I don't remember who started it. It sounds like one of my goofy- assed threads, but alas, I cannot take credit for it.

 

A couple of months ago (and I am waaaaayyy to lazy to use the search function and find out who did it) someone started a thread about misheard lyrics.

 

After my recent mishap with "Tom Sawyer" (A monday warrior?), I thought it would be fun to revisit this:

 

The Rules: Post the lyric as you thought it was, then the original, follower by title and artist.

 

Those of you wh have "Scuse me while I kiss this guy", no fair just copying from the book!!!:mad:

 

So, I'll start:

 

A monday Warrior...

 

 

A Modern- day Warrior-

Tom Sawyer- Rush

 

Dog meat- when it's 10 feet overhead

 

Dive Deep when it's 10 feet overhead

 

Badfish- Sublime!

"reved up like a douche"




Manfred Mann "Blinded By The Light"

 

I always thought it was "Wrapped up like a douche" then I discover it is "revved up like a Duece"... I liked it better the way I mis-heard it! :)

Yeah that's better ;)

 

One more, not sure if this has ever been mentioned before (probably has), but on Elton John's Benny & The Jets:

 

"she's got electric boobs, a mohawk too"

He was just so eager to get it in before someone else, that he has half -misheard, half-lyric. Don't blame him for wanting to be cool. :cool::rolleyes::lol:

Kind of on the same subject, I had a bass student that I tought for about 2 years that was a huge Van Halen fan. He wanted to learn a bunch of that stuff (super easy-I know). Anyway, I guess he never owned Van Halen II record, but wanted to learn the song "Loss Of Control" off that album. He always thought they were singing:

"Washin' the jaw washin' the jaw washin' the jaw"

I had a friend a few years back whose wife swore up and down that "Panama" by VH was actually "Burn 'em Up!"

 

We found out by hearing her sing along with the radio and asking her what she was singing...

When I was a kid, I thought the chorus for Pride (In the Name of Love) went:

"Once more in the name of love."

 

In reality it's:

"What more, in the name of love?"

 

Sorry, this was a really lame and un-funny post, but I wanted to contribute.
