Following on from the "Tunes that motivate" post by Stavros, what are your favourite misheard lyrics.

One of my favs has got to be "get up in the morning baked beans for breakfast" and "me ears are alight" both from Desmond Dekkers Isrealites.

Wife spent 30 odd years singing along to Albert Hammonds "Free electric van"

Best one I heard was whilst listening to Capital FM a women phoned in who thought the words to "it's raining men" was actually "Israeli Men"

So she was hearing "Israeli Men hallelujah"

Lmao. That's Baaaaaaaaad, for her lol.

Misheard lyrics hmm...
Paramore Misery Business, she sings "she's got a body like an hourglass, That's ticking like a clock."

first few times I heard... "she's got a body like a hairyass, that's sticking like a *badword*" If you can't figure out what the word is, then lol.

As a kid, in the hymn 'Give Me Joy In My Heart I thought 'Sing Hosanna' was 'Single Spanner' and always thought the 'King of Kings' bit was 'Concrete Kings' !

So, when I was dragged to church as a child I was often hear belting out...

"Single Spanner, Single Spanner,
Single Spanner to the Concrete kings!"

Trying to think, does its a kind of magic by queen really end as "fried chicken"?

Just remembered, my son used to like singing along to "It's a tin" by the Pet Shop Boys.
