In Nice Guys Finish Last, in the chorus he says "when you are the outcast" and I thought he said "When you run out of gas" even though he does say it in the first verse lol.

I always thought it was "you're running out of gas" I still sing it that way :ninja:

I always thought the line 'Sometimes, I wish someone out there will find me' in Boulevard of Broken Dreams was "Sometimes, I wish a mother bear will find me.' :pinch:

And instead of 'My shadow hearks' I heard 'My shadow <3's)

Isn't it "My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating"? not "Shadow hearks"?? :blink:

Or have I just seriously been getting it wrong. Pretty sure it's that though?

This reminds me of when my best friend used to think it said 'I wore cologne" instead of "I walk alone" hahaha :lol:

eeep, your right. *facepalm* I used to think it was hearks, I started getting it right, now I'm getting it wrong again.

Yup, I'm a retard. :whistle

In Holiday I thought "Just 'cause, just'cause, because we're outlaws yeah" was

"Just 'cause, just 'cause, because we're on a dare"

And in Roshambo I thought after "I don't believe in Valentines"

I thought it kept going as

"I don't believe I has a minion

I don't believe in strange but true

I am not looking for a bogan

All I really believe in is you"

I only realized today what the real lyrics are :lol:

In Hitchin a ride:

I heard: "I meant it Salmonella poison"

While it was " Fermented Salmonella poison"

I heard: "Tonight I "meat or crow""

While it was "Tonight I'm eating crow"

In On the Wagon:

I heard: "For input twice the size of my one-aged mind"

While it was: "For input twice the size of my one inch mind"

I heard: "Well today I say sweet things about tomorrow"

While it was: "Well today I say sweet things, but tomorrow"

In Disappearing Boy:

I heard: "I'm looking, sharing my own joy"

While it was: "I vanished from all your joy"

(I had no idea what he was saying there so I made up something :D)

I heard: "Or am I climbing on the stairs"

When it was: "Or am I playing on the stairs"

In Holiday:

Just before the "representative from California" part:

I heard: "Take four"

While it was: "Three, Four"

In I Fought the Law

I heard: "Bacon rocks in the hot sun"

While it was: "Breaking rocks in the hot sun"

There are probably even more (I've posted here quite many already), but sometimes you don't know that you've been singing the song with incorrect lyrics for many years before you check it up.

the same here but I know why, cause the lyrics on the International Supervideos! dvd were like this :D

In Longview I can always here "And Im fucking lonely" but its "And Im fucking breaking"

I think it actually is "lonely" and they didn't change it in the songbook but although I sing "breaking" :lol:

i can't even remember how much songs i thought a different lyrics but now i know them all :P

really all? I don't know all, just the songs from SOSH, Kerplunk!, dookie, Insomniac, american idiot and 21st Century Breakdown but not all of nimrod and Warning :unsure:

In Blood, Sex and Booze, I thought is was 'from a girl called Bill' instead of 'a girl called kill'. I didn't know what he was singing about :unsure:

It is actually lonely...You can hear Billie sing it really well acoustically at the Bridge School Benefit.

It's around 2:35

In BOBD i always thought it was "Sometimes I Wish Someone Up There Will Find Me" instead of "Sometimes I Wish Someone Out There Will Find Me"

in Tight Wad Hill i thought the first line was "Cheese Cake on a Hill" and in Panic Song i thought it said "Ready For a Cheap Skate?"
