Misheard Green Day Lyrics

[Unholy Sister of Grace]

Gloria........Eva Longoria........ Instead of Gloria....viva la Gloria

My favorite one so far

All these posts are lies in an attempt to get likes.

[St.JimmyxChristiansInferno]

"You're an X - Kid and you never even got sarted again"

my mom thought Billie sang

"You're a mexican and you never even got started again" lol I dont really hear it, but she does

Lmao they're not "lies". Loads are genuine, and the rest are just things people have noticed that the lyrics sound a bit like that are amusing even though they know that's not really what it is.

[MuricanIDIOT]

When I was a kid I thought Jesus of Suburbia said "Would you like to sing along?" when it really said "I'm the son of rage and love" and in Homecoming I thought the lyrics were "You taught me how to lose" when its actually "You taught me how to live"

[uhleckseee]

Just looked this one up today from hearing a demo and the lyrics were off. I thought they had maybe changed them along the way to recording Shenanigans, but I guess not.

"Don't Wanna Fall In Love" lyrics:

I ain't no dog without a bone

What I thought it was:

I ain't no drunk without a bong.

[Ludwig van Beethoven]

I thought that it was "I live inside this Pencil Case..." instead of "I lived inside this mental cave..". (Burnout)

[greendayinsomniac]

I used to think that in Geek Stink Breath that Billie was saying "I'm blowing of steam I'm addicted to me" instead of "I'm blowing off steam with Methamphetamine."

[tdlyon]

Isnt it for "For living on peanuts"?

Nope, living on Venus

[The Grouch is Tracy]

"I am the pullout in your magazine", as in centrefold.....seemed to make sense until I figured out the real (and much deeper) line. But to be fair, a lot of strange lyrics have come our way!

Obviously from Baby Eyes

What the fuck. I never actually looked through the lyrics but I thought it said "I'm blowing off steam well, it's nothing to me". Damn you annunciation.

[Marina86]

And in Murder City I used to hear "This demonstration of our English" and I was unable to figure out it was actually "anguish" ^^

ha ha THIS! Always thought the same thing xD

At the end of Worry Rock : Promise me no guarantees, and i'll guarantee we'll have good love.

[ollhjr]

In Platypus I thought for the longest time that Billie was saying cross-eyed Jew instead of cause I hate you. I just realized how stupid that was when I hate you is in the title of the song.

When I was a kid I thought Jesus of Suburbia said "Would you like to sing along?" when it really said "I'm the son of rage and love" and in Homecoming I thought the lyrics were "You taught me how to lose" when its actually "You taught me how to live"

In JOS, first I thought it was "I'm the son or angel of" and then I thought it was "I'm the son of asian love".

[fromdecimateddreams]

I've misheard a lot, but I think Minority was my most memorable.

Actual lyrics: Like a sheep runs from the herd

What I heard: Like a shithead runs from Earth

And don't even get me started on what I used to hear in Horseshoes and Handgrenades.

[Mr. Shluffy]

In the live at red 7 verson of Let Yourself Go, the part where it says, "small minds seem to think alike," for the longest time I heard, "small ma sfghs to frequent reich"

[fromdecimateddreams]

Even though I know better, I still always hear "I just want some action, so give me Mike Dirnt" in Nuclear Family.

[JOE THE X-KID]

I always thought it was "the modern worlds just a lie" in Jesus of Suburbia

[Trotsky]

Just reminding everyone:

"I've heard it all before

Sell doughnuts at my door"

You will hear those words for the rest of your life.

Oh my god yes

[Jon Herroon]

To this day, I am still unsure about the lyrics in FOD.

Does he say "I'm taking pleasure in the doubts I've passed to you." or "I'm taking pleasure in the masochistic youth." ?

Because I always thought it was "I'm taking pleasure in the doubts I've passed to you", but a friend of mine told me about the masochistic youth lyrics she read on a lyrics site, and now I'm not so sure about it.

I've been singing it my way for years, and I'll feel so weird if i realize it's been wrong this whole time.

And I'll feel even weirder if he takes pleasure in the masochistic youth.

XD

I always thought it was "I'm taking pleasure in announcing this to you".

[belinda jane]

pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken gnomes.

every time.

[99-revolutions]

The only thing this thread has taught me is that Billie needs to enunciate better.

[IlariaIDIOT]

In brutal love I was convinced "My book, pities and SODA"

Even though I know better, I still always hear "I just want some action, so give me Mike Dirnt" in Nuclear Family.

Story of my life.
