Everybody here is running out of hoes.

In Ready AIm Fire - there is no way he says hyperbole & also I hear feed the creeps with a sticky bone ....

It's weird because I can actually hear hyperbole now but in the beginning, as you know, I was convinced Billie was singing "Baby put her hand in the hay"

Almost every time he says Angel Blue in the demolicious version I'm sure he's saying raindrop blue 

[21st_century_gloria]

There's no way that he's saying "alien visitor" in I Was A Teenage Teenager. To me it sounds a hundred percent like "I am a medium visionaire"

In "Oh Yeah" during the chorus, is the weird voice saying "do you want it" or "ain't it funny".

I've always heard "bullet, bullet" which made sense to me bc the song was originally called Bulletproof Backpack. But I'm probably wrong.

Nice, thought I was the only one

The first time I heard Sugar Youth I was pretty sure "a non-believer" was "pain reliever" and "Gonna dance/ To something wild" sounded so much like "Got a date/ in south Hawaii" lmao

Also still confused on whether the chorus to Graffitia says "Long lost love" or "Long lost hope." Sometimes I hear love, sometimes I hear hope, sometimes I hear both of them at different times.

I wonder if BJ uses Spotify & confuses his google home mini with song requests.  😏

That love / hope thing for me too.   I like it both ways but like many Green Day lyrics, the wrong ones may be better.   Haha

For me it's long lost soul.

Talking Graffitia, only the lonely can withstand

[That Dude]

Oh Love has my ultimate misheard lyric.  While hearing the crummy leak version, I heard "this amazing night" instead of "waste away tonight" and was so angry with the correct words. 

 

 

[21st_century_gloria]

Whenever I'm in a Longshot mood, listening to Cult Hero but not looking at the lyrics, I always hear:

"I am a healer/ at the duck 'n' phony show/ Why's Vanessa the lesser known/ Cuz I'm on a vehicle, here I go"  

[Blasting Out the Stereo]

After 16 years, I may have just learnt I heard American Idiot wrong.

Don't wanna be an American Idiot

Don't wanna nation under the new......media?   mania?

 

and

 

Well maybe I'm the faggot America  or fag head America

 

and

 

it' calling out to Idiot America

it's going out to idiot America

 

 

 

 

[Melodyisdestiny]

Media, faggot, and calling. 😉

[Guest]

It's mania and then later in the song it's media.

From the lyric book-

[Guest]

I know it's stick a hammer in your mouth, you're a liar in Fire Ready Aim yet every single time I hear it all I can hear is stick your hand down in your bum, you're a liar.

[Slave To The Network]

Oh! I didn't know stick a hammer in your mouth was the correct lyric. I assumed I was mishearing it because I normally do mishear Billie's words! 

[Annie, get your gun]

Apparently all of *cough* Network's *cough* songs since there aren't official booklets. 

Well, except Roshambo ♡

[Rumpelstiltskin2000]

When Van Gogh sings "Spastic Society" if you're not really listening lyrically it sounds like he sings "Plastic Fireplace"

[That Dude]

In Hitchin a Ride, is the line "poison oak, no" or poison, oh no".  

I will always sing oak.
