Sometimes I mishear song lyrics.

[Bretrick]

Blondie's song Heart of Glass.
For a long, long time I thought the line was: Soon turned out to be a pain in the arse...

 

[Flarbalard]

More or less that was the line, you just heard it with an antipodean accent.

 

[OneEyedDiva]

I can't tell you how many times I've misheard lyrics! Now I want to listen to that song to see if I'll hear what you thought you heard.

The Most Commonly Misheard Lyrics in Popular Songs

 

[Dr.Colosso]

As a kid I sang along with my brother's record. Awoedanippienois. Had no idea what it meant.

Another Dutch kid sang: Vissekom vissekom I want a vissekom. Vissekom = Fish bowl. Instead of physical.

 

[Bretrick]

I can't tell you how many times I've misheard lyrics! Now I want to listen to that song to see if I'll hear what you thought you heard.

In fact, that is a line in the final stanza.
I misheard it in the first stanza.

1st:
Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

Final:
Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out to be a pain in the ass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
