- Post subject: Misheard Lyrics
|
The thread about Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John, the king of the misheard lyric, made me think of this.
From "Love Lies Bleeding":
"I love that feeling in my hands/You can tell by the things that I do with another man" (real lyric: "And love lies bleeding in my hands/Oh it kills me to think of you with another man")
From "Tiny Dancer":
"Hold me closer, Tony Danza" (Real lyric: "Hold me closer tiny dancer")
Who has good misheard lyrics?

One of my favorites (though no one's ever heard it):
Power Trip - Soundgarden:
"I wanna be gay!" (Real lyric: "I wanna be king!"
It really does sound like that. Everyone I've played it for thinks so.

A couple of classics from family members who are notorious for belting out wrong lyrics:
"I Wanna Rock and Roll all night, and part of every day." (Kiss - duh...)
"In the green... green forest." (Tom Petty - Free Fallin')
"Ahhhh... Better than Oasis." (INXS - Elegantly Wasted)

Glorified G by Pearl Jam:
"45 vesions of a pelican." real lyric: "Glorified version of a pellet gun."
Also, one of my friends when I was little thought "Hold my hand" by Hootie was really "Blow my head". And we didn't even remotely understand the sexual innuendo at the time.

I always heard Pearl Jam singing "45 virgins and a pelican". Pretty close, I guess.
I always like John Fogerty reminding me that "there's a bathroom on the right". (Bad Moon Rising)

So it isn't "wrapped up like a douche, another loner in the night"? Learned something.
