Misheard lyrics that make more sense than the correct lyrics?

Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start The Fire"

Misheard Lyrics. "Color wars, I can't take it anymore!"

Correct lyrics- "Cola wars, I can't take it anymore!"

I thought Billy was singing about the racial tensions between different races, and not being able take it anymore.... Would make sense that racial tensions would drive him crazy, but the Pepsi vs. Coke being the thing to send him over the edge was stupid....

Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit."

Misheard, "Remember what the dormouse said, "Keep your head, keep your head."

Correct- "Remember what the dormouse said, "Feed your head, feed your head."

Since White Rabbit is JA's mocking of "Alice In Wonderland"(they said they made it to make fun of the parents who told their children not to do drugs, but yet allowed them to read AIW and watch the movie which was loaded with druglike things, basically AIW seemed like an acid trip with disappearing, giggling tiles, a mysterious re-appearing and disappearing cat, and I think talking food), I thought the line was, "Keep your head," as the dormouse in AIW does talk about keeping your head(or at least implies it). The dormouse in AIW never said, "Feed your head,"....I was surprised that the lyric is "Feed your head," not "Keep your head,".

 

From Led Zeppelin -
Misheard - Jiggle-headed woman ain't got no soul

Actual - Big-legged woman ain't got no soul

 

misheard- theres a bathroom on the right

Excuse me while I kiss this guy

On purple haze

 

Ha posted at same time
There was a kid in high school that was walking around singing, Dirty Deeds...thunder Chiefs! We where like how did u get that out of done dirt cheap. Lol

 

Wow to this day I thought it was 'Been laid'

 

"Paul is dead ..."

 

Wife had been singing " Everybody's gonna' wanna' go" to Quinn the Eskimo for years,........the real lyrics are " Everybody's gonna' wanna' dose".

She was retroactively embarrassed for forty plus years of not knowing that and singing it out quite loudly at shows.

 

Rip Her To Shreds by Blondie.

Misheard Lyric: "She's so tall, rip her to shreds."

Correct Lyric "She's so dull, rip her to shreds."

My misheard lyric makes sense because I thought it was about a homely woman being jealous of a female model and was so insecure, she wanted to rip the model to shreds.(I thought tall was a reference to female models generally being tall)

 

This one always tripped me up: "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da."

 

Worst ever:
"Big Ole Jed had a light on"....

No, the correct lyric is:
"Big ole jet air-lin-er (Steve Miller's "Jet Airliner")

 

I suppose that has to do with the fact that....

And when their eloquence escapes me
Their logic ties me up and rapes me

 

I've always found the "Their logic ties me up and rapes me" lyric creepy! O.O

 

Yeah, and a lot of people really think that "Forget You" is the real title of the tune. (Ain't that some sh{bleep}!)

 

Another Police one but, it was just me - my friends wanted to send me to a hearing specialist...

"I'm a pool hall ace"

"my poor heart aches"

Every breath you take

 

Blinded by the light
Wrapped up like a D(oh)uche
In the middle of The Night

Correct: Revved up like a Deuce

 

I wonder why Robert Palmer wanted an "Orange Julius" on his chest in Bad Case Of Loving You?

Check out the lyrics to almost any Nirvana song. I think I have misheard all off them.

 

Same song;
misheard: Trouble in the sewers
actual: Trouble in the Suez
