I thought it was "for you and your kinG" for way too long when I used to hear/sing We Wish You A Merry Christmas. :oops:
My then 5yo granddaughter taught it me it was Kin and not King I had been singing it wrong for over 50 years.

I misheard it as:

Ladies leave your man at home
'cos the place is jumpin'
and your crack is full of groan

I remember thinking, whoa steady on!

The song need you now by lady A when she signs " said I wouldn't call, but I lost all control and I need you now" I thought was " said I wouldn't call, but I've the control and I need you now" I felt heard! Lol

My husband thinks Bob Marley ‘No woman no cry’ is ‘No woman no child’. Makes me laugh every time I mean... the clues in the name of the song right?!

First time I heard Madonna's song Erotica, I thought she was singing 'Bill Oddie, Bill Oddie, put your hands all over my body', instead of 'Erotic, Erotic, put your hands all over my body'.

My version is just wrong.
Like this, you mean?

Going back a bit but in "What's the Frequency Kenneth?" by REM, I always thought he was singing "you thought that ironing was the shackles of youth". It's actually "irony".

Also in "Live Your Life" by T.I. and Rihanna, she sings "Live your life, aint got no time for no hedgehogs (haters)...live your life, cos I'm a big butt-kisser (paper-chaser)".

My boyfriend thought the lyrics to spice girls spice up your life when they sing “Hai Si Ja Hold tight” was “taxi ride, hold tight”. So I googled it to show him and he said me and google where wrong! 🙄😣😑 don’t think so pal, I grew up singing that song.
