Misheard Song Lyrics

icyfroth — Tue, 01 Jul 2014 23:18:07 GMT

I know we had a thread like this before but I thought it worth doing a new one.

The station I listen to of a morning has a competition going, they play you the start of the song and you have to come in with the first words of the lyrics.

The easy option is, the first 3 words $100, the hard option is the first 7 words, $500.

This morning I thought I had it with INXS - Need You Tonight - ♪ all you got is this moment ♪

I always though it was "in the gardens of Smolensk"

Don't ask me why, I just always did. Until this morning

the coveted five laughy-face award.

I'm awarding it to myself at myself

I always laugh when people think it's "Alex the seal"...."Our lips are sealed" and "Cecil wants to love me" instead of the correct "send someone to love me".

In my first year at school we used to sing hymns at assembly - one of them was:

Gentle Jesus meek and mild

Look upon a little child,

Pity my simplicity,

Suffer me to come to thee.

I never gave much thought to the 'suffering' but I always wondered why the mice needed to be pitied implicitly.

Growing up, I thought Sam the Sham was singing, "A two-bit whore and a wooly jaw"...........when it was actually, "Two big horns and a wooly jaw"......
