Lyrics you've misheard

[scottheisel]

I'll go first.

In Refused's "New Noise," at the end of the song, even though I know Dennis Lxyzen is screaming, "THE NEW BEAT! THE NEW BEAT!" from the first time I heard the song over a decade ago, I've always secretly thought he was really screaming, "THANK YOU PETE! THANK YOU PETE!"

Who "Pete" in this situation would be, I have no idea.

What about you?

[lokithelion]

I thought it was "thank you pete" for the longest time too. I figured it was just something Sweed's said.

Leatherface-Baked Potato

i was actually hearing the correct lyrics

"everybody knows how to cook baked potato's"

but i was always made up different lyrics cause i was certain no one would every put that line in a punk song

[cj]

i could never figure that out, half the time i thought it was psycho freak and the other half psycho bitch

I know it wasn't this, but I always sang "The Noob! The Noob"

[silentgods]

In ænema by tool i always thought he was saying

fuck these dysfuctional kings of hypocrisy

instead of

fuck these dysfunctional insecure actresses.

[heavyheavylowlow]

I mistake Josh Scogin's lyrics all the time for stuff that just sounds ridiculous, I love his delivery, but it really is slurred.

[twat]

psycho freak!

Buck-O-Nine - "My Town"

I thought for the longest time that he was saying "reggae music coming from the n***er across from me" (rather than "neighbor").

I remember thinking how weird it was, especially since it got a fair amount of radio play.

Turns out I'm retarded.

[enjoyadrian]

I always thought he was screaming "stomp yo feet! stomp yo feet!"

man i was way off.

[destroyingthescene]

I had my very first sex dream,

I was five at the time,

Played it till my fingers bled,

It was the summer of '69.

I was gonna post this exact same thing. Turns out you're not the only one that's retarded.

Years ago I used to listen to this song on the radio called "Undo Me" and I always thought that the lady was singing to "Toomie" who was a local radio DJ at the time and I thought it was cool but I was a bit confused as to why a singer from some random place in the US would sing about a radio DJ from Spokane.

[translatingthename]

[twat]

Speaking of Saves The Day, in "Kaleidoscope" on the new album, there's a line where Chris sings, "The look I saw come upon your face is frozen there each time I blink." But the first time (and now every subsequent time) I heard it, I didn't hear the "the," so I thought he was singing, "Look, I saw cum up on your face, it's frozen there each time I blink."

[markbutlerftw]

no he tottally emphasizes the word cum like 4 times on that record and when you hear it it sounds dirty

[momentumlost]

recently i thought the gaslight anthems 59 sound "to hear the '59 sound, coming through my grandfathers radio."

but apparently its "grandmama's radio"....i still think it sounds like its grandfathers....at least in the album version.

i just listened to that song for the first time last night and thought he said the same thing, it was weird

[meyercore]

the first two lines of Handsome Boy by Saves the Day:

"Whats in that boys asshole,

a little bit of meat."

I will always hear those words instead of the correct ones.

I thought it was "grandfather's" on the record, too, but then when I did the acoustic session with Brian, he sang "grandmama's" instead.
