Misheard Lyrics

I was just listening to a song by Alexandra Burke called Start Without You...

I listened to the song twice, but was convinced I must be hearing it incorrectly - I kept hearing "I'm like obese" but having checked the lyrics she's actually singing "I'm like a beast" Yes, beast actually makes sense now seeing as she's not exactly overweight.

What lyrics have you misheard?

At college a friend decided to learn to play the guitar and thought he could sing..

one day, he was practicing "sailing" by Rod Stewart..

I thought he kept saying "store my waters" ..

Checked the music sheet & Lyrics ..

They were written as "..Stor-my waters" :O)

Erasure, in the 80's sang "Blue Spanner Song" I thought he must be in love with a mechanic. It wasn't until recently that I heard it aagin and realised it was, "Blue Savana Song"

when under the bridge first came out i thought it was, "Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner

Sometimes I feel like my only friend

Is the city I live in, the city of RANGERS (iso ANGELS)

Lonely as I am, together we cry"

Sometimes at a gig I used to sing "All in all you're just another prick in the hole" iso "All in all you're just another brick in the wall"... :-P

I always used to hear "beef stroganoff" instead of "cos I'm strong enough" in Cher's strong enough song.

The title song from the General's Daughter..

Sea lion woman / sea lion

She drank coffee / sea lion

She drank tea / sea lion

And he gamble lie / sea lion

I used to think that the song said "She lies" instead of "sea lion" ;O(

Just close your eyes by Waterproof blonde..

I used to misinterpret

if you close your eyes, your life will, a naked truth revealed, = thougt I heard "...will, make the truth revealed"

"dreams you never lived and scars never healed," = dreams u never loved ...

Many other songs, Will try and recall..
