Just stumbled across this old thread. There are so many songs I have sung along to incorrectly over the years (I know hard to believe with my writing style).
A couple off the top of my head.
Pink Floyd
I have become comfortably done
Manfred Mann's Earth Band
Blinded by the light, wrapped up like a douche another loaner in the night (the actual lyrics don't make any more sense than my version)
Nirvana

PS If the song title is Comfortably NUMB, how can you misunderstand those lyrics?Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

Manfred Mann's lyrics are really Springsteen's lyrics (as you probabyl knbow) and they make perfect sense when you think of what he wirtes songs about:
revved up like a deuce. this refers to a ford deuce coupe, whichh the beach boys also sang about (little deuce coupe, you don't know what she's got)PLesa excuse the tpyos.

Mama Said Knock You Ou-- after the chorus, there's a little break with a sample that says, "Gangsta boogie, gangsta BOOgie" that repeats about 10 times.
One of my friends told me he thought it said "vegetable head, vegetable head" and after listening to it again, I couldn't disagree with him.

I have a long history with misheard lyrics. For a long time I thought Boston's "Carry on My Wayward Son" was "Gary you're my wavering son." There are others, but I'll not share them at this point.Dio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia
God forgives many things for an act of mercyAlessandro Manzoni
Knock it off. This board has enough problems without a dose of middle-age lechery.

In answer to your reply above, I did know that Blinded by the Light was a Springsteen song, though I don't care for his version much either.Last edited by Art Vandelay; 01-21-2010, 05:04 PM.
