Song Lyrics You Misheard / Misunderstood

[Unknown Artist????]

in holiday, where it says, who criticize your government, i thought it said, bill clintons eye sees government

i dont know how that works, but there u hav it

[AustralianFan]

My dad thought in Linkin Park - Hit the Floor

Instead of "The next you're not watch it drop"

"A miniture rock star"

[Pan.]

When I first heard Good Riddance (Time of Your Life), I was eight years old and I thought it was, "I'm an evangelist on a Sunday TV show" instead of "Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go."

And in Platypus, I thought it was, "Cause Artichoke, Cause Artichoke" instead of "Cause I Hate You,Cause I Hate You" when I was little..xD

[Letterbomber]

In Elvis Costello's "Alison" I kept thinking "Alison, my aim is true" is "Alison, my head is true" 'aim' and 'head' dont even rthym! (how the fuck do you spell that..)

[slamdunkCOSMONAUT]

Don't leave me - "I'll go for miles, till I find you"

I thought he said "Welcome to miles, its a life I knew"

on transistors gone wild where he says "give me murder, give me lies"

I thought he said "jimmy murders, jimmy lies"

and on joe robot "its alive, its joe robot" i thought it was "its a lie, its joe robot" and "have tin can, have joe robot" as "half tin can, half joe robot"

on reto "The bigger wired robot

is still using its probe " as "the bigger whiter robot is abusing this pro"

and "its a stripped down world" as "is it script down well"

more to come

[XxSaintess_JimmyxX]

in Welcome to Paradise I thought it said "That night on the butcher's hill" instead of "since I have left your home"

damn I'm fucked up

[Nic.]

In Elvis Costello's "Alison" I kept thinking "Alison, my aim is true" is "Alison, my head is true" 'aim' and 'head' dont even rthym! (how the fuck do you spell that..)

Rhyme

Last night I was like "Where's my phone, oh god where's my phone?!?" I was holding it

[WalkingContradiction118]

Don't leave me - "I'll go for miles, till I find you"

At first I thought Miss Murder said "Hey Miss Mclookaneye, may I stay if I"

[Letterbomber]

Rhyme

Last night I was like "Where's my phone, oh god where's my phone?!?" I was holding it

omg thank you! lol i do that with things like my glasses...ill walk RIGHT by them and im like "MOM HAVE YOU SEEN MY GLASSES?!?!..WHAT THE FUCK?!" then theyre right there

But anyway, i get the last few lyrics of When I Come Around mixed up. Billie needs to stop changeing the sounds of words

[Totally obsessed]

In BOBD , at first I thought "My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating" was " my shadow haunts me though the daylights fading"

[Jimmy's_Rebel]

This was my dad's version of Basket Case - he cracks me up - bless him, he was trying to play it on the guitar:

Do you have the time

To listen to me whine

About everything, nothing all of the time

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

sometimes my... mind plays tricks on me

it all keeps adding up

i think i'm breaking up

am i just paranoid

am i just sad

[She-Loves-Him]

^ my dad does that too... only his version of basket case was something along the lines of:

sometimes i get myself undressed

sometimes i go and read the press

....thats all i remember. poor guy. CLEARLY those are nowhere near the actual lyrics...

[clusterbomb]

the kooks ''i know she knows that iom not fond of asking''

i thought it was ''i know she knows that im not from nebraska''

lol.

[greenday_111]

for good charlotte's girls and boys or whatever it's called, me and my sister thought it said: girls don't like boys, girls cousin eddie... instead of: girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money

[clusterbomb]

Well I can't understand a word Fall Out Boy says in their shitty songs.

hahah me neither.

i used to think it was ''ive got a loaded god complexed cock will you pull it''

hahahaha. that was the first time i heard that awful song.

i hate fall out boy lol.

[Carina]

^ my dad does that too... only his version of basket case was something along the lines of:

sometimes i get myself undressed

sometimes i go and read the press

....thats all i remember. poor guy. CLEARLY those are nowhere near the actual lyrics...

[mrpink1507]

I always thought "Secret Agent Man" was "Secret Asian Man"

And my brother-in-law thought "Can't hurry love" was "Maybury Love"

[dont_leave_me_at_the_library]

My (former) version of Church on Sunday:

"Debauchery

Lack of sleep

Making your mascara bleed

To drown your face

Leaving traces of my mistakes"

I was like, "What the hell?" It was only a couple weeks ago when I realized that made no sense whatsoever.

Also, in Desensitized, it sounds like "Wanna wash your mom." I STILL don't know what he's saying...To the lyric page. And at the beginning I thought it was "Jimmy Teet died" or something. When I heard it I thought it had something to do with St. Jimmy...and early version, or something. I'm such a dork.

[GreenxDayxLuvr]

In Homecoming I thought, "I started fucking running as soon as my feet touched ground," had something to do with pizza... I forget what I thought it was.. lol oddest thing...

[One Lite 1 Mind]

In I Fought The Law, the Green Day version, I thought in the beginning I thought Billie said "bacon rots in the hot sun", where it is actually, "breakin' rocks in the hot sun"

[Guest n o n a m e*]

^ It does!

In 86 I always thought Billie said 'There's no return from many things'

[xxgreendayxx]

my sister misheard one of the linkin park songs "crawling in my skin" as "crawling in my cereal" ...

oh ya... and on biab my best friend and i think billie in king for a day sings "yincesh" instead of "princess"

[nimrod-41]

In Poprocks And Coke, when Billie says "i'll be their for you", I always thought he said "A pedaphile" (Sp?)

[NoPride_27]

well i have a few...

from 86- my sister always thought it was "there's no return for many zits"

nickleback-photograph:

i remeber the 1st time i pissed

i was so nervous that i nearly missed

james blunt-you're beautiful:

my life is bread

my life is poor

i saw a ninja

aladdin for sure

she's my meat on the side plate

she was with a mother, damn

but i won't lose no sleep right now

cuz i am no man

that last one always makes me laugh
