Our English teacher loved it, so I grew up thinking fisting is some dance move. I was very surprised when i figured that one out.

That's pretty damn funny.

I read when I was ten or so some book about an English lord with a wide range of attitude issues. He kept talking about his bitch, and bitches. It took me an other ten years to realize he wasn't talking about his wife.

The same thing happened with Alice Cooper song. "your poison running through my veins.." I thought he was dying because he had been listening to that shitty band Poison. The meaning of the song changed a bit with that realization.

Fourth language explains a lot but I have my moments too.

It is a dance move, man!

My worst one was "I'll never eat your pizza burnin" " instead of "I'll never be your beast of burden". Sorry Mick

Great thread!!

“I got my first real sex dream...”

Instead of "I got my first real six string"

mkoesel · 05-02-2018, 02:38 PM

I do the same. I can't think of many right now, but I do remember one of my all time favorites, which I've also used as a joke when the song comes on:

"It tastes like you but sweeter" => "It tastes like Q-Bert's weaner"

I had to look up the band (Fall Out Boy) and I don't know the name of the song.

So next time you hear that song among friends you have your punch-line:

"Yeah, so not a bad song*, but how does he know what Q-Bert's weaner tastes like?"

* Not a great song by any means, but you just say that part for the sake of the joke.

I will always think of you when that song plays!

Guns and roses, dead horse.

Sometimes I feel like I'm eating a dead moore
An I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny but you'd think by now
I'd be smilin'
I guess some things never change
Never change

I met an old cowboy
I saw the look in his eyes
Somethin' tells me he's been here before
'Cause experience makes you wise
I was only a small child
When the thought first came to me
That I'm a son of a gun and the gun of a son
That brought back the Nevil in me.

It's one of my favorite songs but I still wonder every time why the fuck would they eat Roger Moore.

These are making me LOL at my desk.

I'm glad I am not the only one that messes up songs. And thank God we're not living in the 1900's anymore and can just Google any lyric when you think "WTF, that can't be right!!"

I love these fuck ups! The ability to laugh at your own mistakes makes each of us stronger!

I have tons of these! I ended up in a mild dispute about fifteen years ago while trying to help a woman who was trying to get away from a man. The cops were called and the cop asked me if I had taken more hits from the volleyball bat.

I'm not exactly interested in any sport but thank god I was busy trying to calm down the woman so I did not tell the cop that the guy had been unarmed. With my hair color that would've been a killer moment.

My husband still makes fun of that one since I was very mad when I got home and told him our cops can't see a difference of a black eye made with a bat or a fist.

Anyway.

"Attitude, you got some fucking attitude
I can't believe what you say to me
You got some attitude

Inside your feeble brain there's probably a whore
If you don't shut your mouth you're gonna feel the door

Attitude, the one you got, oh baby
Attitude, the one you got, oh baby
Attitude, attitude

Inside your feeble brain there's probably a core
If you don't shut your mouth you're gonna feel the moore

Attitude, you got some fucking attitude
(Attitude) I can't believe what you say to me
You got some attitude

Attitude, you got some fucking attitude
(Attitude) I can't believe what you say to me
You got some attitude"

I tip my hat to the new prostitution,
Take a bow for the new revolution
Collard greens at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again

I forgot my best one when I invented a new Spanish word from an old school freestyle song

Maria by TKA

"She had a boyfriend, a trapilla"

I asked my Spanish speaking work-wife what a "trapilla" is. She listened to the song singing the words "she had a boyfriend, a drug dealer".

Me: "a trapilla is a drug dealer?"
Her: "no you ass, they say drug dealer"

We still call drug dealers "trapillas "

Let's not forget Johnny Rivers's song "Secret Asian Man".

zentanker · 05-03-2018, 02:31 AM

After many years we still get a chuckle from this from my mom:

Scorpions
"Here I am
Raunchy like a hurricane
Here I am
Raunchy like a hurricane"

Thanks to mom for singing in the car in the 80's

Metallica:
"Amstel Light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never never-land"

-Wayne the stoner I worked with on graveyard shift in school

----------------------------------------

Bulletboys - Smooth Up in Ya

for those who aren't familiar with this one, listen to the first few seconds of this: starting at around 3:05

my woman's interpretation:

Don't let your lovin' go to waste
All it takes is just one date
woaaaaaaa chinchilla

actual:
Don't let your lovin' go to waste
All it takes is just one date
Oh I send shivers

Kurt may have been misunderstood, but Eddie Vedder made an art out of being completely incomprehensible. I defy anyone to figure out the lyrics of Yellow Ledbetter without opening the album cover or searching the Internet. I read the lyrics once to get the gist of the song, but never committed them to memory. I may be able to pick out a word or two, but doubt I could match the lyrics to whatever is coming out of Eddie's mouth. It doesn't matter one bit, it's still one of my all time favorite Pearl Jam songs.

What about Ozzy just trying to speak English over the last 20 years???
