When my daughter was a toddler, she liked a song by Paul Young entitled “Every Time You Go Away.” The rest of the lyric was “You take a piece of me with you.” My daughter heard and sang, to the delight of her parents, “You take a piece of meat to eat.” So naturally, that’s what my wife and I always sing over that song.
When I was in high school, there was a song entitled “Cool Jerk” (The Capitals), and my buddy was driving down the road singing “Pool shark.”
My wife straightened me out that the Gin Blossoms song “Hey Jealousy” wasn’t “Hey Chelsea.”
Billy Joel’s song wasn’t “I go for Ice Cream” (Extremes). And Creedence didn’t sing “There’s a Bathroom on the Right.”
How ‘bout you? Any misinterpreted song lyrics?
