Misheard lyrics "hold that gorilla"

[StealthPolarBear]

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

@SaskiaRembrandt lol, no - it's "monster" not "lobster"!

For La Isla Bonita I always heard “last night I slept with some dago’ instead of ‘`last night I dreamt of St Pedro’. After many years of hearing this I asked DH how come no-one had ever objected to this racist lyric. I think he’s still laughing now!

I like it when Ken Bruce plays that classic “slow, silly walking song.

No, it's Soul City Wookiee surely

Is it really "jealousy, turning sex into a scene"? I always thought it was "turning snakes into the sea" 

Nope. It's 'turning saints into the sea'

@youngfreeandnotsingle

Thank you.

"Who you gonna call...Those Bastards" made me giggle

Sorry if its been done before but i cba to rtwp. But Sue Lawley by the police always gets me... so lonley

ABBA - 'Take your teeth out tell me what's wrong' 😂

My absolute favourite is dh singing Queen . . .
'I'm a racing car passing by, like a lady's vagina!' 😂

Queen - Invisible man

Apparently they'll never get Caught, not cunt as I thought 🥺🤣

That’s brilliant, Madonna and Poppadom Street Relieved I’m not the only one who thought Sting was singing about Sue Lawley.

Just talking to my friend about this thread. For years she thought James were singing

Hose it down
Hose it down
It's down next to me

I’m another “shower the horse I’m done” hearer

And also daft punk get lucky I heard “what makes a Mexican lovely”

I very recently complained to my dd that “sweet buttercycle” was a stupid name for a song...

My lover's got no money, he's got his tongue released

Not misheard, but I've always enjoyed "last night you were in my room, now my bedsheets smell like poo" courtesy of DS

“My love has got no money, he’s got drunk police”

I ment lovers ffs fat fingers

Beck - "I'm a lizard, baby...so why don't you kill me?"

Misheard for "I'm a loser, baby..."

However, having looked up the lyrics in honour of this thread, the rest of the song is far more bizarre than my misheard lyric... "In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey...Dog food skulls with the beefcake panty hose..."

Yy to tromboleece and catch fish. "Catch feels", what does that even mean?

@decimalpoint @WineIsMyCarb I too have been singing about that infamous musical instrument, the trombelise! I've just googled this song in order to verify your claim to the contrary...and lo, I'm Mumsnet HORRIFIED to discover that, in fact, it is not a trombelise that the lover is blowing to free his desire! (Quite why I never thought to google this incredible freeing instrument of love before, I know not!) 🤷‍♀️ Gutted!

I'm gonna runter you ...

Bryan Adams.

Beezlebub has a devil for a son

Dues: Beck - "I'm a lizard, baby...so why don't you kill me?"

Misheard for "I'm a loser, baby..."

Right before that line, for years I sang “Soy a Neandertal” I thought that for some reason he chose the Spanish language to say “I’m a Neanderthal.”

Also the REM someone mentioned: you mean it’s NOT “come and eat your bacon up”?!?

There’s a recent Pink song where I laugh every time I hear her sing “my perfect wrapped bottom”

I always picture her admiring herself in a mirror, her bum wrapped up in cling film.

Pink song is Beautiful Trauma I think.

I'm blue if I were green I would die!

Sung it for years until a friend told me it was wrong

Let's not forget Alanis Morissette - And the cross eyed bear that you gave to me....
I also thought the Lightning Seeds were putting their foot down a drain and not putting their foot down to drive.
