AIBU to ask what is your biggest lyric mishap? (lighthearted)

[hel123]

So I was watching TV with my OH last night, and the adverts came on. One advert had the song 'Born free' as the backing track.

I enthusiastically sang along to the words as I have always known them... 'Born freeeeeeeee, as free as a monkeeeeeeeee'.

My husband almost wet himself and replayed the ad at least four times to prove that they are categorically NOT the words.

I have literally only just found out that it is 'as free as the wind blows'. I'm quite gutted, at least my version rhymes! And I thought it had something to do with the film!!

So what lyrics have you got wrong, make me feel better!!!

Remember the Finger of Fudge advert from the 80s? " it's full of Cadbury goodness and very small and neat" well I bought a multi Pack once and offered DP one whilst humming the tune. He joined in heartily with " it's full of PEPPERY goodness". He was 52 at the time. We still call a finger of Fudge a "peppery" now

newruby this is news to me, I thought rock and rolling through too! What is it?!

Brew!

Rock n roll and brew.

Music and beer, but he wants love too.

Also that song by The Bomb that was alway on when we went clubbing

'Pizza going through my miiiiiind'

These sounds 🙈

That song by the Clash:

Ya we don’t like it
Proctor Gamble
Proctor Gamble

I used to say peppery goodness turns out its quite common

I used to think hot patootie in the rocky horror pcture show was opportunity bless my soul

"I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram or a Cilla Black fan on a bike"

Shania Twain - "I can't believe you kiss your cock at night" is much preferable to the boring "I can't believe you kiss you car goodnight"

Some song called “strip for me” from the 80s. My mum sang “soup for me and soup for you” instead when I was a kid when serving food. I sang it at work when a colleague had soup. He though it was funny that I had no idea what the real words were

Pinks a Beautiful trauma - i tought the line was (weirdly) "a midget chased me, wasn't that friendly". (proper line is "I made you chase me, I wasn't that friendly")
Omg I've always thought Meatloafs song ‘Dead Ringer for love’ was ‘rock and rolling through’ too... Probably loads more that I'm blissfully singing away tunelessly

Rihanna - We Found Love.

She's clearly singing "We found love and I hold the snakes".

DD disagrees.

Another one hearing 'eyes like potatoes' in La Isla Bonita...
My DS1 when he was little used to sing 'I gotta move my dragon' instead of Move like Jagger.

"Sitting on a cornflake" or
"Sitting on the corner of a lake"

Which is it? Whichever one it actually is, I thought it was the other one.

Also, "Don't wanna go to Riyadh"

Commented to a friend how was surprised they were allowed to play the lyric in Ed Sheeran's 'Castle on the Hill' where he talks about his friend selling coke. Turns out he sells clothes...

There is an Irish folk song 'Catch me if you can, my name is Dan', about a man telling all the women what a great catch he'd be as a husband: 'I've got money and acres of land', etc. It includes the lines: 'And I'm off to Listoonvarna (spelling?) at the end of the year/ I'm off for a bit of craic, the women and the beer!' For quite a long time, I thought he was saying that he was off for a bit of crack, the illegal drug, and I was wondering why on earth this appeared in a song where someone is trying to advertise his suitability as a husband!
