My personal fave has always been a line in the Doobies' "China Grove":

"Well the people in the pizza love everybody
They are the talk of the town"

To this day, I refuse to Google the actual lyrics because I know there's no way they can approach that level of awesome ridiculousness.

Whatcha got?

Some here.

Speaking of, in Turning Japanese, is it Cyclone Ranger, or Psyched Lone Ranger?

Oh say can you see? By the Dahnzerly light?

I always wondered what a Dahnzerly light was - was it like this large primitive lantern that they used to use in the 1700's?

And little Early Pearly
Gave my anus curly-wurly
Then asked me if I needed a ride

Friend at work blew me away the other day. I was listening to David Bowie's Suffragette City and he walked by during the chorus. He then sang "I want to suck on dem titties". He caught me off guard with that one.

"Killing me softly with his saw"

I always thought it said saw instead of song until about a year ago

I had always heard the opening line of John Conlee's Common Man as "They made port wine as we prepared to dine." Wasn't until I heard it live on the Opry this spring that I realized he was saying "The maid poured wine..."

Well morning comes and you're still with her
And the bus and the tourists are gone
And you've thrown away the choice and lobster ticket
So you have to stay on
But the drum-beat strains of the night remain
In the rhythm of the new-born day
You know sometime you're bound to lose her
BUt for now you're going to stay
In the year of the cat.

I had a friend, who as a kid thought the lyrics to The Wall included:

"The Dukes of Hazard In the Classroom".


Not a misheard lyric...but a had another friend who thought Wichita Lineman was about a football player...."I am a lineman for the county".

I was talking to my wife about this last night...she mentioned one she misheard when we were in high school.

"Is it any wonder I've got too much dye on my hair".

We had a trash disco night in high school and one of the teachers thought "shake your groove thing" was "shake your poon tang."
