To ask you to share your children's misheard lyrics?

A few years ago I was driving and listening to Ballroom Blitz by The Sweet. My DD1 announced she loved the song and was singing along heartily. It was about halfway through the song when I realised she was singing

"And he fell into a bowl of mix"

I cried laughing.

DS told me recently that she had been listening to Alanis Morrisette and her DD was singing along then she asked why did he give her a cross-eyed bear?

As in " and I'm here to remind you.........of the cross-eyed bear that you gave to me.....you oughta know!"

Please indulge me and share your giggles

When DD was about 4, I realised that DD thought "Mary had a little lamb" went:
"Mary had a little lamb
It's feet were white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went
It's hands were sure to go".
If you have made the first mistake, I can understand how the second one occurred but don't understand where DD thought the rest of the lamb might be...
I was at a carol concert with a 30-something friend who suddenly realised the Little Donkey was on a dusty road & didn't have a dusty nose!

[LikeTheShoes]

Our junior choir have been singing "Oh Taliban" Rather than "O Tannenbaum"

[Ironfloor]

'Shut up to my eggs, you are really quite the mess'

Guess the song...

[Testarossa1]

My sister thought the line "I called you last night from Glasgow" from super trooper was "I called you last night from tescos"

I on the other hand thought Shirley Bassey was popping her clogs not a Cork in Big Spender.....

[MrsBobDylan]

You're so lame...another Carly Simon classic.

[BigBlink]

My 6yr old DS is always doing this. Two of the moat recent one are...

_George Esra - Budapest (chorus)
_
^You ooh, you ooh, a divvidooo

^
_Little Mix -Shout Out To My Ex (chorus)
_
Shout out to my vest, you really are a van

_

'Double dicks, double dicks no trouble!! Double dicks, double dicks no trouble'....

Epic Mia-hearing of Meghan Treinor.

[TheUnexpectedMorrisDancer]

My favourite was my DDs version of the alphabet. According to her it goes H I J K and the letter P!

[mushroomsontoast]

My 6yo tells everyone her favourite song is 'I love cats'. She thinks lovecats by the Cure is just about someone who really, really loves cats!

[MissDuke]

Ds was singing 'we will rock you' after seeing pixels in the cinema. He sang 'threw mud at your face' instead of 'you got blood on your face' - I had to google the lyrics to convince him he was wrong

[RubbishRobotFromTheDawnOfTime]

DD aged 2 loves singing Frozen songs but is not too hot on the actual lyrics.

"we used to be best buddies" is "you used to be my bunny"

and

"say goodbye to the pain of the past" is "say goodbye to the pain of your pants"

[CauliflowerSqueeze]

In a dance lesson at primary school we had to dance to Bananarama's Love in the first degree.

My friend thought the chorus was: ....'cos I'm guilty, guilty, guilty as a cocoa bean!!!

Have a listen - exactly 1 minute in:

"I shot the sherrif, but I didn't shoot him dead, you see"

(instead of "but I didn't shoot the deputy")

[JustSpeakSense]

'Your socks are on fire' (your sex is on fire)

I never corrected them, I let them belt it out full volume (they were so sweet and innocent)

[harrypoooter]

Mama mia- daughter sings ' there's a fireman in myyyyy soul! ' ha ha

[FaithAscending]

DD (3) learnt a new song at pre-school. She loves it and sings Woah the hokey dokey! frequently! When she was tiny she always sang Old Macdonald had a farm, ee-ei ee-ei ho ho ho (I was a bit sad when she dropped the ho ho ho!).

[ShoeJunkie]

Ds1 singing Breakfast at Tiffany's "and I said what about breakfast activities"

[NoCapes]

We still call the Meghan Trainor song 'ba ba biss' in my family after DD used to sing (over and over and over)
"Coz you know it's only ba ba biss ba ba biss, no trouble"

[poisonedbypen]

A very old one & not quite in the same vein, but when I was little & we used to sing "I will make you fishers of men" at Sunday school I thought it was "I will make you vicious old men".

[han01uk]

Sia and cheap thrills....

"It's Friday night and it won't be long til I hit the...

DUMPSTER instead of dance floor as my 7 year old merrily sings!!

[ILoveAntButHateDec]

Oh God! This takes me back to when my dd was 7. School put on a concert (Something about American Independence as far as I can remember). Dd's crowning moment was when she sung "John Brown's Body Means a Soldier in a Rave". She could be heard well over and above everyone else's correct version. I received lots of pitying looks from pfb's mums....... The shame.... Would it be dreadfully remiss of me to remind her of that singular episode every Christmas?? [Evil cackle]

[AngelBlue12]

Me and my sister used to sing Armadillo instead of Oh Vienna (I taught the DCs to do it as it winds DH up!)

Also managed to convince a friend growing up that Abba were singing 'want the loo' instead of Waterloo!

[BadgerIsGrumpy]

Rehearsals for the Reception Nativity are in full swing here, with 'little OLD Jesus asleep on the hay'

[TheBadgersMadeMeDoIt]

On a long drive to visit family a few Christmases ago, DD (then 2) kept asking me to change the music and put "Baby Leorgie" on. I racked my brains and went through every song on the Nursery Rhyme CD but had no idea what she meant.

We were almost there when I realised it was Away in a Manger. (Baby Leorgie = Little Lord Jesus).

[ItWentInMyEye]

6 yo DD has watched Frozen a bajillion times, but is still adamant Elsa sings "the past is in the hast"
