Misheard Lyrics

[AliceCullen]

it's like the german "oma fiel ins klos songs" ...just in English ;D

i always understand "i'm a legal alien" in englishman in new york instead of "i'm a little alien"

[JackyLovesMika]

I always understand 'You wanted it so much longer than mate sex.' instead of 'You wore it so much longer then made sense.' in 'Someone To Save You' by OneRepublic.

Ohne dich verunsichern zu wollen, aber... es heißt tatsächlich "I'm a legal alien". Das heißt "Einwanderer". 

Ein netter Verhörer von mir:
Ich hörte immer
"Roman Catholic choirs are singing" statt "Roman cavalry choirs..." in Coldplay's "Viva La Vida". Mir kamen Kirchenchöre an der Stelle immer "SEHR" übertrieben vor.

my dear ones

this is an englishspeaking board.
we have a thread like this in a germanspeaking board.
so: actually this is a really senseless thread but if you really wanna use it, use the right language

otherwise I will close it and you can chat about misheard lyrics in the german one 

have a nice day 

[AliceCullen]

@StrangeFruit: oh, ok, i didn't knew that

@Nessa: I made this thread cuz we can't post English misheard lyrics in the german one


I alwayys understand "I am the f***ing doll" instead of "I kick the bucket y'all" in Kick the bucket by MSI

[Nessá]

@ Alice: Well, if you read the german thread you can find lots of english songs which were misunderstood in english, not in german so you can see, we can discuss it there as well as in an english thread

[AliceCullen]

@Nessa: when i once posted some misheard lyrics in the german one, someone told me that that thread was about German misunderstood lyrics...

i always understand in shut me up by MSI "I can't buy Capari right now, I wanna have my Capari right now, I can't stand my Capari right now"

It's not "Roman Catholic choirs" ? I could have sworn... but then again I never realy listened to the lyrics
I used to understand "right or wrong" instead of "wine on blood" in "Love the hardest way" by HIM

Nope. But I was convinced, too, before I read it.

Two of my own favourite misheards:

On Therapy?'s "Punishment Kiss" instead of "Tried to change the shape of their lives" I always heard "Charlie Sheen is shaving the light". (And that years before you would've considered that as absolutely poosible)

On Elton John's "Medley (Yell Help/Wednesday Night/Ugly) there's the line "And you're looking at the guy whose eyes can't deny that he wishes he were somewhere elso tonight."  Instead for me it was "And you're looking up to God, whose eyes can't deny...", which for me was the best line ever. A situation so awkward that even God would rather leave... The real lyrics were pretty much of a disappointment then.

I always understand "I'm counting some hos" instead of "I could've been someone" in Faggot by Msi. xDD
( Oops I mistakenly pushed some key.. )

[AliceCullen]

in caramell dansen there's one part when I always understand "What can hippos say?"

[AliceCullen]

in Not Enough by Avril Lavigne there's this one sentence where I alaways understand "lol! I think you're Es!"
and in the beginning of Bring The Pain by MSI he sings "Two tears in a bucket" but I alawys understand "Two deers in a bucket"

[Rosey-Hale]

Ich versteh bei Scream for my ice cream von Blood on the Dancefloor immer: (Ja ich weiß diese Band ist nicht sehr empfehlenswert für Personen unter 18, weswegen ich auch garnicht wissen will, was die da echt sagen XD):  Smash my hair, F*** the chair SCREAM gimme head!

  english thread rosey

In the Placebo song For What It's Worth there's a line "Your god shaped hole tonight" but I'm convinced he sings "You're a god shaped whore tonight" that can't just be my naughty mind
And I'm still not sure which version makes less sense 

[Rosey-Hale]

Oh yeah right XD
