From Michael Jackson's "Thriller" Correct line: "Girl, I can thrill you more than any ghost could ever dare try" Misheard: "Girl, I can hear the motion and devotion of the cher shry." and a cher shry is what exactly? sounds like a set-up to me. you must have some obscure-minded friends. either that, or you copied that from the misheard lyrics website. I, too, always thought it was ghoul. Keep your headphones on. | |

Michael pretty much mutilated the English language on that album! | |

First time I heard Sade's 'Babyfather', I thought she was singing:
"Your daddy knows your a fling. Your daddy knows your a fling." But it's 'flame'. I think the title of the song had me thinking other things for a while there. Prince Rogers Nelson

I thought the chorus went Snoopy Dogg Killa instead of ... Serial.  You didn't have a clue since the NAME OF THE SONG is "SERIAL KILLA"???  They're a lot of songs that say different things than what the title says. Does that sound like a lame excuse? Because it is. I was freaking stupid. | |

I, too, always thought it was ghoul. This reminds me of 1984 when Prince first released "When Doves Cry".Some friends and I were sitting in class,trying to write down the lyrics.One line confused us and so this is what we came up with.... and in the most tricherious poses,they feel the heat,the heat between you and me  "tricherious"?? Does that word even exist?? lol | |

I found this hilarious news item on a Donna Summer forum
JUN 6] From the world of misunderstood lyrics - here's one that's making the rounds. Apparently the fast food chain, Wendy's, has a karaoke CD that they give out as a prize with some of the kids' meals. One of the songs included on the CD is Last Dance. Now you guys are going to want to either stop and play the song, or just run it through in your head to understand the part I'm talking about. Think about the last chorus where Donna sings "I need you by me, beside me to guide me/ to hold me and to scold me/ Cause when I'm bad I'm so so-oooh bad...." (It's right before the "come on baby dance that dance" lines.) Okay, the lyrics on the karaoke CD say that Donna is singing "Cause when I'm bad I'm so horny." Naturally some parents are up in arms about this. A few have (through the power of suggestion apparently) even heard the word "horny" in the song now - after years of never ever having noticed it before. LOL The words are very definitely "when I'm bad I'm so-oooh bad." It's the way Donna holds the word "so" that's throwing people off. (I should go submit that to the guys at kissthisguy.com - they maintain an archive of misheard lyrics that is sometimes pretty hilarious.) You know, I sort of feel like I want to go to Wendy's and buy a kids' meal now just for the stupid CD. LOL

okay maybe somebody can help me cause i STILL don't know what Duran Duran is saying in The Reflex (too lazy to look the lyrics up i guess). but for 20 years i've been saying this part:
I'm on a ride and I wanna get off, but they won't slow down the roundabout (correct) I sold the radio wire and TV set, don't wanna be around when this gets out.... (PRESUMED lyrics)
is that correct? help! | |

Duran Duran "The Reflex" LyricsTranslation in progress. Please wait...
"You've gone too far this time" But I'm dancing on the valentine I tell you somebody's fooling around With my chances on the dangerline I'll cross that bridge when I find it Another day to make my stand High time is no time for deciding If I should find a helping hand CHORUS So why don't you use it? Try not to bruise it Buy time don't lose it The reflex is an only child he's waiting in the park The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark And watching over lucky clover isn't that bizarre Every little thing the reflex does Leaves you answered with a question mark I'm on a ride and I want to get off But they won't slow down the roundabout I sold the Renoir and the TV set Don't want to be around when this gets out CHORUS Oh the reflex what a game he's hiding all the cards The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark And watching over lucky clover isn't that bizarre Every little thing the reflex does Leaves you answered with a question mark | |
