Icky Thump by The White Stripes

"Left alone I hit myself with a stone, went home, and learned how to clean up after myself"

I always knew what the actual lyrics are, but every time I heard that line I thought it sounded like

"Left alone I hit myself with a stone, went home, and learned how to clean a bathroom myself"

There are a lot of these for me, but one that's fresh in my mind because I listened to it last night is Red House Painters' "Medicine Bottle," where I heard:

"I didn't know you then, as well as you loved me"

But the actual lyric is:

"I didn't know you then, as well as you of me"

I like what I originally heard better because I think it establishes the disconnect between the narrator and his lover more.

Christina Aguilera- Beautiful

I am beautiful
No matter what they say
Words can't bring me down

I heard...

I am beautiful
No matter what they say
A worm can bring me down

-When I was a child I thought this was a song about being extremely weak, so weak that a worm could bump into the person in question and knock them to the ground. I thought this was really funny, and one time when I was riding in my dad's truck and this song was playing I explained why I thought the song was so funny and we shared a good laugh together.

Killing Joke - I can see tomorrow, hear the pandemonium.

I can teach your mama, how to play the rodeo.
