Mishearing song lyrics

[Freeasabird76]

Just listened to Beyonce-texas hold emto have genuinely believed she was singing "Fuck Alexa" 😂.Anybody else got lyrics wrong?

In ‘Today Today’ by The Smashing Pumpkins, ‘my willy stings.’ it actually says ‘my belly stings.’

Nine stone cowboy .... Rhinestone cowboy

I was late 30s when I realised Bob Marley's Stir It Up wasn't Spirit Up

In the song africa by toto I thought the lyric was “men on mars could ever do”
not “men or more”

Back when Bohemian Rhapsody first came out, I thought ‘spare him his life from this monstrosity’ was ‘spare him his life for his warm sausage tea’, even though this made no sense whatsoever.

Also Bohemian Rhapsody, I still hear ‘spit in my eye’ as ‘spin my eyes’, and imagine Freddie Mercury doing the mother and father of all eye-rolls.

Go go Jason Waterfalls is actually - don't go chasing waterfalls.

Who'd have known.

Me too!!!! Genuinely very glad to know it's not just me.

You're so vain.. he does NOT have one eye in the mirror as he watches himself walk by... he 'gavottes' , as in rhyming with the scarf that was apricot. Listen again and it's really clear. Everyone I know has had it wrong. It's a fact I read here on MN a while back on a similar thread. Mind blown!!

Smashing Pumpkins 1979, always thought it opened with "shagged out in 1979" and thought he was bragging about his exploits from yesteryear

Anyone remember that Hersay song that said 'pure and simple gonna be there'? My friend thought it was "your aunt Sylva's gonna be there" lol

Still convinced Florence Welch was living on a sexy elephant. Definitely not such sweet nothing. Nope.

Destinys Child - Independent Woman….

The shoes on my feet (Alf Garnet)
The clothes I'm wearing (Alf Garnet)
The rock I'm rocking (Alf Garnet)

My brother always thought it was about a cross eyed bear too. Still makes me smile!

The Monkees - cheer up
sleepy cheese

Shaggy's it wasn't me- "how could I forget I gave her an anchovy?"

Chicken in a bun - Spice up your life!

I always thought it would make a great advert for KFC.

Oh that bloody Taylor Swift song Karma

I sing ' Colin is my boyfriend , Colin at the weekend, Colin's a relaxing fart'

Moana: I Am Moana (at 1 min 59 secs)

"It's like the tide, always fucking rising!"

I cannot hear it any other way.

Life in Tokyo Japan…Another pickle heads for sunset
Twelve year old me could NOT understand why a pickle would be doing that!

It’s vehicle.

Until a few weeks and I thought the one direction song ‘story of my life’ was about a girl named Rosanne. That it said ‘it’s Roooooosanne’ but it turns out it actually says ‘is frooooooozen’

Yep, I was convinced it was Starbucks lovers too! My swiftie daughter was not impressed 🤣

Nothing will EVER be able to beat the fluttering kite/ fluttering c**t one on CBeebies Show Me Show Me. Still makes me laugh out loud so many years later
Thank you Chris Jarvis.

My 8 year old son was listening to my partners 80's cd in the car when he piped up 'mum why is that lady singing Happy Butt day ' 🤣

Trumbolese is what we call nfts in our house (taken from the mishearing of this song)

Very popular when baby 1 was born, one new mother got upset because she heard 'four hundred children and a crop in the field' after a difficult birth and couldn't understand how anyone would have 400 children
