One of my favourites -- can't remember where I saw it-- was:

Give me one good reason
give me...
in fact I mean logic


A friend insisted that 'When you don't see me' was actually an advert for AEG:

'Get real... get an oven'

Though to be fair, he did say that for comic effect.

Any other corkers?

WHAT?

Although I still am a firm believer that the lyrics 'solid gold' in 'lovecats' is actually 'Sally Gunnel'.

There were two many ' in that last post wasn't there?

eeeermmmm in Slayer's "Jesus saves" I used to think that Tom Araya was singing "Refried beans", but obviously he wasn't...

"spare him his wife coz there's one sausage each" An everlasting classic from a friend of ours singing the Bohemian Rhapsody.

I think it goes "spare him his life from this monstrosity"

He was pretty cool but he sucked at lyrics

"excuse me while I kiss this guy"?

Mrs T thought the words to the opening track on the Stone Roses first album were "I want to be a dog".

Sweetness I was only joking
When I said I'd like to
Mash a beetroot in your hair

Bigmouth Strikes Again by The Smiths. My own mishearing. It should (obviously) be

Smash every tooth in your head

When I first heard it I couldn't figure out why Andy was singing about a guy called Walter in On the Wire and what or where Walter was treading. (I was rather young. And yes, obviously it was Wall to wall to where you tread)

Fab. I was particularly after Sisters misheards... kiss this guy is quite famous. Any other Sisters ones?

Ha ha ha ha!

I'm sure I'm not the only one who used to think The Carpenters song went

'Calling occupants of interplanetary cr*p'

How I giggled each time it came on the radio!

only for flemish people...
my girlfriend (when she was little) thought that "vicious" went
"visjes, ze zwemmen in het water"
instead of
"vicious, you do it every hour"

it translates roughly as "fishes, they're swimming in the water"....

Quite a famous one is Macy Gray's 'Try'. It REALLY sounds like

'Though I try to hide it, it's clear - I wore goggles when you were not here'



(It is supposed to say 'my world crumbles when you are not here'. But it doesn't!)

From the lyric sheet that comes with the Japanese version of FALAA.

As a joke, Jimi used to sing that at gigs more often than the correct version, so if you're listening to a live recording it's probably not a misheard lyric!

Just an ikkle fountain of infomation you are!!!!!!

When I first heard Floorshow (I was still a nipper) I thought it was...
"This is the voice of the crap in your hands, animals go to the animal pound"

I still like to sing along with those lyrics now.

The **** is supposed to be cr*p.

Another classic - Manfred Mann's Earth Band's "Blinded By the Light". Did anyone else wonder why in hell they were singing about feminine hygiene products?! ROFL!!!
