"this ain`t a city, it`s a damn odd place"

"this ain`t a scene, it`s a goddamned armed race"

:blink:

i like your misheard lyrics better than the actual ones, make more sense.

My mom thought that in King for a Day during the chorus they were singing "Jail for O.J." hahaha :D

lol

My cousin thought Billie was saying "I'm a Jew" instead of "I hate you" in "Platypus".

Someone (or their sibling) misheard that song as well and they posted a YouTube video clip with their misheard lyrics at the bottom while the song goes on....does that make sense to you? It certainly doesn't make sense to me....

Oh well I'll just post it here:

Oh, and when i listened to American Idiot for the 1st time, i thought Billie said: "Well maybe I'm a fag at America", instead of "Well maybe I'm the faggot America."

Is fag even a word?

*looks up in dictionary*

Oops.. :sweat:

I just realized yesterday that it's 'there's no return from 86' NOT 'there's no return from innocence' which doesn't make very much sense - - it's one of my fav songs but I just got it!! :blink:

I was just listening it Scattered. And where itt said "and all the songs have been erased" I thought it said "and all the songs of Billy Ray's" like a reference to a stupid Billy Ray Cyrus song.

Fall Out Boy - Our lawyer made us change...(live)

Actual lyrics

'We're only good for the latest trends'

What I heard

'We're only pedophiles, latest trends'

:blink:

Maybe it's because this is a live track....

I just were looking random GD vids on youtube.

At a Homecoming vid: "Does he say "cheese" or "geez"?"

Yeah, i know, isn't really funny. But i think it was! :D

I always hear "no thank you" instead of "i hate you" in Platypus. I just can't hear Billie saying that...

Omg! Me too..i couldn't figure what he was on about.. And then i thought, well maybe its 'there's no return from inner sex' (!not much sense there either!) dear dear..

Edit: I'm pretty much completely useless without some form of lyrics to read. I just hear SHIT, man, not even proper words..

The real lyrics were:

So make the best of this test and don't ask why.

it's not a question but a lesson learned in time

But I misheard them as:

So make the best of the desert known as Life..

it's not a lesson but a question asked in mime..

:D:D

lol how do you ask a question in mime?

i had a friend who thought that "Apologize" was:

"It's too late to call the judge..."

real lyrics:

"It's too late to apologize..."

hehehehe

I just have a hard time understanding the lyrics in most Green Day songs because Billie's voice just seems to be one of those hard to understand voices. Most of the time it's like his mumbling and not even singing any lyrics.

I know the lyrics to most (if not all) Green Day songs... but for someone who doesn't it would be realllyy hard to understand anything.

The hardest song I find to understand is The Grouch and Platypus. It all sounds like 'dkjfll sshhg'.
