For years I thought that Kim Carnes was signing:
'And she knows just what it takes to make a crow blush' in Bette Davis Eyes.

Is it "to make a pro blush?" I never could get what she was saying.

I thought the new Katy Perry song was "Turn it up it's your favourite song. Dance , dance , dance to the disco drum". My mind was blown to realise "disco drum" is actually "distortion"
My 5 yr old is going around singing Ed Sheeran
"My, my , my, my , my pretty little homemade girl ":)

So weird, I was just listening to that the other day on the radio and laughing to myself while singing 'to make a crow blush' :-D
tbh I don't even want to know what the real words are now as I always get a laugh out of the wrong ones!

I always thought that was, "Farmer... I know you don't really fúcking care... lick your bum bum there. A wibbly wobbly wibbly wobbly wibbly wobbly wibbly wobbly wonder... lick your bum bum there." Something about farmers licking ice pops and arses.

From Sam Cooke - Don't Know Much About History
My ex thought "Don't know what a slide rule is for" was "Don't know what its like or who its for"

Mind you, she probably doesn't know what a slide rule is. Or what its for.

I only found out this year that the backing vocal in Games Without Frontiers by Peter Gabriel is NOT "She's so popular..."

No it's "Jeux sans frontières" which is French for games without frontiers

He told me that he loved me

"I'm Ho-ney,
Ho-ney, Ho-ney, Ho-ney
So Ho-ney
I'm Ho-ney, Ho-ney, Ho-ney...
I'm Ho-ney, Ho-ney, Ho-ney tonight"

I must have been under 10 and thought it was a great song to sing out playing in the garden, going shopping with my mum and walking down the road. The looks that I got! I doesn't help that my accent made it sound like "haw-ney"

In the this song by Anne-Marie, it sounds like she is singing 'shower the horse' rather than 'ciao, adios', so many got the lyrics wrong that she put a horse in the video.

The average Irish 7 year old not have a great knowledge of American 50s cars, heard the following :

"And she'll have fun fun fun
Til her daddy takes her tee shirt away."

Even then, I knew there was something not quite right about it.
