    I heard this song for the first time, and I kept hearing

    My lover’s got no money, he’s got his thrombolyse

    Turns out it was "strong beliefs", and not a medical term

    Have a listen: https://song.link/t/70681623

      I used to think the Kiss song went "I wanna rock and roll all night... and part of every day."

            Manfred Mann's cover of Blinded by the Light has entered the chat. Probably the most misheard lyrics in the entire history of modern music.

            It's "Revved up like a deuce."

            Wait... Manfred Mann's version is a cover? Yep, Blinded by the Light was originally performed Bruce Springsteen.

              I used to sing Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong as “Pyramids, pyramids, pyramids, pyramids can’t be wrong”.

              Also, in Africa, I definitely thought they said “rises like a lepress (like a female leopard) above the Serengeti”. The real lyric is “Olympus”.

                    It wasn't until my first job at a grocery store during Christmas time that I learned it was "Feliz Navidad" being sung.

                    Before that, I couldn't figure out why the cheerful song that only appeared around Christmas time was saying "Police shot my dad"

                        Kings of Leon, Use Somebody. I always thought that he said "You know I wanna eat somebody. Someone like you!"

                            Speaking of blinding, my honey used to think a different song went "she blinded me with oven mitts, it opened up my eyes"

                              I always heard "The wrong guy, the wrong situation.

                                  For a long time, I thought in the song Inagadadavida, the lyrics went '"doncha know that I love you", but it turns out, they say "l'm lovin' you".

                                        I used to sing Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong as “Pyramids, pyramids, pyramids, pyramids can’t be wrong”.

                                        Also, in Africa, I definitely thought they said “rises like a lepress (like a female leopard) above the Serengeti”. The real lyric is “Olympus”.

                                        Untill this day, I thought it was lepress too.

                                          I heard this song for the first time, and I kept hearing

                                          My lover’s got no money, he’s got his thrombolyse

                                          Turns out it was "strong beliefs", and not a medical term

                                          Have a listen: https://song.link/t/70681623
