Misheard Songs

[Der Nister]

Hey Brenda, Paul wasn't singing in English during that part of My Michelle.

Michelle, ma belle

Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble

tres bien ensemble

[Paper Hearts]

Iggy Pop~Repo Man

I used to think he was singing:

"Looking for my dope with a microscope"

But, no, he's singing:

"Looking for the joke with a microscope"

My friend Ron, I caught him singing

"I cut my crust off too!"

instead of:

"I put my trust in you!"

for Joy Division's 'A Means To An End'.

[Brenda Starrr]

I know that now. But when I was a kid, I didn't know he was singing in French.

[BillyDeath]

Great Balls of Fire - Jerry Lee Lewis

"You shook my nerves and you rattled my brain"

Misheard

"You shook my balls and you rattled my brain"

[JaneDead]

I know that now. But when I was a kid, I didn't know he was singing in French.

i used to think he said something about a monkey too

[JaneDead]

i used to think in the song dragula (spelling?) by white zombie or whatever.... i thought he said jugular. "in the back of my jugular!" i wondered why he was singing about his throat

[jadnifer]

I like some songe by Alanis Morseitte ( did I spell that right?)

I belive the song is called "It's Not Fair"

I thought the line was: The cross eyed bear that you gave to me.

The line is actually: The cross I bear that you gave to me.

Its funny that, at least for me, once you know what they are really singing you never quite hear what you thought it said anymore. LOL!

[sinmantyx]

"There's a bad moon on the rise"

=

"There's a bathroom on the right"

and

"Dirty deed done dirt cheep"

=

"Dirty jeans and the thunder chief"

That is all.

I'm pretty sure that's from "You Oughtta Know" (ironically).

My dad made that same mistake as a little boy with the hymn "The Cross I'd Bear." He loved going to church just to hear the song about the poor sweet bear with the unfortunate vision problem.

A Toby Keith song:

Get Drunk and Be Somebody

Theres a line that says: I just punched out and its paycheck Friday

I thought it said: I just punched out and its big chick Friday

[Troy Spiral (13)]

When we were pups my friend paul and i thought that the recurring line in "Bella Lugosi's Dead" was "Im dead im dead im dead" and thus we would "dance" like we died at the end of the song.

Holy dumbasses batman. The line is [bella lugosi's dead] ...Undead. Supposed to be sort of a dry humor joke/play on words.

-500 goth points.

Lol j/k Troy, you're way cooler than I'll ever be

[Paper Hearts]

Electronic, Get the Message, this verse:

Blame it on appearance It might seem

A shame that we're not you or me

May easily be mistook for:

Counting all the peanuts in my seat

a shame that they're not you or me

I had to look up the correct lyrics.

Since we're including religious music, when I was a cub I always heard "Go Tell It On the Mountain" as "Goat Heaven On the Mountain". I thought it was pretty cool the little billy goats got their own special heaven.
