Misheard Lyrics (Non-Prince Edition)

Inspired by lust's post over on Prince: Music and More...

I'll go first...

At 2:02 of "Another One Bites The Dust," I have always heard "I'm not adopted!," but I'm pretty sure that ain't what Freddie is singing.

Heatwave - 'Grooveline'

Actual lyric: "Rain shine, dont mind, we're riding on the grooveline tonight"

What I heard: " Ancient woman, we're riding on the grooveline tonight"

It made sense because I always pictured him singing to this reall regal woman with a headress and flowing hair, and amulets and such. I like my lyrics better razz

This is what you want...This is what you get.

When I was a Kid, when I heard "Bennie And The Jets", I thought Elton John was singing "She's got electric BOOBS". But it's really "She's got electric boots/a mohair suit!!"

cool

I've got another Elton John classic lyric:

"But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly...slowly

Hold me closer Tony Danza"

spit hmm typing
