There's a bathroom on the right?

Hold me closer Tony Danza.

Rock the Casbah,

don’t even know how many ways there are to get it wrong

Here I am! Raunchy like a hurricane. Here I am Rock me like a hurricane. Scorpions

Déjà vu

I get a bit territorial at times.

Oh god. I do this on a daily basis. And those around me at the time are rewarded with fits of laughter. For example, Shake it like a sausage as opposed to salt shaker, Rompe Rompe Rompe, let me out!!!, I still don’t know what it actually says, and I was convinced Bed by J Holiday was a song about killing someone. Here’s how:

Original Lyrics – Wanna put my fingers through your hair, Wrap me up in your legs, and love you till your eyes roll back
What I heard – Put my finger through your head, wait till your eyes roll back.
I’ma put you to bed, bed, bed.

@AstroChuck
Sorry Astro. I’ve only been here since March 2009. Had I known…

The ants are my friends, they’re blowin’ in the wind.

I’ve got a black magic woman and she’s trying to take a pebble out of me. Care of Dharma and Greg. :)

I’m really good with lyrics, but one that used to get me was that song by Macy Gray “I Try”.

Lyrics: “My world crumbles when you are not here.”
Mine: I wear goggles when you are not here.

Revved up like a douche

@KatawaGrey
Nice LOL

@chris6137
Rona like dusion? Oh ya!

@chris6137 Haha. The douche song. That’s a good one.

I just found this site: kissthisguy.com
Theres some funny one’s on there

A friend of mine thought that “If I kiss you where it’s sore ” from “better” by Regina Spektor was “If I kiss you wearing shorts” for the longest time.

Elton John- She’s got electric boobs

Let’s pee in the corner, Let’s pee in the spotlight.

When I was a kid, I used to like that Laser Song
You know, the one:

Carry a laser down this road that I must follow
Carry a laser through the darkness of the night.

From “Do You Feel” on Frampton Comes Alive, quitar with voice synthesizer:

“Do you fee-el? Do you fee-el? I want to fuck you” (female voice in audience yells, “Yes!”)

Of course, actual lyric is, “I want to thank you”

@chris6137 I always thought it was Wrapped up like a douche, she’ll roll you in the night.

I always thought it was “wrapped up like a douche…. jinx, @chyna :)

@Likeradar we actually got into a semi-argument about this at work. I was wrong.

What’s that Steve Miller Band song they question the lyrics about in the movie Swingers?

@SeventhSense- It’s cool. I’m just messing with you. That was asked almost a year ago.

I interpreted “all my single ladies” as “I’m a sexy legging.” (I think it’s by Beyonce, not sure)

My five year old was singing along to Bon Jovi when her brothers were playing Rock Band.

“Living on a Pear”

It was so cute!

I see skies of blue and clouds of white.
The bright blessed day, the dogs say goodnight
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.

England Dan and John Ford Coley’s “I’d Really Love to See You Tonight.”

I thought it went I’m not talking about the linen, and I don’t want to change your mind, but really it went I’m not talking ‘bout moving in and I don’t want to change your life.

@benjaminlevi: That is awesome. I will totally sing it like that now. :)

My sister will never live this one down – but she was very young when it happened:

“Pussy on the highway and show me a sign”
“Put me on the highway and show me a sign”
Eagle, Take It To the Limit

Oh, as a kid! As a kid I thought “Silent Night” was about a plump maiden—“round young virgin.” And because my father had shown me his glow-in-the-dark watch, I knew enough to sing “radium beams from Heaven afar.”

I had Biblical kings all mixed up with Santa when I sang in “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear” about “the world and Solomon still in his sleigh.”

Finally I remembered, Steve Miller’s the Joker.
The one where he sings about the marionettes:

Some people call me the space cowboy.
Yeah! Some call me the gangster of love.
Some people call me Maurice,
‘Cause I speak of the puppets of love.

@Jeruba the words aren’t “round young virgin”?

Seriously? “Round yon virgin, “yon” meaning, “yonder, over there.” All is bright around that virgin mother and child over there.

@Jeruba um, I was kidding? haha?... yeah, seriously. so ashamed :(.

If you never read the words but only heard and sang them, you’d probably never pick it up, especially if everyone around you were singing it wrong. “Young” suits our ears (and our Christmas-card images). But “yon” it is. And “round,” of course, is “around” and not an adjective meaning candidate for Weight Watchers.

I’ve rarely even heard it sung. The few times I have, I pictured Mary as a young, healthy & pregnant (round) virgin… :) Thanks for clearing it up!

She was no longer pregnant! “Mother and child.” Christmas. Anyway, it’s an easy mistake. You’re welcome.

I was once singing in the car and UB40s version of Red, Red Wine came on. My daughter heard me singing “Stay Close to Me” and started laughing. She said that made more sense than what she always thought they were saying—“Stapled to Me”.

“Bake sale! Bake sale! Bake sale!” instead of “Exhale! Exhale! Exhale!” for “Breathe” by Prodigy. I knew that couldn’t be right, but it did sort of sound like it.

I have completely made up all new words to Yellow Ledbetter, Black and State of Love and Trust by Pearl Jam (Of course) I could not even begin to go through what I say and what the songs really say. But its kinda fun to sing it wrong anyway. Everytime I listen to them I make up different words.

@sjmc1989
OMG- eddie vedder is a whole topic.

I know I sang Black like this for the longest time
She’s an empty canvas, Under sheets of glass, her legs spread out before me as her body once did and even after I found out the true words I still sing it my way. You can do that with about every PJ song though

Ok it’s shades of empty canvas right?.. and then it’s all a blur…he’s smart because he can always do a great live gig because no one knows what the fuck he’s saying.

Sheets of empty canvas, Untouched sheets of clay,Were laid spread out before me as her body once did. Oh god they put on an awesome show have you seen them?

No never did but I think I like the lyrics better when I don’t know what he’s saying.

For the longest time I thought Bob Marley was singing about a buffalo soldier from the Bank of America.

I have no idea why I thought that.

I’ve seen Pearl Jam live twice and both shows are in my top five shows of all time. If you haven’t gone to one you definitely should! It’s well worth the ticket price. Oh, yeah.

I get the words to most of their songs but I’ve heard Yellow Ledbetter done different ways. That one always confuses me, but by that point of the show I don’t mind anymore. You just go with it. :^>

@cyndyh I have seen them once and have been trying to go see them again but Eddie is just doing a solo tour this summer which I would also love to go to. My dad has seen them I think like 5 times. They are amazing

Truly amazing. I think I’d go see any of them doing anything if given the chance. Later this week my husband’s taking me to see Flight to Mars. Yay!

In the SF bay area, these are called Mondagreens, and written about by a newspaper columnist.
The song “Groovin’” sang about you and me and Leslie.
