What are some song lyrics that you've misheard over the years?

In Kyrie by Mr. Mister they say, "Kyrie Eleison through the road that I must travel".

But when I was a kid I thought they said, "Carry a laser through the road that I must travel". 😂

If I'd misheard "Kyrie Eleison" I'd have thought it was "Kerry Ellison" because I know a woman called Kerry Ellison and she has had one or two comments about her name.

Before I discovered the Internet I used to think the lyric "Soy Capitan" in the song "La Bamba" was "So you copy Dan". I mentioned that on a website once and another user corrected me. Take a look:

The user "ZebedyZak" is me.

The Pink Floyd song "Comfortably Numb" has a lyric that says "When I was a child I had a fever / My hands felt just like two balloons." I thought the second part sounded like "My head smelled just like Tupelo." I was sure that wasn't what he was actually saying, but it sounded to me exactly like that.

one that stuck with me is milky chance. "never danced like this before. we dont talk about it.. should've talked about it." but the line is actually "shouldn't talk about it" but my version is better and i refuse to accept otherwise

paradise sounds like "parrot dies" and i remember my mom talking about it while it was playing on the speaker at walgreens

and then pumped up kicks.. my mom was driving my brother and i around different game stops for me because i really wanted a pokemon explorer game and we couldnt find it. that song came on the radio for the first time and we all thought he was saying "better run better run faster than my buckets" and we thought it was soooo funny but the actual line is "faster than my bullets" lol

At the end of the Queen track One Vision they sing fried chicken.On purpose.
The comedian Peter Kay did an act that played lots of misheard lyrics.It's really good.It included Shania Twain singing "kiss your cock at night" instead of kiss your car.

one spot in Pink Floyd the wall, where it says, 'you can't have any pudding if you don't eat your meat" I thought it was at first "you can't have any pudding if you don't beat your meat
I was like WTH??

Mine was in an Indian language. Would be lost in translation.

But basically made a soft romantic song sound pornographic. In my teens, that was heady LOL 😆

@WandererTony I think anything can sound pornographic if we want it to. Lol :)

One of my favorite songs when it was in top 40 radio play 40 odd years ago.
