duranies that might be out on this thread, there is a remix of "Wild Boys" where John Taylor is saying one line that is definately misheard. The actual line is (and this is straight from JT) "Stomp your feet". What is sounds like, "Comb your face."

I didn't figure this one out until I saw them in concert in '05 and Simon got everyone chanting "Stomp your feet, feet, feet!" Then the light dawned...

"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille. Four hundred children, and a crotch that won't heal . . . . .:

Oh here's another one. Joni Mitchell; Big Yellow Taxi.

"They've Paved Paradise and Put up a Parking Lot" <-> "A pair of brown eyes, some beer and a parking lot"

 

[Poohbear123]

Had a friend who thought the song "Its Magic" was "Its my d***!" I have no idea why, but she called her up saying "YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS NEW SONG, PUT IT ON NOW."

"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille. Four hundred children, and a crotch that won't heal . . . . .:

Thank god I wasn't drinking anything!

I thought of you when I posted. Figured you might get a kick out of that one .

"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille. Four hundred children, and a crotch that won't heal . . . . .:

That was a good one!

Heh. I heard that song this morning and I was going to post about it. WTH? What ARE the lyrics? Wrapped up like a deuce? What's a deuce? And why is it wrapped up? I had to turn the song off so my kids wouldn't ask me what a douche is, or as he sings it "dooosh."

Don't know if anyone answered yet, but a Deuce is a 2 dollar bill.

My favorites are from my mom.

She thought "return to sender" was "return to Zemba" and figured that Zemba was a place in Africa. This was when she was growing up, yet still hilarious!!

Also, the lyric "I've got my mind set on you" she thought was "I got my say on you" and having your say on someone meant you were dating them.
