Misheard Song Lyrics
This has been a thread at least once or twice before, and I thought I'd start it up again! Just post whatever song lyrics you have misheard (bonus points if they're funny).
I listen to the radio a lot (pop) and since I'm not supposed to look up random stuff on the internet, and I don't have a phone or anything, I generally just don't understand the lyrics anyways and I really have no idea what they actually are, but I'm just not hearing them quite enough so I can only think they're saying nonsense words until I really learn what it was. HOWEVER, once in a while I actually honestly hear something as actual words, but they're wrong. Also, some music artists need ENUNCIATION.
That song by Portugal the Man, called Feel It Still? Well, I heard that on the radio quite a few times and there are these lyrics that go "we could fight a war for peace" and until I found out what the real lyrics were, I heard it as "we could find a waffle feast". Seriously. It still cracks me up.

I tried to sing Miss Jackson by Panic! At The Disco with my friend yesterday, and it turns out my understanding of the song is "something something back door something something something, something you Miss Jackson"

Ahh, yesss. XD Up until a while ago, I used to think that the lyrics in "There's no Place like Home for the Holidays" were "for the holidays you can't be home sweet home!" instead of the actual "for the holidays you can't beat home sweet home!"

Okay, so this could just be me, but I was totallay convinced that the Frozen song said:
"And one thought crystal ice is like an icy blast"
As in (people thought that crystals are ice)
But I then found ou that it is actually:
"And one thought crystalizes like an icy blast)

Wow, me too! It sounds so much more poetic with the actual lyrics though.

These are all so great.
In Shape of You by Ed Sheeran, there's this one line that I always think says "defend the man with the jukebox"! I still don't know what it actually is.
@Icy, why can't you retaliate because he's a boy? If my brother poked me in the face, I would probably poke him back/whack him on the head. I mean, but that's just little violent me.

It's "put Van the Man on the jukebox," but that's really funny. How would you defend a man with a jukebox?
(December 9, 2018 - 10:51 pm)
Oh. That's just lame. "Defend the man with the jukebox" is better. Maybe you'd have to defend him, because...he was playing music that nobody liked and they were all trying to get him to play something different??
I really don't know. Actually, now I want to turn this into a picture or a GIF or a meme or something. Except I don't do memes, but anyway....

I was imagining using a jukebox to defend a man. But please do the GIF.
(December 10, 2018 - 6:18 pm)
Either way it’s great. XD And yes, you should totally do a GIF!

Because the misheard lyric is poke her face. One day I'll find a song that has poke his face in it...

My little brother loves to sing randomly and he tends to guess the words wrong. When he attempts to sing the chorus of “Living on a Prayer” (over and over again because he doesn’t know the rest) he says “ooooOh! Living on a prairie!!” And he actually thought that was what it was.
In “All Star” my little sis used to say “and all that glitter glue” instead of “all that glitters is gold”. XD these are too funny

This thread reminded me to go listen to soem P!atD, and while listening to Casual Affair I remebered how I used to hear it...
Just lay, on the upper sphere
A casual, affair

There's a line in London Calling that I always hear as "the Wheat Thins are thin!" It's "the wheat is growing thin".

There's this one song by Kelly Clarkson called "Love so Soft" or something. My brother was convinced some of the lyrics were "Love's so soft like the edge of a cough drop!"
