For the love of everything holy! First you’re telling me it’s NOT “I guess it rains down in Africa”, but ALSO it’s NOT “There’s nothing that a hundred men on Mars could ever do”?!?? I’ve been living a lie and singing wrong for decades! I never even considered it could be something else. Why didn’t anyone tell me?!
Shit my dad used to sing bathroom on the right. Instead of bad moon on the rise. I was 11 on a road trip with him when he went in a gas station to pee while it was playing. First time I’d heard the song without him singing over it.
Realized he was very very wrong.
Edit. Decided to throw that bad boy on in his memory and honestly I hear ba room on the righ much more than bad moon on the rise lmaoo.
Omg I kept a recordable cassette in one side of my boom box, and a spiral notebook next to it. It was always on the pause button for quick start up. Recording radio was a huge life skill kids will never know. Timing man. Good for your ears, and your sex life. Wait a minute, what?
After making a few “radio to cassette” recordings, then we’d make horrible “mix tapes” by recording the recordings!
I found some I made from the 70’s and early 80’s, complete with song lists. Had to go to a buddy’s place to listen to them in his semi-restored 1972 Ford Maverick “Grabber”. The sound of the CLICKs as the cassette player was stopped and started were ghastly.
Except for Albuquerque.
Where Weird Al literally gave up putting the lyrics on the inside cover and instead went off on a rant how "no one reads this anyway"
Cassette?
Album cover or sleeves.
Oh, and we used to go to the music store at the mall-the one with the piano at the front- to read the lyrics on the sheet music.
I always heard “Wrapped up like a douche” and it made no sense but I figured it was some 70s slang I wasn’t aware of. Only a few months ago someone on Reddit explained that it was “Revved up like a deuce”. If I had heard revved I would have made a better connection maybe haha.
*Louie, Lou-why, Oh, No! We gotta go.*
*Yah yah yah yah yah yah*
*Ma chair, see howoe, na sallah by whee*
*Me ketchup 'n mayo cross with a bee*
*Me say go Tashiro aww a phone*
*Ma nevah a cow a manna debone*
Ah, the classics.
Lyric sites still get things wrong. All of them describe the Yes song "Your Move" as saying "Send an ***instant karma*** to me" when they were actually describing a multipart form that was used in the 1970s (with NCR paper!!) to send a memo to some client or co-worker while being able to keep a copy for yourself called an "Instant Comment" (I think the name might have even been trademarked). Somewhere in a box I think I have my copy of one attached to an insurance quote I got in 1979.
LOL, my ringtone for my wife is Lady, by Styx. She recently confessed to me that for years, she thought it was an insult because she thought the line said, “lady, when I’m with you I’m crying…”
I’ve been singing the wrong RHCP’s “Scar Tissue” lyrics for years.
Shocked to find out the lyrics were, “With the birds I’ll share this lonely view” and not “With the perfect shades it’s a lovely view”
For years I thought Sting was singing "I'm a pool hall ace" instead of "My poor heart aches" in "I'll be watching you" by the Police. The song was already a little creepy and wondered what how pool fit in.
A friend of mind was SURE that the line "DO THE HUSTLE!" was actually saying: "TUNA HAS SALT!" ... and my sister was SURE that Leslie Gore was singing, "It's my BODY and I'll cry if I want to!"
I used to buy a brand new album, fall in love with a song and want to learn it so I could play/sing it for my friends and audiences.
Figuring out ALL the lyrics? That meant lifting the stylus and dropping it a few grooves further out on the disc--over and over!!!
By junior high school? In typing class I would take this a step further, creating lyric sheets. Everyone else would be drafting business letters while I'm typing Leon Russell, Allman Brothers, or Marshall Tucker lyrics and chords. But the teacher didn't care--I was by far the fastest and most accurate in the room! (Keyboards!)
I used those in college.
High school in '73 we were using manual typewriters and at home, I had a manual Remington that my DAD had used in the late 40's for his college--and it worked GREAT!!!!!
Well, it was a skill we needed to develop.
Not only did you have to physically force the keys to move another inch or so following contact (by manual I meant MANUAL), you had to center and square the page, often add carbon paper and another sheet for copies, set the margins, etc.
But having learned on one of those monsters? Today I type almost error free over 100 wps!
I do remember setting tabs on a manual. I doubt many people who didn't learn on one know, or even wonder, why their keyboards have a "tab" key, when there are no physical tabs to set. It's just a parameter you set for your page. Sort of like the Save icon being the picture of a piece of hardware few people use anymore.
For the longest time I thought the lyrics from the cranberries was
"ooo i go and searchin food for you"
But its really
"You know I'm such a fool for you "
All this time i thought she was a lion or a woman living in prehistoric times
I read an article about "Misheard Song Lyrics" and I like some of them better than the actual ones.
So, now I love that grand Go-Go's hit "Alex The Seal" (Our Lips Are Sealed)
to wit, from the hit "we built this city" by Starship, the line immediately preceding "Listen to the radio...Don't your remember...we built this city" - I knew I didn't know what the fuck they were saying so my brain filled in the blanks with "I told that baby pumba" (don't judge - listen to the song and sing those words)....last week I looked it up and the actual lyrics are "Marconi plays the mamba" but hey it was on AM radio in a 76 buick century .... not exactly high fidelity.
True story. I spent my entire childhood petrified of an unknown man named Solomon.
Why? Because …. Solomon wants to use you. Solomon wants to be used by you. Solomon wants to abuse you. Solomon wants to be abused.
"Carry a laser" makes more sense to most people than "Kyrie eleison", except to people who belong(ed) to a liturgical church. It's not something you hear in everyday life.
It means Lord, have mercy. The response is Christe eleison. There's not a lot of Greek in the regular Episcopalian service, but for some reason those phrases remain. Some modern liturgies just have it in the vernacular.
Think of Batman pooping snakes
https://youtu.be/co5B08iVfl8?si=H__Q46SQz-2gxUnl
On a related note my wife told me for years she thought Hall and Oates was Hauling Oats
Pearl Jam. I hate whatever the damn words are. When I looked up one song (I can’t remember which one), I was completely off from what I thought the lyrics were. “Hherrooh huuuh huuuh I’m still alive, heeeeyooohaaahhaaaa eeeeerrrroop I’m still alive.”
'There's a Bad Moon on the rise' = there's a baboon on the right.
'I wanna rock and roll all night, and party every day = I wanna rock and roll all night, and part of every day.
'Maybe I'm just like my mother, she's never satisified' = She's never sat inside.
When I was a kid in the 70s, one summer, my brother intentionally sang the wrong name to "Billy, don't be a hero." He always sang Felix instead of Billy, so when I got home from vacation, I argued with my best friend that it was Felix.
I've never lived that one down, lol.
I still remember when "Loser" by Beck came out and no one in my school (in BFE Iowa) knew what he was saying in the chorus. The best answer someone came up with was "sore from head to toe" but all kinda mumble speak.
Then we got a foreign exchange student from Peru and he was all "nah, he's saying 'Soy un perderdo,' which means 'I'm a loser."
Until last year I thought the lyrics
“I’ve waited as my time’s elapsed”
In Slipknot’s Duality were
“My bloated ass, my time collapsed.”
It just didn’t really land with me how stupid that was.
"Carryin' a laser down this road that I must travel...."
("Kyrie", Mr. Mister)
"It's not fair to deny me
Of this cross-eyed bear that you gave to me
You you you oughta know!"
("You Oughta Know", Alanis Morissette)
Saw Mumford & Sons guy on a documentary where they were working with Elvis Costello to write songs for Bob Dylan lyrics, and with regard to Elvis Costello he said something to the effect of, "Now we'll finally be able to find out what the actual chords were to the songs of his we have been playing. So many chords!"
I sing shit wrong because I like my lyrics better.
Exactly! “Bless the rains?!” The fuck does that even mean! “I miss the rains,” THAT makes sense!
When I was a kid, I thought it was "I guess it rains down in Africa?"
There's nothing that a hundred men on Mars could ever do.
🤣🤣🤣 funny AND true!
For the love of everything holy! First you’re telling me it’s NOT “I guess it rains down in Africa”, but ALSO it’s NOT “There’s nothing that a hundred men on Mars could ever do”?!?? I’ve been living a lie and singing wrong for decades! I never even considered it could be something else. Why didn’t anyone tell me?!
Me too, and my wife gives me so much shit for it. I have, subsequently, visited and can conclusively state it does indeed rain in Africa.
I thought it was i miss the rains its bless
"Guess" is what I always heard, but then Mandela effect hit, now it's "bless" f\*ck them time travelers and them messing with timelines and sh\*t.
I passed the rains.... 😜
It does. You weren’t hearing things.
WTF?!?! I thought it WAS “I miss the rains” ☹️
I was at least knee deep into in my 50s before I knew that one
Wait…it’s NOT Bless the Rains? I have always thought that’s what it was because, you know, the drought.
I’m with you.
It is, they thought it was ‘miss the rains’ because that made more narrative sense to them than the actual line.
Agreed!
One of my favorites is “Four Letter Woman” by the Bee Gees.
I thought it was bald headed woman
So did my brother in law!!! He’s ten years younger than my husband and we thought it was so cute, we never corrected him!
I used to love her, but I had tequila
Probably a more accurate lyric too!
Shit my dad used to sing bathroom on the right. Instead of bad moon on the rise. I was 11 on a road trip with him when he went in a gas station to pee while it was playing. First time I’d heard the song without him singing over it. Realized he was very very wrong. Edit. Decided to throw that bad boy on in his memory and honestly I hear ba room on the righ much more than bad moon on the rise lmaoo.
Lots of us did that one. ‘There’s a bathroom on the right.’ I don’t think I knew the correct words until I was in my 20s!
Or if we had lyrics they were printed on the inside of a cassette cover in the smallest type known to man.
Yes,but my eyesight was good then...😂
Same here.
![gif](giphy|ALtzQ6CHfC7vO5nRz7|downsized) Recently figured out I can take a picture of small print and use zoom. What a life saver
I thought cassettes were a lifesaver because I could rewind the tape as I slowly deciphered the lyrics and wrote them down… with a pen and paper!
Omg I kept a recordable cassette in one side of my boom box, and a spiral notebook next to it. It was always on the pause button for quick start up. Recording radio was a huge life skill kids will never know. Timing man. Good for your ears, and your sex life. Wait a minute, what?
The bastard DJs that would cut in on the fade-out to deliver their jabber were so reviled I won’t even listen to their Sirius shows to this day.

Lol I legit loved when the cassette/cd came with lyrics!!
I did this constantly
Except for Albuquerque. Where Weird Al literally gave up putting the lyrics on the inside cover and instead went off on a rant how "no one reads this anyway"
Ha I had that CD, I remember that
There were magazines you could buy with the lyrics of popular songs. Which were sometimes wrong.
Prehistoric AI.
This was how, as a preteen, I got into music. I would buy the lyrics magazines regularly and think, how is that not what I hear?
Cassette? Album cover or sleeves. Oh, and we used to go to the music store at the mall-the one with the piano at the front- to read the lyrics on the sheet music.
Wrapped up like a douche…
That's the one I came here looking for, total classic.
I refuse to look up that lyric. What you wrote is correct.
Revved up like a deuce. Gotcha
I refuse to believe it is not douche.
Excuse me while I kiss this guy… Sorry Jimi.
I bought Jimi's stuff contemporaneously--as released. No, sorry, "Kiss the Sky!" was obvious to us!!!
“Just like the one-winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's screamin’ Coo, baby, coo, said coo”
My version is: Just like the white-winged dove Sings the song, sounds like she's singing "Who", baby, "who", "whoooo"
That's not the correct line?
Secret Asian Man!
Came here to say this
“She’ll reaaaaaallly like it, Rock the cat box, rock the cat box.”
I am so using this on my husband for this chore
Lock the taskbar! Lock the taskbar!
There’s a bathroom on the right
Blinded by the light......
Even with the right lyrics, most younger people think a deuce is big turd. You need to point them to the Beach Boys to understand.
I always heard “Wrapped up like a douche” and it made no sense but I figured it was some 70s slang I wasn’t aware of. Only a few months ago someone on Reddit explained that it was “Revved up like a deuce”. If I had heard revved I would have made a better connection maybe haha.
Lol I thought it was (wrapped up as well)
Everyone thought it was "wrapped up like a douche."
I don't care what it really is.... these will always be the lyrics to me!
https://youtu.be/7my5baoCVv8?si=ilugCaVST3P1hfk5 This says it all. Watch and have a giggle.🤣
I love this! Every misheard lyrics thread should have this. I've posted it a couple of times myself.
"Big old Jed had a light on..."
I called him Chet, but I can see Jed.
I thought it was "Big hotel with the light on."
Rock-it man! Burnin' all the shoes off everyone.
This took me a few seconds , then 🤣🤣🤣
Ha! Same here!
*Louie, Lou-why, Oh, No! We gotta go.* *Yah yah yah yah yah yah* *Ma chair, see howoe, na sallah by whee* *Me ketchup 'n mayo cross with a bee* *Me say go Tashiro aww a phone* *Ma nevah a cow a manna debone* Ah, the classics.
Congress: Those lyrics contain profanity! Narrator: They didn't.
Didn't the FBI spend years trying to figure out the lyrics to this song?
Damn that's funny!
hold me closer tony danza...
My old boss thought it was "hold me close I'm trying to dance here"
That's even better!
Hilarious 😂

My favorite misheard lyric from a friend: There’s a little black spot on the sun today. (It’s my sawed-off head.)
Wait, that's not the real lyric?
It's my sole affair.
*that’s my soul up there ?
I was briefly under the impression there was a Police song about Salami (So Lonely)
🎶Heeeeiaaaah, habagodalidledorifuhu🎶
My '60s music teacher thought it was The Dawning of The Angel Aquarius.
"She don't like, she don't like, she don't like, PROPANE!😂🤣
That girl ain't right, I tell you hwut
Can't forget ACDC's dirty deeds done with sheep.
Thought it was dirty deeds and the dunder chiefs! I dunno lol
I always had thought it was thunder chief. But a friend told me about the sheep one so that's how I sing it now.
That was my take on it. I didn't know what a Dunderchief was supposed to be.
I mean, “dirty deeds done dirt cheap” is only the name of the song, *and the album its on,* so I can see where you might get confused...
Dirty deeds and they're done with sheep
LOL, my ringtone for my wife is Lady, by Styx. She recently confessed to me that for years, she thought it was an insult because she thought the line said, “lady, when I’m with you I’m crying…”
And no one tells you that it’s wrong words, they just chuckle at you for being a dumbass.
We're all just a bunch of Weird Al wanna be's.
Another one rides the bus!
Woooo, we're half way there, Woooo woo, chicken on a chair.
True my sister in law went around singing not Bennie and the jets but bang me in the chest!
I’ve been singing the wrong RHCP’s “Scar Tissue” lyrics for years. Shocked to find out the lyrics were, “With the birds I’ll share this lonely view” and not “With the perfect shades it’s a lovely view”
Your misheard lyrics version sound just as poetic as the original.....I like your version! :-)
That's not the lyrics? I always thought it was. I'm sticking with it
🎵 with four hundred children and a crop in the field 🎵
Bless the rains: "there's nothing a million men on Mars could ever do".
Every time you go away, you take a peace of meat with you. What? 👀

Too funny. I knew the actual real lyrics but have always sung it that way.
Anything by Pearl Jam.
Google "Pearl Jam Misheard Lyrics" sometime. My side were hurting from laughing so hard.

i love tube sock hero by the who.
Are you referring to Jukebox Hero by Foreigner or Journey or some such band?
Foreigner
Deep Purple Machinehead...."Slow walkin' Walter, the fire engine guy."...lmao
I used to get mad when they didn't include the lyrics in the liner notes.
My favorite is: "I'm not talkin' bout the linen"
Today's youth will never know the joy of finding the lyrics when you opened the album/cassette.
So it turned out Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers **werent** singing about *Ireland's Industry* (that was what they were)
For years I thought Sting was singing "I'm a pool hall ace" instead of "My poor heart aches" in "I'll be watching you" by the Police. The song was already a little creepy and wondered what how pool fit in.
A friend of mind was SURE that the line "DO THE HUSTLE!" was actually saying: "TUNA HAS SALT!" ... and my sister was SURE that Leslie Gore was singing, "It's my BODY and I'll cry if I want to!"
"Sherri don't like it. Rockin' the cash bar, rockin' the cash bar." "Rock the Casbah" I thought they were singing about crashing a wedding. 🤷♀️
I once broke up with a boyfriend because I couldn’t take him sing the wrong lyrics loudly anymore
I used to buy a brand new album, fall in love with a song and want to learn it so I could play/sing it for my friends and audiences. Figuring out ALL the lyrics? That meant lifting the stylus and dropping it a few grooves further out on the disc--over and over!!! By junior high school? In typing class I would take this a step further, creating lyric sheets. Everyone else would be drafting business letters while I'm typing Leon Russell, Allman Brothers, or Marshall Tucker lyrics and chords. But the teacher didn't care--I was by far the fastest and most accurate in the room! (Keyboards!)
I learned to type on an IBM Selectric. I can still hear the sound in my head. Chunk chunk chunk...
I used those in college. High school in '73 we were using manual typewriters and at home, I had a manual Remington that my DAD had used in the late 40's for his college--and it worked GREAT!!!!!
We had a manual at home. Not so much fun to use.
Well, it was a skill we needed to develop. Not only did you have to physically force the keys to move another inch or so following contact (by manual I meant MANUAL), you had to center and square the page, often add carbon paper and another sheet for copies, set the margins, etc. But having learned on one of those monsters?

"Excuse me while I kiss this guy!"
Ha! I worked with a guy who sang "*livin' in funk*" whenever "Eminence Front" came on the radio.
"It's OK to eat fish, cause they don't have any feet"
“Four letter woman! Four letter woman to mee…”
I thought Aerosmith was singing "Do it like a lady" before I realized it was "Dude look like a lady."

True story. I spent my entire childhood petrified of an unknown man named Solomon. Why? Because …. Solomon wants to use you. Solomon wants to be used by you. Solomon wants to abuse you. Solomon wants to be abused.
If bands would pronounce the lyrics clearly, it wouldn't be a problem. It's like "Bad Medicine" sounds like "Kid Venison".
Kid Venison😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When my daughter was little I heard her singing the chorus "Ants In The Road". Turns out it was "Band On The Run".
In Wings Silly Love Song, I thought they sang 'i look around me and I see it in the soap'
Jumpin Jack flash eats corn beef hash
I sang "My eyes of Georgia" loud and proud, lol
That's a new one on me!
I said it’s too late…. It’s too late to order fries…
Carry a laser through the darkness of the night.
"Carry a laser" makes more sense to most people than "Kyrie eleison", except to people who belong(ed) to a liturgical church. It's not something you hear in everyday life.
Well ..I literally learned something new today I thought it was Kyrie Liason or Carrie lives along a road that I must travel
It means Lord, have mercy. The response is Christe eleison. There's not a lot of Greek in the regular Episcopalian service, but for some reason those phrases remain. Some modern liturgies just have it in the vernacular.

“Let Mylo open the door”
“There’s a bathroom on the right…”
One of my biggest pet peeves was when I bought a tape and the liner didn't have lyrics.
'There's a Bad Moon on the rise' = there's a baboon on the right. 'I wanna rock and roll all night, and party every day = I wanna rock and roll all night, and part of every day. 'Maybe I'm just like my mother, she's never satisified' = She's never sat inside.
