Mistaken lyrics thread

[seventieslord]

Just thought of another one... a couple months after buying RARAMR, I realized there were indeed lyrics in the sleeve, and I was able to finally see what they were saying where I thought it was "you're better than being straight, while the fags await"

[seventieslord]

for some reason i used to think that the line that follows "calm and cold as a witch's tit" in Suckerpunch was "sometimes i think i act cosmically" rather than "sometimes i think that that girl's mechanic."

i have no idea why.

Actually, I thought that for a long time too. I bet it was that way on some lyrics site circa 2001-2002.

Haha, I've got one more.

"I don't know what you can say, makes no difference anyway.
I've been alright, now I'm back where the bunnies are"

....no idea what I thought it meant, but that's how I once thought "The Song Formally Known As" went.

i thought in "destroy all monsters" ginge sang "i come on your face, you piss on mine,is it just a matter of taste or just a matter of time" which i think works quite well

Haha - you're right, it does work. It would fit right in there.

Actually, before I bothered to read the lyrics, I thought the chorus of that song said "Your ugly face, it should be..."

Can remember sat in the pub one night years ago and the Jam track Eaton Rifles came on. We didn't have the heart to correct one of our friends who was sat singing, "Eating trifles" at top volume.

Back When Slipknot Released "Iowa" My Mum Was Singing "People Eat Horse Shit" Which... I Guess You Wouldn't Be Suprised If They Released A Song Like That... But For Those Who Dont Know The Song/Band/Album The Song/Lyrics Are "People Equal Shit" HaHa!

I Guess It Is Hard To Pick Out Over The Low Low Growls!

...StoneSour Are A Lot Better Anyway!!

I've been singing the wrong lyrics to song for years. It's even more fun now 'cos it drives my partner bad. He's an elitest Wildhearts fan and has been there since the first album, so it kills him when I sing the songs wrong.

My best one was when I was little was Star Treking, I though it was worse than nannies denchers, instead of dead Jim.

The other one actually had him on the internet checking out the lyrics and was just before Yoni was released.
I sang "You turn into a nutter, girl I can't stand why", he played it just before it was released and I swear to this day he was singing this. I still sing it now to wind him up lol
