AIBU to ask which lyrics you've been getting wrong?

[AIBUPODCAST]

Hello - Producer Amanda has just found out that a friend of hers thought the lyric to the first line of Brain Adams' Summer Of 69' was 'Got my first real sex dream' .... it's 'Got my first real SIX STRING' .. an easy mistake to make though...
So AIBU to ask for your similar lyrical mix-ups?

I've been listening to Missy Elliott's Work It while running, and have just realised that the line isn't 'boy, lift it up, let's make a toaster'. (It's 'make a toast... ah') 'Toaster' always sounded a bit incongruous but I assumed it was a complicated sexual position I hadn't heard of.

"I'm gonna take my horse to the hotel room". Instead of "Old town road".

Its a country song - I was imagining a horse being tied up behind a motel somewhere in the Deep South.

Apparently not.

My dad used to sing "I wear goggles when you are not near", instead of "my world crumbles", to I Try by Macy Gray. But that may have been deliberate

Meghan trainer all about that bass. My dad used to sing 'all about that bass, no gerbils' instead of 'all about that bass, no treble'
When i told him what the lyrics actually were, he said he thought the song was a bit weird, being about gerbils

The Four Seasons - Let's Hang On To What We've Got.
The actual lyrics are 'give me a second turning' but I'm always convinced that Frankie Valli is demanding 'give me a feckin' turnip'!

'You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille - with four hundred children and a crop in the field'.

The Four Seasons - Let's Hang On To What We've Got.

Listen from 1:57

OMI - Cheerleader

I couldn't work out why he was so happy about finding himself a jellybear.

1:48 - 'When the clock strikes 12, we'll fill our pants'

"There's nothing that a hundred men on Mars could ever do. I guess the rain's down in Africa."

And from Seal's Kiss from a Rose, "To me you're like a roller dictionary." Instead of "To me you're like a growing addiction I can't deny."

"Should I give up or should I just keep chasing payments" (should be pavements). I figured it was a song about debt collectors.

Craig David has obviously just relaunched his career because he can't afford the Lego

There's another recent one where the female sings about putting a roof rack on him (the one where she doesn't pick up the phone , you know he's only calling because he's drunk and alone.)

Skunk Anansie- ‘just because you’re rich , it doesn’t make it right’

Apparently it’s ‘just because it feels good’ but I actually think my lyrics are better

Rem losing my my religion ‘LETS PEE IN THE CORNERR’

1:14 - "Let me in or else I'll wee down your door"
I think it's meant to be 'beat' instead of 'wee', which isn't really much better.

@AIBUPODCAST I always think it sounds like sex dream

The Peter Kay sketch about misheard lyrics has me howling every time! ‘Just let me staple the vicar’ for the Sister Sledge song.

As a PP but more: 'four hundred children and a crap in the field'

You're absolutely right, I listened and now I'm cackling like a witch.

Oh so many.
One it goes "put your hands up so the ceiling can hold us" I truly sang like a silicone holder.
I said to DD that's a silly song, to put your hand up like a silicone holder.

For years I thought the second line of Sex Bomb by Tom Jones was 'infra red semen going through the night" which has made me feel really icky about the song. Turns out it's 'infra red se me coming through the night" but it's all too late for me.
