Sean Kingston - Fire Burning
Heard: No exit from the dance floor Soulja Boy is one more
Actual: No exit from the dance floor so them boys want more
And the other day I learned that my younger sister has, for years, thought that Tom Petty's "Free Fallin'" was really "Freak Falling". This is the same person who thought that "shake it like a salt shaker" was really "shake it like a sausage" so this really shouldn't surprise me.

Good lyrics: I think I might be a fortune teller. I read your face just like a letter. The funny thing about the weather is It comes with a side of 'never-never' (or is it 'never- ever'?) Deduction. The lyrics are actually: I think I might be a fortune teller. I read your face just like a letter. The funny thing about forever Is it comes with a side of 'never-never'So the last line in the quatrain is playing off the forever word/sound, not whatever rando weather thing you had going on.

I love that Rihanna lyric... I still can't help but hear "Like I'm a hot guy." It could have been a song about trying to seduce a gay man.

"Before He Cheats" Heard: "... carved my name into his legacy ..." Actual: "... carved my name into his leather seats ..." I thought "leather seat" was singular, but yes, this exactly.

" Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" by Kelly Clarkson; Heard: "... what doesn't kill you makes the fire, footsteps even lighter ..." Actual: "... what doesn't kill you makes a fighter, footsteps even lighter ..." " Since U Been Gone" by Kelly Clarkson; Heard: "... I can't breathe for the first time, I'm still moving on ..." Actual: "... I can breathe for the first time, I'm so moving on ..." " He Loves U Not" by Dream; Heard: "... no chains too, I'm like, so free to do what he likes ..." Actual: "... no chains to unlock, so free to do what he likes ..." " Umbrella" by Rihanna featuring Jay-Z; Heard: "... said I'll always be your friend, don't you know I'ma stick it out to the end ..." Actual: "... said I'll always be your friend, took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end..." " Complicated" by Avril Lavigne; Heard: "... chill out, watch E Ellen 4, lay back, it's all been done before ..." Actual: "... chill out, what you yellin' for, lay back, it's all been done before ..." " Soldier" by Destiny's Child featuring T.I. & Lil Wayne; Heard: "... if his status ain't hood, I ain't checking for him, better be straight if he lookin' at me ..." Actual: "... if his status ain't hood, I ain't checking for him, better be street if he lookin' at me ..." " Super Bass" by Nicki Minaj; Heard: "... he ill, he real, he might got Adele, he pop bottles and he got the right kind of build ..." Actual: "... he ill, he real, he might got a deal, he pop bottles and he got the right kind of build ..."

^^I heard that in "Stronger" and "Super Bass" too. I still sing them both wrong sometimes. Fall Out Boy has some good ones: "Dance, Dance" Actual Why don't you show me a little bit of spine / You've been saving for his mattress Heard Boy, won't you show me a little bit of smut / You've been saving for his mattress "Sugar, We're Goin' Down" Actual We're going down, down in an earlier round Heard We're going down, down and is Lilly around? Actual A loaded gun complex, cock it and pull it Heard A loaded cock complex, cock it and pull it Actual I'm watching you two from the closet Heard I'm watching YouTube from the closet

Plus it just doesn't seem natural to hear the "Breathe Me" singer imply that she's fist pumping and on the prowl at Webster Hall on the weekend...

Moves Like Jagger Heard: "I put on a show, now I'm naked" Actual: "I put on a show, now I make it" Heard: "I've got them moves" Actual: "I've got the moves" I've always thought it was that; it's a shame that you can't really tell what the lyrics are in today's pop songs. I'm having a hard time figuring out "Wild Ones", especially during the chorus. This part in particular: If I took you home and be a woman, show me how you do I wan' race up, down in the cloud with you This is what I keep hearing every single time. What is it actually?

"Wild Ones" is the hardest song to understand since "Sex On Fire".

I finally figured out that part to "Wild Ones":
For the past several weeks, I've been hearing...
If I took you home and be a woman, show me how you do I wan' race up down in the cloud with you
...while it's actually...
If I took you home, it'd be a home run, show me how you'll do I wanna shut down the club with you
Okey-doke; looks like the sweat work is done. ;)

Bad Romance:
Heard: Want you in Morrowind, oh baby it's sick Actual: Want you in my rear window, baby it's sick
I mishear pretty much everything. It sucks. Yet somehow I'm the only one who could understand that part of Wild Ones? Haha. Oh I got the "home run" part confused for "woman" though.

LMAO. I'm really bad because if I misunderstand something I don't look it up, I just live with it. And I'd never got that part of "Bad Romance" and always thought it sounded like that until now.

Yeah, I'm not big on looking up lyrics. I do it occasionally, but typically forget about it by the time I can look online for lyrics. I just found out the Bad Romance lyrics a couple months ago haha. I always wondered what it really was, because I doubted she was singing about Morrowind...

Nicki Minaj - Super Bass
Heard: "seller of the shit, shit" Actual: "sailor of the ship, ship" Heard: "money maker, drip drip" Actual: "when he make it, drip drip"
David Guetta - Titanium (feat. Sia)
Heard: "you shot a hoe" Actual: "you should it loud" Heard: "shoot me down, but I get low" Actual: "shoot me down, but I get up" Heard: "you take your aim, far away, far away" Actual: "you take your aim, fire away, fire away" Heard: "goes to her arm, born to love" Actual: "ghost town and haunted love" Heard: "stone heart, the most bulletproof glass" Actual: "stone hard, as bulletproof glass"
Flo Rida - Good Feeling
Heard: "I get a feeling that I never never knew I never had before, no no" Actual: "I get a feeling that I never never never never had before"
Train - Drive By
Heard: "heftly bang her, home run, ha-ah-ah-ah-ah," Actual: "Hefty bag to hold my I-I-I-I love"

Is it bad that when I read these I think either "I guess I can see that mistake..." and "S/He's probably just making that up."

"S/He's probably just making that up." In mine I have some where I knew those weren't the real lyrics once I thought about it a bit, since they made no sense, but I was lazy to look up the real ones and it was close enough to sing along with.
