I think Sam was looking for lyrics we have personally misheard rather than these famous ones. I can think of a couple of my own. In the Michael Jackson song "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" I always thought it was "Keep on 'til the cows come home". My wife and one of her friends ridiculed me while explaining it was actually, "Keep on with the force, don't stop". What the fuck does that mean? I like my lyric better. Also, when my friends and I were young burnouts getting high in Evanston basements we all thought the lyric was "Fairy wears boots dancing with a bra". I was picturing a true cross-dressing fairy. Only years later did I realize the fairy was actually dancing with a dwarf. |

To make JORR happy, I'll post something I've personally misheard. I swore in the song Elderly Woman Behind The Counter in A Small Town from Pearl Jam that Eddie says, "I swear I recognize your breasts". And if you think of it, I think it makes sense, or I just have looked at boobs too much in my lifetime. |

I always knew that was "white-winged dove", but when I was a boy my grandfather used to regale me with tales of Big Jim Colosimo running the White Wing Union. I developed an alternate set of lyrics for the song about sweeping up horseshit with the chorus, "Just like the White Wing does". |

In Billy Jean for some reason it sounds like "chair" to me, not kid. "the chair is not my son." Billie Jean is not my lover She's just a girl who claims that I am the one But the kid is not my son She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son |

Is it split up on a dark sad night or split up on the docks that night? |

http://www.amiright.com/misheard/song/t ... blue.shtml This song is a treasure trove of misheard lyrics, and most of these were mistakes I made! It's not "Papa's banquet wasn't big enough" or "Timmy, don't I know your name"? Wow. Next time we describe a comeback album as "so-and-so's Blood on the Tracks," it should mean "I don't know what the fuck the singer is saying." |

My kid and her friend are currently in a heated argument over whether its, "if we could turn back time to the gold ol' days" or its "if we could turn back time to the good dope days". In either case, I've decided to run away from my house. |

I'll never leave your pizza burning. Also from Duel of the Fates, John Williams' soundtrack for a Phantom Menace, the choir clearly says "CORN ON THE COB, CORN ON THE KABOB" |

That link doesn't even make clear what the actual docks at night/dark sad night lyric is. |

I was a "Papa's banquet wasn't big enough" guy until literally 10 seconds ago when I read this post. |
