Misheard Lyrics

[kyuubi93]

There's this one August Burns Red song called Meddler that goes, "the bull behind the rampage, the reason for all the riot" but one day I misheard it as "the reason, for all the Wyatt" because I was thinking about my friend with the same name. Needless to say, lulz ensued. xD

 

[Poki]

I always hear "I'm breathin' fire" instead of "A 3-day party" in Papa Roach's cover of Gouge Away (by The Pixies).

 

[Alfieri]

"The Plot to Bomb the Panhandle" by A Day to Remember

The actual line: I'll rip that scandalous b**ch in two

What I hear: I'll rip that scandalous b**ch's throat!

Sounds more aggressive to me lmao.

I listen to a ton of Lady Gaga, so I'm bound to mishear things since she does tend to slur her lyrics here and there. In particular:

Born This Way. I always heard "Give yourself prudence, and love your friends" as "Give yourself pudding, and love your friends". It made no sense whatsoever but I always sang it like that when the song was new.

You and I. The line "With your guitar strumming and no clothes". I hear it as "With your heart pumpin' an overload". It's honestly a better line and the "real" line feels lazy and uninspired.

 

[TheDeadEvilDead]

"LIBERATE!!.. BANANAS!!!"
If you're a Slipknot fan you'll know exactly which song this is xD

I hated my brother for pointing this out because it wasn't misheard before then, now i can't listen to it without hearing that :l
