Misheard lyrics "hold that gorilla"

[StealthPolarBear]

I was describing a song to DH and this is what he heard me say. Any guesses?

My daughter when she was little was singing along to Michael Jackson.
"Hold me, like the river Jordan. I am a centipede, and you are my friend".

"I'm your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Robert, Robert Runcie"

I never knew that Lady Gaga had a thing about former archbishops.

I always wondered what a tromboleece was too

My friend always though Lady Gaga was singing about 'papa roxy' as in her grandad called roxy! She was genuinely shocked when she found out the truth!

Lifted up my boobs, going back to my roots. Yeah!

We are big Prince fans.
DD, when tiny, used to sing along with her own versions.
My favourite was ‘I get Cheerios, whenever you’re near’
Can’t sing the proper version any more.

What is it if it’s not “Don’t be afraid to catch fish” then?!

It's "don't be afraid to catch feels". As in, feelings. Quite how you "catch feels" I'm not sure. Catching fish would be easier I think.

Catching fish makes a lot more sense. I'm sticking with my version 🐟

Coincidence- Heard someone on the radio today talking about mishearings of lyrics. They mentioned The Cheese Scone song - and then the interviewer played Hall and Oates singing ‘ She’s Gone ‘ Absolutely was ‘ Cheese Scone’ . I will never unhear that .

Dyslexics on Fire.

My love has got no money, he's got his tambourines.

Give it up now, the Vauxhall brothers.

I'm the only one that thought my love has got no money he's got his trampolines... And the image that brought

Christ on the subway
Shallow

It was a bit of an eye-opener when I bought a Madonna CD as a student for a bit of nostalgia and I realised for the first time that she didn't have a song called "Poppadom Street" .

I sing all sort of nonsense, but a memorable one was from DD singing 'wowowowowowo' (It was womaniser by Britney Spears)
Funnily enough, when we got to the till and she was bouncing up to talk to the man at the counter, she quite brilliantly enounced WOMANISER.
She was 2.

I apologised to the man and said 'oh it must have come on the radio in the car'. Meanwhile, my 2 year old traitor is singing WOMANISER WOMANISER for all to hear in Lidl. In fairness to her, she could fairly belt out a tune.
Trying to distract with Twinkle twinkle had zero effect.
The little shite.

I have one that I still don't know what I'm singing but it's from Sex on Fire

Lay where you're laying
Don't make a sound
I know they're watching
They're watching
THE DIDDLY DAYS............. (must google what the diddly days are).

@PodgeBod I'm convinced they are the real lyrics too! #GoJetters

Chop the goolie, Island breeze, la isla Bonita....

Madonna

Sue Lawley, Sue Lawley....

My favourite one by The Police.

I always thought that song at the end of dirty dancing, The Time of my Life, said "you're the one thing, I can't get in the pub"

Not misheard but I always sing 'Corned Beef' to Blondie's Call Me.

@StarLive23 those ARE the lyrics, no?

I'm 34 years old, and have thought it was "I can't get in the pub" for my whole life!

FFS, I'm an eejit!

my love has got no money, he's got his tromboleece🎺

😂

smellslikemiddleagespirit I pictured a man with no money who is happy to go busking with his tromboleece for a few pennies. Thought it was an unusual song
