misunderstood lyrics
 

so, i'm sitting here singing 'wanna be starting something' and i realize that he is not saying . . .i'm a vegetable, yeah-yeah! i'm a vegetable, yeah-yeah!'


anyone else have moments of screaming the wrong words?

Yep, in Tim McGraw's "One of These Days" he sings:

Patty Sue was a small town beauty
I took one look at her and had to pull her to me.

For the longest time I thought that he said:

Patty Sue was a small town beauty
I took one look at her and had to pull her tooney (referring to her butt).

Another misunderstanding...

When the song first came out (prior to me learning the lyrics) I thought that George Strait's "Run" was about him telling a girl to run and get the heck away from him. I made a comment to one of my sisters about how stupid the song was and she told me that what he was saying was for her to run to him because he can't wait to be with her again. Imagine my embarrassment.

For the longest time I thought RHCP's "Zephyr Song" was about about being on a cell phone. The word Zephyr and cellphone sound a lot alike!

Re: misunderstood lyrics
 

so what are the right words there? all i hear is vegetable.... :confused:

In "Another Brick in the Wall" I thought they were saying "No dog star chasm in the classroom."

When I was younger I thought that Elvis was singing My Marsha Cup instead of I'm All Shook Up.... I didn't figure out what the real words were till sometime in junior high...

i'm pretty good w/ lyric comprehension- but i have to include one that my friends 7-year-old sister was singing one day

It was Macy Gray's "I Try" and the REAL lyrics are:

"My world CRUMBLES when you are not near."

Well little Danielle was singing:

"I blow BUBBLES when you are not near."

I nearly DIED laughing.

Prince really says:
Controversy!

...but it sounds like he says:
Got your PUSSY! :eek:

No he doesn't, retard.

Your got damn mama!!!

Dave Matthews "Crash":

I always thought he said:
"I'm the king of the castle
And you're the love I asked for"

When in reality the lyrics are:
"I'm the king of the castle
And you're the dirty rascal"

I like my lyrics better ;)

Also, I thought the Ashanti/Fat Joe song was "Last Night" not "What's Love". Oops.

NSync's "Just Got Paid"
The REAL lyrics are:

Just got paid
Friday night
Party hoppin'
Feelin' right
Booty shakin'
All around
Pump that jam
While we get it down

I thought they were singing....

Just got laid
Friday night
Party hoppin'
Feelin' right
Booty shakin'
All around
Hump that chair
While we get it on

When one of my sisters was little, she thought that Prince song said "Yabba dabba do" instead of "I would die for you!"

And then, after hearing George Strait's "Check Yes or No," my dad rolled his eyes and said, "That is the dumbest song I have ever heard." I asked him why, and he said, "Come on...surely they can come up with better lyrics than 'Can't kiss her nose'!" He also thought the Divinyls' "I Touch Myself" was "I Cut Myself." :D

My friend's mother thought he said "Count your blessings"!! LOL

There' s a song by AC/DC called "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", but I always thought they were saying "Dirty Deeds and the Thunder Chiefs"! LMAO! I still sing it now, even though I know the lyrics. I think my variation sounds cooler!!LOL
