There are a lot of songs out there that you cant understand what the singer says and so the lyrics get misunderstood.
I always thought that Mick Jagger when he sang Beast of Burden was actually saying Your pizza's burnin'. And Huey Lewis was saying This is a zit not this is it.

"You need Kool-aid. Baby, I'm not fooling"

And this vid is great. It is Fall Out Boys Sugar We're Going Down...someone drew cartoon characters with his interpretation of what the lyrics say, pretty funny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?t=t&pag...&v=nl4hbHwylYA |

One of the funniest examples of sheer stupidity is that these guys with long ass mullets and various examples of trashed 1980's camaros once told me that in AC/DC's "Highway to Hell" that Bon Scott actually said
"Send a N&$#@r on a one way ride"
I fell on the ground and laughed my ass off at these guys, I couldn't believe they actually thought AC/DC was some sort of White Supremiscist group.
Then I looked it up on the net, and sure enough apparently a tone of people think he said a similar thing.

I always thought Claudio was saying "I need Mayo" in Hearshot Kid Disaster. Then I look it up, and he's actually saying it 0_o. |

of course, being the the one hit wonder that it was, they just named it that anyway.
when originally, if you have ever seen the video that goes wit the song, they way too stoned off their @$$ when they wrote the song that the singer couldn't pronounce"in the garden of Eden" |

When I was a little kid, I thought he was singing "Big Ol' Jed in a Lineup."
Then again, I also thought there was a really cool Thin Lizzy song called "The Boys of Megatown."
