Misheard lyrics

[mercury]

We've all done it- we've all had those oops moments when we realize a song doesn't quite say what we thought it was saying. Lets share! I'll get us started:

The Classic Crime- The Fight
Correct lyrics: Would you cry for the weak and die for the peace of men
Misheard as: Would you cry for the weak and die for the pizza man

[sk00]

I seem to do this with Relient K far too often.

For example, I had just bought 5 Score and 7 Years and was listening to it straight through. I came upon "Devestation And Reform":
Correct lyrics: "I feel like I was born / For devastation and reform"
I mishead: "I feel like I was born / To a stationary form"

Had no idea what it meant, but it sounded right...

lol!
P.O.D.
they don't use profanity..but the guys raps/sings so fast, you have misheard some...

[ichiben]

definitely POD - Boom for example or perhaps Sounds Like War

[satjome]

secular example:
Bon Jovi's 'Two Story Town'
he says ship..but it sounds like something else...

[RebornButterfly]

i thought in the song 'better is one day' the lyric "Than thousands elsewhere"
was "than bounds the resistance"

[Timbo]

Um, anything by Norma Jean or UnderOath? In fact, search "Norma Jean Interpritation" or "UnderOath interpritation" on YouTube for some crazy videos where they put subtitles of what it sounds like. Really funny.

In Avalon's song "Testify to Love" I thought it was "Testify to the Lord" lol, and it was the title of the song too

[Consumed]

On Aly and AJ's song "Never Far Behind"...
The lyric was "...And I will be there waiting."
It sounded like, "...And I will be your lady."
That kind of changes the whole meaning of the song, huh?
Haha

[s0cks777]

probably is the funniest when your listening to heavy metal like underoath or still remains and you know they dont curse....but you think you hear it and you play it over and over again.....and then u look up the lyrics and u cant find them.

John Anderson is a country star that I grew up listening to and he has a song called "Let go of the Stone" and until I was like 15 I thought it was "Let go of the Storm" My parents really had to laugh at me

[Darkblue16]

ahh I do it alot like
barlowgirl when they sing "never alone" I thought is was "memory"..lol

[Timbo]

[Makinhistry]

Here's a new twist...ever get the lyrics of old hymns messed up when you were a kid?

Especially Christmas carols...

"...and having a nation sing, and having a nation sing..."
"...hark the hair, old angels sing..."
(Why in the world are those old angels worrying about the hair?? What hair??)

"...blessed insurance, Jesus us mine..."

"I stand, I stand in all of you..." (huh????)

I misheard lyrics to Jump5's song "Spinnin' Around". ya know, Brandon sings really fast in that song. and in the 2nd verse when he sang "All these definite maybe's". I thought he was saying something about Baby's.

and in a worship song that we sing at church, but I can't remember what song it was.
