Annie, are you walking? Are you walking, Annie?

[BarbaraVineFan]

…the lyrics of MJ’s ‘Smooth Criminal’, or so I thought until the age of about 25!!
Anyone else have funny misheard lyrics to share?

"..Got a long list of ex-lovers, they'll tell you I'm insane.."

Though Starbucks lovers is definitely better 😂

‘I can’t get it down, I can’t get it down, so get out of your seat and jump around! Was a tad embarrassed when singing this in the car with my new-ish boyfriend at the time (now husband).

oooh here she comes, watch out boys she’ll chew you up. Ooooh here she comes, she’s a mad diva!’

sigh

We’re making love in a femidom by sister sledge.

I used to sing it as I love cookies

My DC used to sing along with Sir Mix A Lot
"...I like big butts and a can of lime..."

My husband's contribution
Lionel Ritchie "She's a prick-OWW"
(Brickhouse)

Omg I thought these WERE the lyrics until I read your post and had to google it 😂

I love the king

Alive and kicking

Same…even now I sing trombelise as I can’t even hear anything else and have no idea what the actual lyrics are. I actually googled ‘trombelise’ to find out what kind of instrument it was! 😳🤣

Not me but my son, although these areas the lyrics we now sing
Coldplay - I want something just like this has become I want some ninja's like this

Shawn Mendes Stitches instead of You watch me bleeding til I can't breathe, shaking, falling into my knees
You watch me bleeding til I can't breathe, chicken farting onto my knees 🤣🤣

Starboy by The Weeknd -

You talkin' money, need a hearing aid
You talkin' 'bout me, I don't see the shade
Switch up my style, I can cannulate
I switch up my cup, I kill any pain

should be - I take any lane

Yes, I work in healthcare 😆

groovers in the hall (Dee Lite)… never seemed odd to me

Yes that’s one of those Mandela effect things where massive swathes of people had the same thought and heard ‘trombolese’ 😅

I love a good misheard lyrics thread!

'Shower the horse, I'm done' instead of 'ciao audios I'm done.'

We have a whole backstory to this one in our house, involving a lazy boyfriend who swore blind that if she let him have a horse, he would be responsible for showering it and she wouldn't have to do anything.

My eldest used to think it was 'From Wednesday it's coming' for From Yesterday and that the singers were 'just chips and fools' in We Built this City on Rock and Roll.

I was also convinced that Annie was actually Eddie.

Then there's Cousin Billy taking her walking in the weird, fancying-your-cousin thing in Son of a Preacher Man.

My favourite from a previous thread was someone who thought it was 'I can see Deirdre now Lorraine has gone.'

Alanis Morissette 'Ironic' ....'it's a deathrow hard-on, two minutes too late' 😳

'It's a deathrow pardon, two minute's two late' are the correct lyrics!

Too late, not two 🙄

"I lost my heart to a draught excluder" should be ... I lost my heart to a Starship Trooper 😅

George Ezra, Budapest
but for you, yoooooou,
I’ll diddley doo.

Same here! It doesn't actually mean anything but it sounds very funny - like he thinks he's one of The Wiggles or something!

I always misheard 'wife of a close friend' as 'wife of the postman'.

I absolutely thought the TLC song was Jason Waterfalls, but unlike most people who heard that I didn't think they were begging a guy names Jason Waterfalls not to go, I thought it was a warning, "don't go Jason Waterfalls", as in "don't behave in the foolish ways Jason Waterfalls is known to do". I guess I was about 6 or 7 though

“Last night a bidet saved my life.”

And the hot dogs will go on-the titanic theme tune

Dd (then aged 7) was singing along to Katy perry 'roar'
I've got the arse of a tiger!
('Eyes' dear child!)

"Got a list of Starbucks lovers" - Taylor Swift

"You must understand that the touch of your hand makes my balls react" - Tina Turner

"And their bum, and their bums, and their bums, and their bums" - The Cranberries

There was an episode of The Kumars At No 42, where Ummi (played by Meera Syal) talked about how annoying it is when your pants disappear up your bum crack, and she described the phenomenon as 'hungry arse'.

Ever since, I've never been able to hear Hungry Eyes by Eric Carmen with the proper lyrics!

Sure I've posted this before at some point, but never mind ...
