    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”.

      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

        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".

        That's not really a fair song to enter in a misheard lyrics thread.

              Instead of the Go Go's saying "Our lips are sealed" I thought they were saying "Honest, Lucille."

                But, there's so few lyrics in that song, and they say it repeatedly. When I first learned they say lovin' and not love, all I could think was the McLovin from Superbad. I'm mclovin youuuu....

                      We like to joke about non Spanish lyrics that sounds like Spanish. I love Apolocatv channel for that and 🐱 costumes.

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

                                        Oh I was singing loudly along with Elton John one day, "Love, I feel it in my hands, I can tell by the things I would do with another maaaan" as I had done every time I heard the song when I suddenly realized that probably wasn't something someone would sing in the 1970s, looked it up and the NAME of the song is Love Lies Bleeding.

                                          “Blinded by the light.

                                          Revved up like a douche, another runner in the night.”

                                          Turns out is actually deuce.

                                          I always heard "wrapped up like a douche in the middle of the night" and happily sung that in bars.
