misheard lyrics

Cupra280

Maroon 5's Sugar is on the radio a lot.

There is a lyric at the start of the song that is:
"When I'm without you
I'm something weak"

But for ages I thought it was:
"When I'm without you
I'm soaked in wee"

Major Lazer, Lean on.
The bit where MØ is singing 'Lean on, lean on lean on......' to fade I keep thinking it sounds like 'Nee Naw, Nee Naw, Nee Naw' like an ambulance or police car driving away.

When I was younger I always heard Chicken Dipper in Green Days Holiday.

"I beg to dream and differ Chicken Dipper from the hollow lies"

I come looking for a job
But I get no offers
Just a come-on from the BOYS on Seventh Avenue

Wham's Last Christmas.

"This year, to save me from tears"

I always heard: "This year, the semi frontiers" (because of the snow, trees & mountains)

Am I the only one?

No I thought the same

Not misheard and I think it's well known but we use to always sing as kids, "I can see Deirdre now Lorraine has gone" instead of "I can see clearly now the rain..."

And Tina Turner sang “I can’t stand Lorraine against my window...”

I always wondered how it was that Paul McCartney foresaw Star Wars about 3/4 years before it was released. ("Jet" , where at one stage he seems to be singing about "Darth Vader")

Steve Harley/Cockney Rebel's song The Best Years of our lives.
The first line is European maids, hard to ignore
I've been singing You'll be amazed for about 40 years.

The Kooks Naive

My version until corrected after about 2 years;
"I know she knows that I'm not from Alaska"

should be;

"I know she knows that Im not fond of asking"

Very old song by Bacarra.... sorry I’m a lady, sorry I’m a lady la la la la la...

Growing up we called cat **** cats malackey...

HAve no idea why I thought someone would write a song about cat poo.?

Always had a feeling I wasn't getting the words to Desert Moon totally right, so I checked them out today. It turns out the line I thought was

"The weight upon our memories is a tiny curse" is

"The waiter poured our memories into tiny cups".

In the song Games Without Frontiers by Peter Gabriel, I used to sing along “she, so fcuked it up”, the actual line was the song title translated into French - “jeux sans frontiers”.

And I was in France one summer listening to that album endlessly on my Walkman, yet I never copped it...

But that is the lyric. Chimney = slang for black eye.

I thought a chimney was a slang term for a black guy with a massive mickey.

Mishearing lyrics as a kid is one thing but I’d no excuse for thinking that Lady Gaga actually sang “I’m on the edge of Gorey”.
