Misheard lyrics

[littlepup]

Recent ones, they're embarrassingly juvenile.

Bruno Mars - Uptown Funk - "This one, for them hood girls, them good girls, straight masterpieces" - Thought it said '"straight masturbates". Couldn't understand how they got away with it...I'm not even convinced it's not intentional

Dido - Surrender - "I will go down with this ship and I won't put my hands up and surrender" - I knew it couldn't be but I hear "I will poop myself and surrender"

 

[coconochanel]

Ashanti foolish I sing 'see my days are gone without you' when its 'see my days are COLD without you'.

 

[MilkAndTwoSugars]

Wham's Last Christmas:

I thought the first line was "a facetime lover"

"A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore me apart
Ooh, ooh, now I've found a real love
You'll never fool me again"

Oldie I know, but I've only really started paying attention to lyrics recently and clearly got this one wrong lol.

 

[Lovegin]

i thought, until about 10 seconds ago, that it was coco heart .........oh dear

Me as well, I thought it was cocoa heart

 

[LittleMy]

Not me, but was listening to Willow by Taylor Swift and my husband said to me “why is she singing ‘lick my plants, that’s my man?’”

 

[ProphecyGirl]

Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight - R.E.M

I thought the chorus was 'Call me Chad Baker'

Only a little 1 but I found out today that for 40+ years I’ve been singing the Men at Work song Down Under wrong
I thought it was “buying bread from a man in Brazil”
Nope it’s “buying bread from a man in Brussels”
It so sounds like Brazil

How would that rhyme with muscles?

 

[LittleMy]

Anyone else had trouble with 'Blinded by the light'?

Yes!

 

[Cheapseats]

 

[Melian]

In "lucky you" by Lightning Seeds, he sings "oh lucky you". I keep hearing "unlucky you"

Mercury Revs "Godess on a highway" i keep hearing "gotta sing a highway.

The clue is in the title!

 

[Captainmouse]

Ditto
dude by beany man, the lyrics sounded a bit suss, so I assumed I had misheard

 

[Caramel Latte]

Sia's song 'let's love' i used to sing it 'ransom'

 

[MilkAndTwoSugars]

"Owner of a lonely heart"= "owner of a lonely horse" ???

I used to think this was "oo I love a lonely heart"

 

[JakeM]

For the past 22 years i’ve gotten a lyric to ‘When i grow up - Pussy Cat Dolls’ wrong. It blew my mind.
i always thought it was “when i grow up, i want to be famous, i want to be a star, i want to have boobies” BUT ITS NOT. ITS GROUPIES.

I thought it was that too. I only found out that it wasn’t last year.

Freed from desire by Gala - only just found out it’s “my lovers got no money he’s got his strong beliefs”

I was convinced it was “he’s got his trumberlice”

I’m with you there!

 

[TapToBoreMeRigid]

I have quite literally just realised that Whigfield sings "like you baby" not "thank you baby" after the first line "Saturday night and the air is getting hot". How have I got this wrong for so long?!

Oh my God. Haha thank you. I was blind but now I see.

 

[Itsallaboutmememe]

We where in the car once and my son (then aged about 8) asked if we could play ‘the Willy Willy song’

i looked my my sister in law-she looked at me-where the hell has he picked up a porno?!

who am I going to kill for exposing my innocent poppet to this crap?!

la ketchup song…

 

[Giggling Squid]

Well, it turns out that it’s not “jewels remain still gleaming…”

Who knew?!

Genuinely always thought I’d misheard it as Jules rimet

Nova Twins - Choose Your Fighter
I would always hear Gingivitis

 

[KINGAA]

I thought of another today when I heard the song... Backstreet Boy - I Want It That Way

You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way
But we are two worlds apart
Can’t reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

I thought it was,Can’t be true, your heart
