Misheard Green Day Lyrics

[*withoutadoubt*]

In Nuclear Family, I always hear, "just as long as it comes with infidelity for me too."

i'm still not over the fact that favorite son apparently says "pretty but it's sad" and not "pretty bloody sad"

Really??? I am actually shocked at that, lol. Just when you think you got all the lyrics down, you find out you've been singing the wrong words, lol.

[Jon Benjamin]

In let yourself go I hear "gotta crap cause you're screaming in my ear..."

[alienlifeform]

i've never listend Oh Love this way but on the chorus sometimes looks like BJ sings " Tonight My Horse is on the Loose"

[Riaaa.]

When I first heard Nuclear Family, I thought it was "I just want some action so gimme Mike Dirnt." And I was like, "WTF?!"

Also, in Stop When The Red Lights Flash, I thought it was "I'm guilty of silence". Then I found out it was "Uncomfortable silence".

And in Homecoming, I kept thinking it was "What's your plan for all the champagne?" but it was actually "What's your pleasure and what's your pain?"

I thought I was the only one

This! When I first listened to it I too thought it said that. I immediately looked at the lyrics and saw that's not what he was singing though. It would have been hilarious if the song actually said that though

[MarisaX]

Nice Guys Finish Last-

Nice guys finish last. When you run out of gas, don't pat yourself on the back. You might break your spine.

and

Wow! That's Loud-

Dressed to the nines like a blackhead size.

What? haha

I always thought it was "dressed to the nines like a black cat sighs"

[Rock_N_Roll_Girlfriend]

In Walk Away I heard:

"Well it’s not too late

EARL, it’s really not worth the fight...."

and I was like WHO THE FUCK IS EARL???

same here.. oh and at Sex Drugs And Violence, I thought it was "too drunk to die" instead of "too dumb to die"

[Rock_N_Roll_Girlfriend]

Oh, when I was starting my journey in the Green Day world, 9 years ago, I started listening to Dookie. Burnout ends and I hear: "Chickeeeeenn all you down with me".. I was like, "why would he want to take chickens with him"??

[AnonyWolf]

For the first few times of Going to Pasalacqua, I thought he was saying ''Infatuation such as me, just when I thought that it would then''. It always confused me, especially when the next line begins with ''Oh, but then again'', which would have made it quite the word redundancy error. Doesn't help that the vocals were kind of garbled in the first place because of the way Billie sang back then.

Also, it took me a rather long time just to figure what the hell was being said in the second part of the chorus of Road To Acceptance. (The proper lyrics are: ''If you'd stop a while, and maybe if you'd smile, you would realize that we're all the same''.)

And, since I'm talking about Road To Acceptance: It's just like a brain

When Ned goes insane

We feel the same pain

"I lost my whale baby, this Stray Heart"

Oh god . Hearing this forever now.

[Connor Finlayson]

When I was younger American Idiot said:

Actual Lyric:

Can you hear the sound of hysteria?

What I thought:

Can you hear the sound of the stereo?

[Dirty Rotten Bastard]

I thought it was 'big shits inferno' instead of 'Christians Inferno'. I think the title of that song totally passed me by.

[albert1285]

Stray Heart: "You you're not a whore/hoe Ohh and I'm where I belong We're not a whore/hoe..." instead of "And you you're not alone Ohh and I'm where I belong We're not alone..."

JOS: " It says: home is where your heart is the water shame" instead of It says: " home is where your heart is, But what a shame"

Brutal Love: (well not of my favorites I haven't really listened this one that much or read the lyrics) I hear every time "Bad luck penis and soda" instead of "Bad luck Bitters and soda"

and that's it so far I'll try to remember more.

[Sanket]

He is saying my cold shoulder. It got me for the first few listens.

I always get fulled by the part in Wild one where the lyrics are "She gave up on Jesus, for living on venus". Almost every time I hear it I think he is saying "gave up on penis, living on peanuts" . Before I looked at the lyrics I was confused on how that actually related to anything.

Isnt it for "For living on peanuts"?

[The Grouch is Tracy]

Gloria........Eva Longoria........ Instead of Gloria....viva la Gloria

[Firecracker Lell]

When my classmate first listened to " She's a rebel ", she thought the line was " She's a Red Bull " :'D

[Lulu Flowers]

My family is convinced the line "I'm counting sheep but running out" in Brain Stew is actually "I'm counting sheep but running nude."

[Cruise]

Isnt it for "For living on peanuts"?

Yes your correct, I just missed it while typing.

[Sirens-of-Decay]

I always thought in homecoming it was "I started fucking running as soon as my future drowned".

I know there's a tonne more that I sing wrong, but that's the first that came to mind.

[ZSebs]

I don't know if this counts but when I first heard the recording on Nuclear Family from the Echoplex, I thought he said,

"Sixte-ee-ee-een and pregnant, wah yeah," instead of, "scream, scream, screaming bloody murder."

[Connor Finlayson]

I remembered more..

Basket Case: "About nothing and everything allowance"

Jaded "hkbeefn ewdw fyegwwfy gyfew"

Mass Hysteria: "Elevated to a Hispanic"

[Jean]

J.A.R.

For the longest time, I thought it was...

Every kid's alright

We do it alright

Cause that's the way I wanna live

So I give

I'm still giving

The actual lyrics are...

And I think it's alright
That I do what I like
Cause that's the way I wanna live

Its how I give
And I'm still giving

Also...

If you could see inside my head
Then you would start to understand

I thought it was...

If you could see inside my head
In these thoughts, you'd understand

[IsaGreenDay]

Longview

I thought it was: Peel me off this bathroom seat and get me moving.

But the lyrics are: Peel me off this Velcro seat and get me moving.
