[Pike]

Guys listen to this (http://youtu.be/B9DsjMlJmRE?t=2m26s)

Because I totally thought that's what they were saying until today.

what are some of your stories of mishearing lyrics?

Now I'm feeling so fly like a bees dick

[sharkythesharkdogg]

Oh jeez, all of them. Anything by R.E.M. because most of the time those lyrics make no sense anyway.

The most famous will always be, " 'scuse me, while I kiss this guy!!!"

[Matthewtheman]

Ow now brown cow, Ow now brown cow
Ow now brown cow, Ow now brown cow
I have to get this, poop from my anus!
Here we are now, entertain us!
Cause this song is, really heinous!
Here we are now, entertain us!

[Cloudane]

My most famous case of misheard lyrics (I wrote them down because I was trying to learn the song, when I was about 10, and my auntie discovered it :redface:) (it was her music, incidentally she listened to a lot of REM as well) was Two Princes by the Spin Doctors.

Highlights include

"This one said he wants to buy you rockets
Aim at his head, now"

"This one he got a pricey racket
That's what I said now
Got some big sneakers with his jacket
Aim at his head now"
(lots of headshots in my adaptation!)

"You marry me, your father will just snore you
You'll need his hat, now"

"Merry him, merry me
I'm the oompa loompa baby can't you see
Ain't got no future or vanity
But I don't want a picture of a heart to beat
I don't want a picture of a heart to beat"

[Unbreakable Will]

What I heard;


You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
And with a word all my love came rushing out
And every whisper, it's the worst,
Emptied out by a single word
There is a hollow in me now

So I put my faith in something unknown
I'm living on such sweet lovin'
But I'm tired of hope with nothing to hold
I'm living on such sweet lovin'

I then thought; :smug: dirty girl.

What the lyrics actually are;

You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
And with a word all my love came rushing out
And every whisper, it's the worst,
Emptied out by a single word
There is a hollow in me now

So I put my faith in something unknown
I'm living on such sweet nothing
But I'm tired of hope with nothing to hold
I'm living on such sweet nothing

Then I was sad because she's getting the exact opposite.

Guys listen to this (http://youtu.be/B9DsjMlJmRE?t=2m26s)

did you know they actually AREN'T saying "ona, ona, onomatopoeia"?

That's clearly what they're saying though! what is the lyric actually?

Also I guess MC Hammer wasn't saying "King Tushdi", presumably some old Egyptian dude, but actually saying "Can't Touch This". Listening to it now I have absolutely no idea how I heard this wrong, because it's not exactly unclear.

Open Condom Style

cannot unhear

[Chris]

This one is for the boys with the booming system
Top down, AC with the cooling system
When he come up in the club, he be blazin' up
Got stacks on deck like he savin' up

And he ill, he real, he might got a deal
He pop bottles and he got the right kind of bill
He cold, he dope, he might sell coke
He always in the air, but he never fly coach

He a mothersmurfing trip, trip, sailor of the ship, ship
When he make it drip, drip kiss him on the lip, lip
That's the kind of dude I was lookin' for
And yes you'll get slapped if you're lookin' hoe
:confused:

OMG TOOOOOOO

[Cloudane]

I can see you
Standing outside of The Sun (pub)
I see you walking real slow
Smiling at everyone
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the poison summer has gone

[Pike]

For years I thought "I've got my mind set on you" was "Look out I might sit on you"

Needless to say I was confused

"She's got it
Oooh, baby she's got it.
I'm your penis, I'm for hire
It's your desire."

:lol:

Probably says something about me on a deeper level.

[Loony BoB]

I'm a little man
And I'm also evil
Also into cats
Also into caaaaaaaaaats

Haha, Jimi actually sang those lyrics live though.

Fall Out Boy Bang The Dolddrums

Best Friends

Ex- Friends to the end

Better off as lovers and not the other way around

Racing through the city, windows down

In the back a yellow chicken calls " You're a ho " ! Are we ? (Oowhoa,) " You're a Ho " ! Are we ? (Oowhoa,) " You're a ho " ! (Oowhoa)


It's actually

In the back of yellow checkered-cars. You're wrong Are we ? (oowhoa), you're wrong Are we ? ( oowhoa. )

[Shiny]

Well to be fair, it's hard to understand any of Fall Out Boys songs.
