Songs you completely change the words of...

There's so many songs I change all the words to at particular parts because they sound better, or funnier in my eyes.
Anyone else done/do this?

I always sing "not to build a dam" instead of "not to give a damn" in Lemar's 'If There's Any Justice"

I've recently changed the words to Wiley's 'Heatwave' - "Imma party, Imma dance, put your hands down my pants"

(not to get this confused with the Misheard Lyrics thread)

Whenever I listen to "Boyfriend" by Justin Bieber, I prefer to sing the lyrics of this version of the song.

when i listen to stand up by jessie j i say "if you dont reach for the moon you can't follow the stars" instead of "if you dont reach for the moon you cant fall on the stars" only because her way does scientifically make sense. the moon is closer to us than the nearest star by quite a lot so i use my way of saying it as you have to start small before you can go big because her way just makes no sense.

I sing along with Taio Cruz - Dynamite

"I throw my ferret in the air sometimes, saying ay-yo, this is Draaaaco!"

Taken from a FB page (Harry Potter fans will of course get the reference) so I don't take credit for it, but I always sing along that when I hear the song!!

I completely rewrote 'Don't Look Back In Anger' as 'Don't Look Back In Asda'. It's virtually an advert for the store in my mind now.

I have another:

"Do you really want to hurt me, do you really want to hear his crap!"

Thanks to Without a Paddle

I always thought Wiley was singing 'balls in a heatwave' and it was really awkward. I still can't shake that lyric, it goes through my mind every time I hear it. (Worst n1 of the year btw).

Also, DS really needs to do something about their default Wiley picture, this is a really bad photo

Before I knew the title of the song, I thought Manic Street Preacher's "If you tolerate this, your children will be next" was "If you tell a rapist, your children will be next"

When I first heard Lady Gaga's second big hit, the combination of 'poke' and 'face' in the title made me think of Facebook's Poke option. I therefore think that the lyrics should be "...no he can't read my Facebook page (she's got me on Limited Profilie)".

"The First Cut is the Deepest" by P. P. Arnold (and covered by many popular artists) - I always feel that the third word is missing a letter.

Adele - Skyfall

I sing "Let the sky fall, apple crumble". Sometimes it's "rhubarb".

Coldplay's Paradise: I try to find words beginnng with para- to sing instead, and have turned it into a drinking game:

Para, para, paraglide
Para, para, parachute
Para, para, paralysed
Every time she closed her eyes

Para, para, Paraben
Para, para, Paradigm
Para, para, Paradox
Oh oh oh oh oh ooh oh

Para, para, Paraffin
Para, para, Paragraph
Para, para, Parakeet
Oh oh oh oh on ooh oh

I read a misheard lyrics site a few years ago and one that stuck in my head was Depeche Mode's - Personal Jesus. The line is "reach out and touch faith" but this guy thought it was "retarded f**k face".

Now I can't hear the song without singing the far ruder lyric in my head!

There is probably a more recent thread on this same subject but I can't find it so...

Ages ago in the TV forum, there was a thread about 'Sex toys on This Morning'. One poster commented that the title made them think of the Womack & Womack song Teardrops! Now whenever I hear that song, I always want the chorus to start "Sex toys on This Morning reminds me baby of you"!

In Gianluca Bezzina's "Tomorrow", I sing;

"Good old Jeremy likes some sugar in his tea"
( Good old Jeremy likes his rigorous routine)

and also from the same song;

"Every time she slips away its close but no cigar"
(Every time she slips away its close but yet so far)

When I sing the second verse to "Home" by country singer Dierks Bentley instead of saying "No, we're not the same, but that's what makes us strong.", I say, "No, we're not the same, got to pray for who is wrong."

God bless you and Dierks always!!!

Holly

P.S. Sadly I have seen a lot of wrong in my life.

The chorus to Heaven by Emeli Sande sounds like "vinegaaaaarr" so I sing that.

Also I've changed Taylor Swift's "Never Getting Back Together" to "Weeeee are never ever. Breaking up, no never etc." to make her seem like the crazy needy high maintenance girlfriend she most likely is.
