Wrong lyrics

[Tracy]

When you was a child, did you ever completely sing the wrong lyrics to a song but they sounded just like it. (well to you anyway)

I used to love Frankie...Sister sledge and would sing away quite happily

Only i used to sing:

"Oh, how you brought me down - down down. hot dinner was all around, "

When it should of been:

"Oh, how you brought me down - down down. All I did was runnin' around - around.

Re: Wrong lyrics

Yes Danny, but didn't 'crop' sound more like it had an 'a' instead of an 'o'.

Re: Wrong lyrics

Well Kaz,

When he sang crop I used to think he was singing the one syllable word for a male chicken/rooster that rhymes with lock ( you can't post it in here cos of filters )

Re: Wrong lyrics

one of the most famous ones of course is Paul Young's "Everytime you go away you take a piece of MEAT (me) with you"

Re: Wrong lyrics

They don't care about us - Michael Jackson "everybody dog poo" you can't miss it.

Always - Bon Jovi "This romeo is bleeding, you can see his blood, it's nothing but some PEANUTS". It's there if you listen for it.

Re: Wrong lyrics

I'm sure you'll all remember Bonnie Tyler's 'It's A Heartache' which started with the immortal line :

'It's a hard egg, nothing but a hard egg'!

Re: Wrong lyrics

Michael Jackson singing about a Stoke Delicacy

Annie get your oatcakes, get your oatcakes Annie, you've been hit by a smooth criminal

Re: Wrong lyrics

I too thought it was 'four hundred children' I was thinking 'ffs no wonder Lucille did a runner!'
In 'The Police' song 'Material world' it goes 'are spirits in a material world'....I thought he was singing 'upstairs in a material world'.
In Neil Diamond's 'Forever In Blue Jeans' I was convinced he was singing 'for reverend blue jeans'.
This one is embarrassingly recent...in Amy Winehouse's 'Valarie' I thought she was singing 'come on over by the way'...then after a while i thought it was 'come on over via the rail'. I didn't know the name of the song, even if I did, I don't think I'd have copped.
