Upon exercising today, I was listening to U2's Vertigo. I've made a strange discovery, but I could swear that Bono says the word "Chazbot" in the chorus. Either I am crazy or he's a HUGE fan of Mork and Mindy. This got me thinking. How many times have we heard a song and inadvertently sung the lyrics incorrectly? Here are a few that always make me laugh...
Journey's: Don't Stop Believin'
Misheard Lyrics:
A singer in a smokey room
Snow White and sleep with you.
Original Lyrics:
A singer in a smokey room
Smell of wine and cheap perfume.
Dylan's: Shelter From The Storm
Misheard Lyrics:
Nothing really matters much
It's do 'em alone that counts.
Original Lyrics:
Nothing really matters much
It's doom alone that counts.
Modern English': I'll Melt With You
Misheard Lyrics:
I'll stop the world and Albert Hugh.
Original Lyrics:
I'll stop the world and melt with you.
Filter's: Take A Picture
Misheard Lyrics:
Awake your Maya queen.
Original Lyrics:
Awake on my airplane.
Hands down, I think the most popular misheard lyrics in history has to go to:
Manfred Mann's Earth Band's: Blinded By The Light
Misheard Lyrics:
'N she was blinded by the light
Racked up like a douche, you know, the runner in the night.
Original Lyrics:
And she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night.
