Misheard Lyrics

quinn allman's hair.:

When listening to Paralyzed by The used,

I heard: how can a fish fight be romantic?
and it's actually: how can a fist fight be romantic?

In Nobody Likes You by Green Day, I heard, "After ten cups of coffee, I'm wasted!"
When actually, it's "After ten cups of coffee I'm waiting."
Not amusing, really. But I think wasted is better.

EDIT: Walls by All Time Low.
I heard, "Those skinny jeans are bad for you." Hey hey, boys!
But, alas, it's 'bought' not 'bad'.

All along the watchtower;
Jimi:So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
What I heard: So let us start talking falsely now, that I was getting laid.

also in purple haze;

Jimi:'Scuse me while I kiss the sky.
What I heard: 'Scuse me while I kiss that guy.

I could've sworn in the song When I Grow Up by The Pussycat Dolls I heard 'I wanna have boobies' instead of 'I wanna have groupies'.

Fuck. It's an owl.

In 'Coming Home' by Elliot Minor, I swear it said;
It's the only one that hasn't chased us with a gun.
but it actually says;
It's the only thing that hasn't changed since we've been gone.

she's farting the ghetto

Becky Starz - FTSK

Cactus - Pixies:

Actual lyric: sitting here wishing on a concrete floor
I thought it was: sitting here wishing on my semen flow

I was listening to it live in the street today, and went kind of lolwhat?

21 Guns
What it's really: 'Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone.'
What I heard: 'Like a lighter looking for forgiveness from the sun.'

From Blister In the Sun, by the Violent Femmes:

What I heard: "Let me go on... big hands I know you're the one."
What it is: "Let me go on... big hands I know you're the one."

... it actually is that. And I was so sure I had it wrong and whenever I sung it out loud people would be all "learn your lyrics that sounds so weird etc etc" but it was that after all.

On a note more fitting with the thread, I always thought it was "let me go wild" - it's actually "let me go on". ._.

Shades of Grey:

I could've sworn in the song When I Grow Up by The Pussycat Dolls I heard 'I wanna have boobies' instead of 'I wanna have groupies'.

I still sing that.

Swing - Savage.

Actual Lyrics: Oh shit, shake that ass ma, move it like a gypsy.
What I Heard: Oh shit, shake that ass mom, move it like a dipshit.

Wanderer.:

Swing - Savage.

Actual Lyrics: Oh shit, shake that ass ma, move it like a gypsy.
What I Heard: Oh shit, shake that ass mom, move it like a dipshit.

It makes me that someone in NY knows who Savage is.

AFI - Fallen Like The Sky.

Actual Lyrics: Until they eat their own young.
I heard - Until they eat their onion.

I was confused about those lyrics for a long time.

Shades of Grey:

I could've sworn in the song When I Grow Up by The Pussycat Dolls I heard 'I wanna have boobies' instead of 'I wanna have groupies'.

Me too! I always swore it was "I wanna have boobies!"

I saw these misheard lyrics on a website, and after listening to the song, I heard them too!

Oh, Canada! (The Misheard lyrics version)

Oh Canada, we stand on cars and freeze...
Oh Canada, our home and TV land...
Oh Canada my roaming naked band...
God Gui Soleil...
...true pagan love......
True nor strong and free!
We stand on God for thee...

I think it was the we stand on cars and freeze part that got me.

Wanderer.:

Swing - Savage.

Actual Lyrics: Oh shit, shake that ass ma, move it like a gypsy.
What I Heard: Oh shit, shake that ass mom, move it like a dipshit.

I'm not the only one!

I love that song though.

Poison Girl by H.I.M.

What I Heard: I'd do it all, for her.
Actualy Lyrics: I did it all just for her

Psychosocial by Slipknot.

What I heard; Fat chick's a virgin
Real lyrics; Psuedo-sacred, psycho virgin

I didn't mishear this; I found it on a lyrics site.

Quote

I never meant to be your know it all
Oh, I know I am wrong
Wanted to, we hadn't been the one
Who's there when it's gone
Pushing the light with pointing out
I'm better of all alone
Even if I call you every night
Don't dance on the phone

But never mind
I'm going anyways
But you have to know
I don't know how to tell you this frase
You will be alone
Taking off and I won't come back
I'm leaving this place
So expect me not to come back
I'm flying my way

Is there any chance to save the day?
So it's up to you
Had to learn my lesson where to stay
Help you where to
Never thought I would have at the time
To face all this
Never could of passed me to come back
All the time ...

The actual lyrics, as sung by Christian Linke:

Quote

I never wanted to be a know-it-all
Oh, I know I am wrong
Wanted to be heard and be the one
Who's there when he's gone
Pushing the line with pointing out
You're better off all alone
Even if I call you every night
Don't answer the phone

Never mind, I'm going anyways
But you have to know
I don't know how to tell you this phrase
You will be alone
Taking off and I won't come back
I'm leaving this place
So expect me not to come back
I'm flying away

Is there any chance to save the day?
Well, it's up to you
Had to learn my lesson where to stay
I hope you will, too
Never thought I would have had the time
To face all this
You could have asked me to come back
All the time ...

My little sister thought Please Don't Stop The Music was :

"I just came here to potty.
But now I'm hockin on the dance floor acting naughty
Your pants around my waist
just let the music lace"

XD

In 'Pretty Handsome Awkward' by The Used;
Correct lyrics: "Your ressurection"
My friend heard: "Your mass erection"
It was like two and a half years ago, but we all remember

Also, in 'America's Suitehearts' by Fall Out Boy;
Correct lyrics: "Why won't the world revolve around me?"
I heard: "Why won't the world bubble wrap me?"

And in 'Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On A Bad Bet' by Fall Out Boy;
Correct lyrics: "The walls lean in to listen"
My friend heard: "Be a ninja"
And if it wasn't for actually looking up the lyrics, we all would have just gone along with that because lets face it, everyone loves the mention of ninjas

Y'know Blue Orchid by The White Stripes? Yeah, well the first time I heard it, whilst sitting with a friend, I was convinced that the lyrics were:

You got an erection
You got an erection dead in you

Like, instead of

You got a reaction, didn't you?

Hmm, yeah.

She gave me a strange look before deciding my version was slightly cooler.
