Theres a song on that last Burial album that me and my mates keep hearing as "I cant take no more in my eye". No idea wtf it actually is, mind.

Gang of Four - Anthrax

"ought to control what I do to my mind" >>Actual lyrics

Better lyric that I always heard<<<<<"Oh to control what I did to my mind."

I used to always think "how spooky. What on earth did he do to his mind that makes him wish he could go back and take the mental reigns? Was he brainwashed?"

Just heard "Rich Man's Spiritual" by Gordon Lightfoot for the first time, and seriously thought the 1st verse ended "I'm gonna get me a long white rope, and get me hung". The following verses made me look up the lyrics, though.

For years I thought Morphine's "Candy" went:

"Candy says she's made arrangements / for me in her cell"

Instead of "in the sand."

Huh. Not very interesting. Carry on.

I thought that when James Murphy shouts "Joy Division!" in Losing My Edge that he was shouting "Chinavision!" and I figured it was probably a really cool band I should learn more about.

Chinavision (altair nouveau), Thursday, 16 July 2009 23:46 (fourteen years ago) link

same with the band NCC (10cc)

Another "Beat It" mondegreen:

"Show 'em how fucking / strong is your fight!"

I always thought "Breed" by Nirvana woulda been better if it'd been about a girl named Giselle.

"Giselle! Giselle! Giselle! Giseeeeeeeeeeeelle!"

Love is the drug - Roxy music
"I said COKE, she said yes, dim the lights you can guess the rest"

Found out it was go not coke, personally i like my version better!

X-101, Thursday, 8 October 2009 12:16 (fourteen years ago) link

guess the rest = "damn, cant see it now!"

Mark G, Thursday, 8 October 2009 12:53 (fourteen years ago) link

wait, the lyric isn't "I said Coke, she said yes?" ...that's what I thought it was, uh, until now.

Talking Heads, "Dream Operator". When he sings "three angels above the whole human race", I thought for ages he was singing "the angels above Napoleon in rags". Come to think of it, I prefer my interpretation.

In smells like teen spirit, I could have swore Kurt Cobain sung "I'm a Beatle" in th chorus after he sings "a mosquito"...but turns out he was singing "my libido"...That guy always sung like he had a shotgun in his mouth...

They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl you know she act so rough rough rough

And I say doggy, doggy, doggy, doggy, meow meow meow
till' you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems
