Misunderstood Song Lyrics & Titles

[Bree]

I'm listening to "Urgent" by Foriegner, and this reminds me of the time we were on a family vacation and this song came on the radio. My cousin said "What's he's singing?" I told him it's Urgent and he replies "I thought he was singing Virgin!"

So what are some songs that had lyrics or titles you thought was something else?

Does anybody remember this one-hit wonder, Snow, from the early 90s? He was like some white Canadian rapper who sung with a reggae-style. LOL! The song was called "Informer." I remember days of arguing with my friends over what the hell the dude was saying. This girl I had a crush on swore she knew what he was saying, but she wouldn't say it slowly so anyone could tell what she was saying. All I could make out was something about "boom boom down." LOL!

"Everytime" by Britney Spears:

I thought she was saying,

"I may have made a break,

He's [!@#$%^&*] me."

She was really saying,

"I may have made it rain,

please forgive me."

With Nirvana's "Lithium" its:

I'm so horny, that's ok

My will is good

I always thought it was

I'm so horny, that's ok

My willy's good

'Willy' is English slang for penis

Lol, my friend likes that song by Alicia Keys called "If I Ain't Got You". She thought she said:

Some people want collard greens

And some just, want everything

turns out it was:

Some people want diamond rings

Now, that sounds like a Jill Scott lyric. That woman can sing about some food like nobody's business.

Do you want it on your collard greens?

Do you want it in your candy sweets?

Do you want it on your pickled beets?

Give it to me, give it to me, give it

Do you want it on your rice and gravy?

Do you want it on your biscuits baby?

Do you want it on your black-eyed peas?

Feed it to me, feed it to me, feed it

Ooh it's love, ooh it's love

[Ryan]

I love that song! Have you seen Jill in concert? She rocks.

[crc]

No. I'm so jealous.

I would loooove to see her in concert. LobsterLove! Jill Scott. And The Roots! I have heard both of their live stuff, but that's just not the same, and it just makes me wanna see them even more. That's definitely on top of my "things to do" list.

JILL SCOTT ROCKS!!!

Nelly's Country Grammer

I'm goin down down baby dough street in a raincoat

sweet sweeper baby, cock ready to let it go

shimmy shimmy cocoa puffs listen to it now

The Real Lyrics-

I'm goin down down baby, yo' street in a Range Rover (c'mon)

Street sweeper baby, cocked ready to let it go

Shimmy shimmy cocoa what? Listen to it pound

Nirvana's Heart-Shaped Box

She has me like a passing when I am weak

I've been locked inside your hardship box 4 weeks

I've been drawin' to your magneton fish wrap

I wished I could eat your cancer when you turn black

Hey! Wait! I've got a new Cobain

Forever and into your priceless surprise

De de de de in orchids forget no one just yet.

The Real Lyrics-

She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak

I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks

I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap

I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back

Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet.

[King]

I always had a question about the song "Blue."

No one could ever tell me if it was "I'm Blue bah bah dee bah bah bye." or "I'm Blue, if I was green, I would die."

I always thought it was the bah bah-ing, but a local radio DJ said it was the latter. Oh well. Song sucks, anyway.

[KLN]

I LOVE THAT SONG!! LoL

I never misunderstood these lyrics, but I saw on a website somebody who did. I laughed my ass off.

Who remembers the song "!@#$%^&*]" by Meredith Brooks? On a website, someone posted that they misheard the following lyrics ("I'm a !@#$%^&*], I'm a tease, I'm a goddess on my knees") as "I'm a !@#$%^&*], look it's cheese, oh my God it's on my knees." HYSTERICAL!
