example. A friend always used to think Will Smith was singing "Get a chicken with it", rather than "Gettin Jiggy with it"

Any other hearing mistakes?

Country Road take me home, I always thought it was Country Rose
Never really thought about it making any sense just sang along ( wrong LOL)

I swear I was in my 20's before I even new Led Zepplin was the name of the Band - again I thought it was the lead singers name. 
I'm a bit twitty at times , my daughter says it makes me Interesting

The headlines the next day was about the bridge opening and the report stated in part “….and after cutting the ribbon, her Majesty Queen Victoria pissed over the bridge…..”  I understand from one who was there as one of the Palace liaison with the press, said her Majesty was not amused and the Times spent a lot of both time and energy in apologizing to her Majesty.. A senior editor was out of employment following this..  This is not just a story; somewhere in my archives locked away is a copy of the entire Timers in which this was published…..

Status: offline 		Oh, there are a lot of those....some that come to mind are:

Elton John's "Benny and the Jets"....can't understand half those lyrics, but one that stands out is "She's got electric boobs, a mohair suit...."

Creedence Clearwater Revival's  "There's a Bathroom on the Right"

And I taught my kids that Jimmy Buffett's song was "Why Don't We Get Drunk and Scream!?

I've watched South Park for 8 years now and still can't understand the lyrics.

Status: offline 		Oh people, people....you haven't invented anything.  The joy of misheard lyrics is well documented.  Its called a "Mondegreen".  For history, etc. see this: 
http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~wilkins/writing/Resources/essays/mondegreens.html

The beauty of a real mondegreen is it has to be actually something someone thought a song says. And they usually are humiliated beyond belief when they tell you what they thought they heard.

My favorites?  

From Creedence: Bad Moon 'Rising.   "There's a bathroom on the right" (There's a bad moon on the rise)

Two great Mick Jagger mondegreens (you KNOW the right lyrics, right?):

     "I'll never leave your pizza burning..."
     "I see a Renoir and I want to paint its back"

Lennon and McCartney aren't immune:  "The girl with colitis goes by..." (the poor dear!)  (Its "The girl with kalideoscope eyes") if you've been on Mars for the past 30 some years.

AND probably my favorite, from Jimi -- puts his style in a whole new light:

"EXCUSE ME, while I kiss this guy..."    (Should be "Excuse me, while I kiss the sky")  (heavy guitar riff).

Have fun, y'all

Blinded by the light
Wrapped up like a dude
She's a roamer in the night

which should be:

Blinded by the light
wrapped up like a deuce
Another runner in the night

Status: offline 		*giggles softly* girl is a dj on an internet radio station and the song "closer" by N.I.N. she thought was just that, but she soon found out it wasn't that at all, she has since learned it's "wanna F*ck You like an animal* where she got the title and lyrics mixed up is so beyond her.

that and the song, discovery channel is actually bad touch .......... girl will figure this out eventually but for now she has fun with them and has been told to learn to close her mic when she dj's cause she sometimes forgets and leaves it open so the listeners get to hear her sing. They don't complain just say next time close it so we can hear the songs........LOL


think part of the lyrics for discovery channel aka bad touch is

"come on baby
let's do it
like they do
on the discovery channel."

ok so girl is warped, twisted and sick at the best of times but she can at least laugh at herself lol

Blessed Be
