Misunderstood Musical Lyrics

[bLACKpANTHER]

You know your favorite song, word-for-word.. but do you really!?

After years of saying the wrong lyric you just find out that the words were different and your mind is officially blown.

Everyone has had this happen to them at some point, right? List some of them here:

 

California Love, Dr. Dre and Tupac: "A state that's untouchable like Elliot Ness Alien Nests."

Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, Cindi Lauper: "Voices Buzz is singing 'Let's be jolly!'"
(I first heard this song in the movie Home Alone and thought it was talking about Kevin's older brother Buzz.

Hold me closer, Tony Danza!!

Blinded by the light

Revved Wrapped up like a deuce douche

Another runner rumor in the night

No matter how many I times I hear it, and no matter how certain I am of the real lyrics, I can't hear it any other way. Or more recently:

My house in Budapest
My hidden treasure chest,
Golden grand piano
My beautiful Castillo

You
You
I'd leave it all Ah-doofy-doh.

 

[SCP]

Hot buttered, check it and see. I've got a fever of 103.

[Stumpy]

This isn't exactly misunderstood, but after watching Old School, I can't sing Total Eclipse of the Heart without throwing in some random f bombs.

Blinded by the light

Revved Wrapped up like a deuce douche

Another runner rumor in the night

No matter how many I times I hear it, and no matter how certain I am of the real lyrics, I can't hear it any other way.

 

​Bruce Springsteen wrote it as "Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night", Manfred Man changed it.

Running Down a Dream from Tom Petty

real lyrics: running down a dream that never would come to me

my lyrics: running down a dream the devil would come to me

Also Van Halen's Padded Bra

Running Down a Dream from Tom Petty

real lyrics: running down a dream that never would come to me

my lyrics: running down a dream the devil would come to me

Also Van Halen's Padded Bra

It's your inner self telling you the Devil is coming after you.  

[Chaos]

Every time you go away, you take a piece of meat with you.
