Have you ever listened to some music and you think certain words are used in the song but it turns out to completely different? Well, here's a thread to share these with everyone.
Okay I'll start with a couple (I might remember some more later)... 
The first one is The Cult, She Sells Sanctuary. I thought the lyrics of "the world turns around/drags me down" was "in the world's transit van".
The next one is Rihanna, Only Girl. I thought "I want you to love me, like I'm a hot ride" was "I want you to love me, like I'm a half-pipe".
Finally, T-rex, 20th Century Boy. I thought "everybody says it's just like rock n roll" was "everybody says it's just like Robin Hood".
What the hell was I thinking? 
Anyway I can't be the only person right, so swallow your pride and admit your mistakes in this thread

Jimi Hendrix and Purple Haze ... "scuse me while I kiss this guy" ... er, that's "scuse me while I kiss the sky." I blame cheap speakers.

^ ^ I actually had to show my friend the album cover back in the day, as she wouldn't believe it was Liberian, not librarian. Broke her perfect image of a librarian being so adored.

Queen: dont stop me now "I'm a shooting star leaping through the sky Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity" I thought it was "like a dragon"... no idea why... maybe made more sense though  |

Until not so long ago I thought that in Iron Maidens song Run to the hills they sing "women and children and cowboys, attack!" When it really is "women and children are cowards attack"

For those with a knowledge of Japanese, there's an actual segment on a popular late night variety based around submitted misheard lyrics of non-Japanese songs. The show takes the submissions and even makes little videos for them based around the misheard version. The host and guest judge give swag to the submitters of the ones they find interesting (Marty Friedman is a fairly regular guest judge!) You can find some on youtube typing soramimi hour, and if you're up to reading Japanese, there's a fan database: www7a.biglobe.ne.jp/~soramimiupdate/(My favorite is Mudhoney - Getting Over Sickness, the translation of the Japanese misheard lyrics being "I love lotus root" "I love lotus root" "I love lotus root" "Who the hell was that?" (it makes sense with the video) |

I remember on a road trip from college to my folks my girlfriend and I debated if it was 'Are we human or are we dancer(denser)' for like two hours of it. We didn't have phones with internet, so we couldn't just look it up. She thought I was being an ass and was seriously mad at me. It was like the first thing we looked up once we got to my folks, and I spent the whole weekend smugly singing the line to remind her I was right about dancer. |

Somebody at work at 2009 was always listening to top-40 radio and they seemed to play "Poker Face" by la signora gaga every 10 minutes. I thought the beginning of the chorus was "good advice, good advice"  |

The musical mondegreen I always remember was "Get your money for nothing and your chips for free". Which, as a kid, made more sense than the actual line; after all, who would want some baby birds when you could have chips?

Another mix-up for me was Michael Jackson, Billie Jean. I originally thought the line of "... I am the one, but the kid is not my son" was "... I am the one, but the Janet's not my son". This made perfect sense to me at the time |

Queen Bohemian Rhapsody (what is it with me and Queen???) Firstly "So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye???' I thought was 'spread my eyes' for some reason... And then "Oh baby, cant do this to me baby" I thought was "Oh baby, cant do this stupid baby"... That being said I thought the song itself was about someones mom who killed someone and he took the blame for it... ... it was only a few years ago I realized that it was possible that he killed someone and was telling his mom about it |
