My son used to sing "Crazy like a shoe" for Fat Boy Slim's "praise you like I should" but he was only 4 or 5 so it was acceptable.

When I was younger, I thought that was "praise you like a shrew". It confused me as to why shrews were worth praising, so I justified my thinking by believing he was being a sarcastic fúcker when singing the line. :P

Also my little sister thought the Vengaboys' classic hit "Ibiza" had a chorus of, "WHOA! We're going to eat pizza!"

And anything by Shaggy is just gfhviernfvjnrtjvn with an occasional word thrown in.

That's not from Sean south though.

It's from 'viva la quinta brigada', one of Christie Moore's finest.

Those are two different misheard lyrics. Notice the leprechaun part!

Not quite the same, but I never associated the recent Nelly song "hey porsche" with a car. So I thought that line that goes (something like) "no one tells me when I can turn you on" was really rapey.

Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix.........."Excuse me while I kiss this guy". Made me extremely confused as a kid

The Eagles: Desperado.

You've been outright offensive so long.

When I was younger I used to think the chorus in

Prefab Sprouts song King of Rock and Roll was Hot dog jump in fire I'll walk again, not Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque

also

Madness Our house in the middle of the street chorus was Our house in the middle of ostrich, not Our house, in the middle of our street

Pulp - Disco 2000

What I heard....
'Your house was very small,
with wet sh1t on the wall'

What he says....
'Your house was very small,
with wood chip on the wall' :rolleyes:

Not mine but I've heard of people thinking The Saw Doctorts "To Win Just Once" was "Two Injured Swans"...

I did the "praise you like a shoe" thing.

I though the chorus in Meat Loaf's "You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth" was "you took the words right out of my mouth, it must have been when you weren't listening t'me"... It is "you took the words right out of my mouth, it must have been while you were kissing me".

Pencil Full of Lead - Paolo Nutini

Actual lyrics: "Oh best of all, I got my baby"

Heard as: "Oh vegetable, I got my baby"

For too long I was convinced that in Queen's We Will Rock you the line "kickin' your can all over the place" was "kickin' your CAT all over the place"

Song for whoever - Beautiful South

Jennifer, Alison fill up with soup, Deborah, Annabell too.....

I think Zig and Zag used to have a slot for this sort of thing.

Plumpynutt · 03-05-2013 03:32PM

I used to think that the Lyrics to Snow Patrol's song Chasing Cars went "let's fork at the world" instead of "And just forget the world"

I used to mishear "I see a little silhouetto of a man, Scaramouche, Scaramouche, willl you do the Fandango?"
as
"Will this do?"

Quite a recent hit, how can you tell me he's not saying
"You owe me Tatyo"

From Apeman by The Kinks:

First line of 'Design For Life' by The Manics, 'life was Genghis Khan' as opposed to the actual lyrics which are 'Libraries gave us power'.

My mothers friend thought the lyrics to Islands in the stream was "Irelands Industry, that is what we are, no one in between.....

The old Senza Una Dona song by Paul Young was ruined by my buddy "Say it with a doughnut, no more pain and no sorrow"

A few people I know are sure that Alanis Morrissette was singing about a cross eyed bear in her song You Oughta Know.

I thought for years though that the Addams Family had a house named Ian, not that their house was a museum.
