Yes
Billy Ocean - When the Going Gets Tough "Go and get stuffed"

Paul Young - Every Time You Go Away "Every time you go away, you take a piece of meat with you"
 
Iron Maidan's Can I Play With Madness. My youngest son thought it was Can I Play With My Vest.

A dance track in the 90's may have been called Big Fun, I could have sworn they were singing We're having meatballs.
 
Went to a dance looking for a man saw Barbara Ann so I thought I'd take a chance.....

(for romance)
 
For years I thought the line in Good Vibrations went:
I love the purple clothes she wears.
Actually: I love the colourful clothes she wears.

The correct version still doesn't seem right to me now. They've had to crowbar in three syllables where two works better (inho)
 
Much as I love that song I can hardly make out any of the lyrics :(

There is ONE word in there that we thought was Oh So Naughty when we were about 11 when it came out!!

Not sure Mary Whitehouse noticed it though!! ;)


Ah I ve just looked on a lyrics site and found out that it was "my wife & my kids they PACKED UP and leaved me"!! :D:D
 
Queen , Bohemian Rhapsody.

Spare him his life for his Pork sausages
 
This one was on the radio (discussing it, not playing it)

The Stranglers - Golden Brown
"Lays me down, with my manchirans.....".....They were saying "What the hell is a manchiran?"

Michael Jackson - You Are Not Alone
"Your burgers are the best"
 
Paul Simon - Graceland

I hear

"As if I'd never noticed
The way she brushed her hair and farted"

not

"As if I'd never noticed
The way she brushed her hair from her forehead"
 
The Kooks... Naive.
I always think its sounds like theyre singing...

'I know that she knows that Im not from the the rough side'

theyre actually singing...
'I know that she knows that I'm not fond of asking' :whistling:


Also, my ex always used to sing to Oasis' Wonderwall...

'I said maybe youre going to want to shop at Sainsburys'
Instead of ...
'I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me'

I still sing the wrong lyrics all these years later, :lol:
 
Stevie Winwood - Higher love - always sounds like he's singing 'Bake me at high or low' instead of 'Bring me a higher love'.

The 'I predict a riot' song, my mum thought they were singing 'I call it tourettes' :lol:
 
Creedence Clearwater Revival...Bad Moon rising

Theres a bad moon on the rise heard sounds like theres a bathroom on the right, and

Doctor Hook.... Never got to hear those violins sounds like Never got to eat my vitamins
 
Don Henley, Boys of Summer

"I can see you, your bra strap's shining in the sun"

:lol:
 
New girls aloud song at the start, makes me chuckle

'did you ever think that loving was more than - poking me hole' :lol:

(actual is 'walking me home')
 
The Stranglers - Golden Brown
"Lays me down, with my manchirans.....".....They were saying "What the hell is a manchiran?"

"Through my mind she runs" I think!!
 
"Through my mind she runs" I think!!

With my mind, she runs. (I think) (I did think it was "With my man, she runs" then thought "He wasnt on the other bus was he?") lol
 
Kenny Rogers "You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, Four hundred children and a crop in the field"

Four hungry children
 
My brother in-law was happily singing away to Hot Chocolates' you sexy thing, but instead of the line being "I believe in miracles" he sang it as " I believe in Malcolm"

Poor blokes never going to forget that one :D

My Mum used to sing "I believe in Milko" !
Dont know if she fancied the milkman or what!! :lol:
 
Can I play with Matches - Iron Maiden!!!!! :D :exit:
 
Kenny Rogers "You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, Four hundred children and a crop in the field"

Four hungry children

I heard someone say they thought this was "You picked a fine time to leave me loose heeled, with four hundred children and a crop in the field" :D

Good job they thought it was CROP! ;)
 
My girlfriend was singing along to Bon Jovi when she was younger & her dad was killing himself laughing when he realised she was singing "standing on your mammas corpse" instead of porch :lol:
 
A friend of mine used to sing and dance along to a Foreigner song called Urgent. For some reason she thought the song was called Virgin, and she kept asking "what's a Virgency?"

Then she thought Ozzy Osbourne was singing about a Gravy Train :cuckoo::cuckoo:

And AC/DC were doing "Dirty Deeds Done With Sheep" :bang: :bang:
 
was it really Kiss the Sky?

we need the original versions too please!!! :D
 
Every Breath You Take - the Police

"How my poor heart aches" I've always heard as "I'm a pool hall ace"

and Macy Gray - I Try

"My world crumbles when you are not near" = " I wear goggles when you are not near"

Try it! Its true!
 
Just thought of another.

For years my brother thought the Fiddler on the Roof song was:

Some rise, Some sit.

(Sunrise, Sunset)
 
I must have something about pigs!

As I child I used to sing Hello Dolly with " find her a bacon knee, fellas" (a vacant knee)!

and now Snow Patrol, "Always fighting with bacon joints" (aching joints) :D
 
Just posted this over in the youtube thread.

MARCEL, THAT IS SUPERB!!! :clap: :D :lol:
 
5-6-7-8

"My poop scooping baby is driving my crazy, my obsession for a western, my dads called dave"


not a clue what the words are supposed to be mind!
 
I dont know how I forgot this one, but listening to Nickelback just now on LastFM, 'How You Remind Me' ...

'Cos sin & women must have damn near killed you'

its actually...

'Living with me must have damn near killed you' :D
