Misheard song lyrics

[Kurt.]

Possibly/Probably been discussed previously but I can’t remember so apologies if so.

I was driving home from work today and Shania Twain’s song feel like a woman was played on the radio… now I don’t know the actual lyrics but I swear it was something like :-

“Feel the attraction,
Gimme some action,
Come in my hair
Do it again
Oh oh oh oh “

It’s probably not the correct lyrics but got me thinking about other misheard lyrics. I know the obvious one is Celine Dion believing the hot dogs go on but can’t think of many others right now…. Go ahead.. post yours.

In Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Elton John sings’

‘I bet they’ll shoot down the plane’

For years I thought it was,

‘I flushed a [Poor language removed] down the drain’

Kinda ruined by the swear filter, that

Apparently Sade's Smooth Operator has a line that is:
"Coast to Coast, LA to Chicago, Western Male"
as a kid I had no sense of Northeast US geography so I thought (until last week actually) this was:
"Coast to Coast, LA to Chicago, Western Maine"


also there's Filter's Hey Man, Nice Shot which I swore was "Hey man, nice shirt, such a good shirt man" the first (several) times I heard this.
I always thought that's why he "wished he would have met [you]" because he was just really into fashion .

Incidentally, it’s ‘I’ll colour my hair, do what I dare’

I'll never forget the first time I heard Ian Brown sing "I wanna be a door"

My wife is the queen of misheard lyrics, so much so that the kids call her "mummy wrongwords". Her best one is mishearing "Big Mac, fries to go" in Pop Will Eat Itself's 'Def Con One" as "Big fat ricicle".

Who’s gonna drive you home? Pork pie.

As a youngster I used to get the following song lyrics messed up

Hendrix - "scuse me while I kiss this guy"
Manfred Mann - "wrapped up like a douche"
Steppenwolf - " bitchin all around me" instead of get your motor runnin
Procol Harum - "and so it was lighter as the miller sold his sail"
The Doors - " smelly woman's gonna have to do" instead of L.A woman Sunday afternoon

Meatloaf singing " Gonna hit the highway like a battering ram I'm a Cilla Black fan of the night" in Bat out of Hell.

Jambalaya. For years I thought it was Jim The Lion.

 

[April1970]

In the Police song, “So Lonely” sounds like Sue Lawley

 

[canuckblue]

CCR's "There’s a bathroom on the right."
