What songs have you been convinced that the singer is singing something else in the title or lyrics to a song - and it makes no sense?

At first I thought that song 'Erase and Rewind' was singing 'Raisinberry Wine'  (pronounced raisinbry)

I also had a friend who was singing 'Flexic Nuneral' - when the song was called Electric Funeral by Black Sabbath! Even when I pointed it out, he wouldn't accept it, even when i mentioned that there were no such words.

Also a friend singing the Bon Jovi song ' Blaze of Glory' arguing with a whole roomful of people that the words were it 'shot down, in a Bed of Roses'! even though the song was called Blaze of Glory!

So, anyone got any good ones??

Still my favourite, 'Me ears are alight!' by Desmond Decker and the Aces.

There is a whole website devoted to this topic!www.kissthisguy.com

I used to think the words to "Papa Don't Preach" by Madonna was "papadom Creek"

Other funny ones are on http://rathergood.com  She's got a chicken to Ride by the Beatles is a good one.

Someone posted a question on this very site a while back, asking who sang a song with the lyrics "Get your rock salt".

I politely informed them it was 'Rocks' by Primal Scream and also pointed them to kissthisguy.com , as previouly suggested by Matteo.

Get yourself a copy of The Bangles' Manic Monday.

I used to think  that the lyrics  "All of my nights why did my lover have to pick last night to get down" were actually "All of my life why did my mother have to kidnap Sacha Distel".

I still sing the wrong lyrics whenever it comes on the radio. I think my version adds a little Je Ne Sais Quoi to the composition.

I thought at first the lyrics in "king of my castle" went "...must be a reason why i'm free to mud wrestle". I am now informed it is " ...must be a reson why i'm freeing my trapped soul..". still not sure though?
I thought that the lyrics "love, sex , intelligence" by The Shamen were "love, sex and Janet Jackson"! I also misheard "Bad Moon Rising" as "there's a bathroom on the right". I was a kid at the time though. That's my excuse anyway.

I used to think that Herman's Hermits were singing "She's a muscular boy" rather than "She's a must to avoid".

I still swear that in "Billie Jean" Michael Jackson is singing "The chair is not my son".

I forgot about the opening line to Glen Campbell's Wichita Lineman - "I am a linesman for Notts County".
My friend and I sang -Everybodys down on their knees,living like sheep -for INXS listen like thieves.
