In Ready AIm Fire - there is no way he says hyperbole & also I hear feed the creeps with a sticky bone ....

It's weird because I can actually hear hyperbole now but in the beginning, as you know, I was convinced Billie was singing "Baby put her hand in the hay" :lol:

There's no way that he's saying "alien visitor" in I Was A Teenage Teenager. To me it sounds a hundred percent like "I am a medium visionaire"

I've always heard "bullet, bullet" which made sense to me bc the song was originally called Bulletproof Backpack. But I'm probably wrong.

You're like me 😂 I hear bullet bullet too

Nice, thought I was the only one :P

The first time I heard Sugar Youth I was pretty sure "a non-believer" was "pain reliever" and "Gonna dance/ To something wild" sounded so much like "Got a date/ in south Hawaii" lmao

Also still confused on whether the chorus to Graffitia says "Long lost love" or "Long lost hope." Sometimes I hear love, sometimes I hear hope, sometimes I hear both of them at different times.

I wonder if BJ uses Spotify & confuses his google home mini with song requests.  😏

That love / hope thing for me too.   I like it both ways but like many Green Day lyrics, the wrong ones may be better.   Haha

Oh Love has my ultimate misheard lyric.  While hearing the crummy leak version, I heard "this amazing night" instead of "waste away tonight" and was so angry with the correct words.

Whenever I'm in a Longshot mood, listening to Cult Hero but not looking at the lyrics, I always hear:

"I am a healer/ at the duck 'n' phony show/ Why's Vanessa the lesser known/ Cuz I'm on a vehicle, here I go" :P

I know it's stick a hammer in your mouth, you're a liar in Fire Ready Aim yet every single time I hear it all I can hear is stick your hand down in your bum, you're a liar.

Oh! I didn't know stick a hammer in your mouth was the correct lyric. I assumed I was mishearing it because I normally do mishear Billie's words! :lol:

Apparently all of *cough* Network's *cough* songs since there aren't official booklets. 

Well, except Roshambo ♡

When Van Gogh sings "Spastic Society" if you're not really listening lyrically it sounds like he sings "Plastic Fireplace" :lol:

In Hitchin a Ride, is the line "poison oak, no" or poison, oh no".  

I will always sing oak.
