Misunderstood song lyrics.



Recommended Posts

my son was 4 years old and was singing the garth brooks song "I'm shamless" as "I'm Shaveless" I laughed and thought Yes, you are

When my little brother was younger he had a Disney tape that had "Zippity Doo Da" on it. He was four and would sing "Zip in the Doo-Daa, Zip in the A"

Needless to say, he was asked to sing his rendition at every family function! Hilarious.

I now have tears from laughing so hard. Thanks guys, I needed that.

I can SO relate to the A-Ha song and the Falco. But instead, we sang it "Rock me I'm a danish". Hey, leave it to the fat kids to put a food twist on it.

One song I can't figure the words out to this day is Elton John's Benny and the Jets. I used to say "She had elevator boots" instead of "electric boots" which made more sense to me. Otherwise the rest of the lyrics were pretty weird as well.

And Blinded by the Light......... "Blinded by the light. Wrapped up like a douche another roller in the night." LOL I looked it up and it's: "Blinded by the light. Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night." Personally, I liked my version better.

What about the Elton John Classic "Tiny Dancer".

The Chorus goes..... "Hold me closer tiny dancer"

I thought it was......."Hold me closer Tony Danza"

Along with EVERYONE else!

Holy smokes, thanks everyone. This is all too funny.

Jill your encounter with your mother sounds almost like "Who's on First"!

This is a little embarrasing but I thought Inagodadavida was "In the Garden of Eden". And to this day I still sing these words "With 5 Laso Apso's bright and burning and all at once I new she'd Understand, the boy inside the man."

I could never figure out why anyone would want to set 5 of those funny looking long haired dog's on fire but apparrently that sort of thing causes great understanding.

Years ago a Willie Nelson song "Lucille" was on, when my then young daughter says to me "That's just a stupid song--no one has 400 children!" When I ask & then listened to her sing along she sang "With 400 children and a crop in the field, you picked a fine time to leave me Lucille". When I could do so without laughing I explained he actually sang "With 4 hungry children......" Still think of it to this day whenever the oldie comes on!!

Oh yeah, I sang wrapped up like a douche too. Didnt everyone?

There's a midnight oil song Blue Sky Mine, which was a hit back in the late 80's and I swear Peter Garret is singing "who's gonna shave me" not "who's gonna save me".

Oh and Big Yellow Taxi - I thought "they paved paradise, put up a parking lot" was "they paved paradise, put up a f*&king lot!

Wow! I knew about www.kissthisguy.com, but never even bothered to look up "Blinded by the Light". I can't BELIEVE the lyric isn't "Wrapped up like a douche, another roller in the night"!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
