Bowling For Soup, 1985. When I first heard it I thought one of the lines in the chorus went "There was YouTube and Blondie and Music still on MTV" instead of "There was U2 and Blondie..."
I was listening to that the other day and thought the same xD
Another few famous mis heard lyrics are:
Alanis Morrisette - You Oughta Know
Actual - The cross I bear that you gave too me
Misheard - The cross eyed bear that you gave too me
Elton John - Tiny Dancer
Actual - Hold me closer tiny dancer
Misheard - Hold me close now Tony Danzer
Robert Palmer - Addicted to Love
Actual - Might aswell face it your addicted to love
Misheard (and directed at MJ) - Might aswell face it your a dick with a glove
REM - Losing My Religion
Actual - That's me in the corner, That's me in the spot light
Misheard - Lets pee in the corner, Lets pee in the spot light
(my personal favorite, first time I heard this I was in fits of laughter)
One Republic - Apologize
Actual - It's too late to apologize
Misheard - It's too late to order fries

For years I thought that the line 'Just today, I won't touch those sickening papers' ('What For?' - James) went 'Just today, I won't touch those cigarette papers'.
My favourite one though was when I realised that my daft mum thought The Three Degrees were singing 'bicycle part' instead of 'My Simple Heart'.
I think I've said these on the misheard thread on music forums, but I'll share them here as they always make me chuckle:
Shaggy - It wasn't me.
Misheard: If she says you're not, convince her say you're gay
Real: If she say a night, convince her say a day
Girls Aloud - Call the shots
Misheard: Just cause you're ace in the bed, and call the shots
Real: Just cause you're raising the bet, and call the shots
Adele - Skyfall
Misheard: Let the skyfall, lemon crumble
Real: Let the skyfall, when it crumbles
Stooshe - Black heart
Misheard: Daddy I've fallen for a lobster
Real: Daddy I've fallen for a monster

When I first heard that song, I thought they were singing 'he's big and he's black' rather than 'he's big and he's bad'! :eek:
My mate used to sing ' A year has passed since I broke my nose' to .Message in a bottle'.
Funny you say that because in that same song I used to think Sting sang “I’ll send an SOS to the Pope” and it sounds nothing like “the World” but I got it in my mind now and can never change it.:)
Macy Gray - I try
"My world crumbles when you are not here"
"I wear goggles when you are not here"
And when my daughter was only about 8, at a party, in front of friends and relatives - singing along to Roxette's 'Dressed for success' "I wanna get dressed, to suck sex..." :eek:

Kids always seem to do these things in front of an audience. My sister is half deaf, so not only does she mishear things a lot, she can't hear how very out of tune she usually is when she's singing. She was in a school Christmas concert once when she was little, and while all the other kids were singing 'Hosannah In Excelsis' in relative harmony, you could hear her even from the back of the hall trilling high above everyone else what she thought they were singing - 'Old Semolina Trousers...'
I don't know who it was that said it, but, thanks to one of my friends, I've not been able to hear the first line of Beat It and think Michael's saying, "Your butt is mine".

Lovely.

Er, okay.
That was originally out during my late GCSE/early A-level underage clubbing days. It was most definitely ''grind that ass''!
I recall no mention of arse/ass licking.
This was around 1995, dunno if a different version has been rereleased since.
My favourite one though was when I realised that my daft mum thought The Three Degrees were singing 'bicycle part' instead of 'My Simple Heart'.
I had no idea what the lyrics of the whole song was until I looked it up!
i like Mexican Turkey
Shaggy - It wasn't me.

Daft Punk - Get Lucky?
My misheard: We'll rub a Mexican monkey
Real: We're up all night to get lucky
Wrapped up like a douche
Another rubber in the night
Real Version
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Wuthering Heights
Eeee-wheee!
It's me; I'm a tree, I'm a wombat.
Oh, so cold at the end of your winter
Real version
Heathcliff!
It's me, Cathy and I've come home
oh, so cold, let me in-a your window

I was shocked one day when I heard my mum sing "He's got a black c**k" too that song :eek:
I thought of one I used to say when I was a baby aswell. The Stone Roses - I wanna be adored, I used to sing as "I wanna be a dome"

I always thought this line was... I can't believe you kiss your c**k good night, but it's really .... I can't believe you kiss your car good night
Also Macy Grey .. I Try
I thought the line .. "My world crumbles when your not here" was ..."I wore goggles when you are not here."
And Queens...Bohemian Rhapsody
The line .. Spare him his life from this monstrosity.... I thought it was ... Sparing his life from his pork sausages.
Gala. Freed from Desire.
I thought the line... Hes got his strong beliefs was .. Hes got his trumbaleese
It really does sound like that doesn't it, it makes me wonder if they did it on purpose!
I'm sure she did it on purpose .. dirty mare
...and I thought it was,
"I can't believe you kiss your carving knife"
