My wife went her entire life thinking the song “In a Godda Devita” was “In the Garden of Eden” until I told her different.

I wonder how younger generations miss hear lyric


My niece was 5 when "All About that Bass" came out and she sang "No trouble" because "trebled" was not in her vocabulary.

"I want a prostitute..."

Another Michael Jackson misheard lyric is in the song "D.S."

According to the lyric sheet he is saying "Dom Sheldon" is a "cold man."

I hear "Tom Sneddon is a cold man."

Tom Sneddon is the D.A. who prosecuted him for child molestation.

“Blue” Eiffel 65.

I heard: “ I’m blue I believe I can die, I believe I can die, I believe I will die. “

Billie Jean's not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the chair's not my son

Blues Traveler - Run Around

What it says:
And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and mine, the fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line

What people hear:
And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and mine, I think she farted
And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line

I assume you are referring to the Manfred Mann cover. The correct lyric is:
"Revved up like a deuce"

The Bruce Springsteen original is:
"Cut loose like a deuce"

Both referring to a 1932 Ford hot rod. Deuce meaning the "2" in the year.

Just like the Beach Boys song Little Deuce Coupe.

Van Halen, Running With the Devil. He says,"rock on". When I was a kid I thought he was singing, "Lock Jaw".
