Misheard Green Day Lyrics


LaughingClock

Recommended Posts

For the longest time I thought that KYE said "They'll be blinded by the light in their eyes." I wish that WERE what it said, because "Don't be blinded by the lies in your eyes" is completely retarded.

I thought that too and I still refuse to acknowledge I was wrong. I agree, what we thought is far better.

In Android, I always thought 'It keeps my head spinning around' was 'It keeps my husband in the ground' haha. I only recently found out I was wrong, still doesn't stop me hearing it that way though xD

It took me until today to realise Brat doesn't go:

Got a plan of action and cold blood

And it smells of deep fried eggs

I'll just wait for Mom and Dad to die

And get my share of the eggs

In Dirty, Rotten Bastards I first heard "I've got the urge, the pigeon's urge!" :lol:

I know it's stupid, but I can't unhear it now.

:lol: I always hear that as "I've got the urge to pigeon search."

My mum had a similar mis-hearing. Only difference was she thought it was "Another turnip boy".

My mum had this too... Weird!

my mom use to sing "some times I wish a mother bear would find me" in boulevard of broken dreams, and my sister use to sing 'she, shes my white whore" in wild one.......and I did indeed laugh out loud


I definitely thought "Sitting undisturbed, it's what I deserve.." in Blood, sex, and Booze was,

"Sitting on the stove, it's what I deserve.." :lol:


and totally off topic, but in Marilyn Manson's "the beautiful people" ... for the longest time I thought he was saying "The beat of a meatball"

I use to think it was "see? im disturved, its what I deserve..." hahaha

I remember I used to hear "desperado, of the night" instead of "this beretta, of the night" in Peacemaker...

There was a "misheard lyrics" version of "Holiday" on YouTube that was bloody hilarious; been taken down by Warner now, unfortunately.

You mean this?

That´s exactly the youtube fun that started my interest in Green Day about two years ago. ;)

"To my armpit now" thought that for years

I JUST WANT SOME ACTION SO GIVE ME MIKE DIRNT

HAHA

For the line in Wild One that says ''for living on Venus'', I thought I said ''vinasse'' in french= in english ''plonk''.

Or Whatsername ''are useless in my mind''= I thought ''are in slice in my mind.''

My english comprehension isn't the best, that's true :D

DOOKIE:

In "Chump" I thought Billie said "Well maybe I'm just done" instead of dumb

Dead honest, in "Welcome to Paradise" I thought Billie said "Some college sluts" instead of "Some call it slums"

In "Pulling Teeth" I thought he said "Is she ultraviolet" instead of ultra-violent

Since I was about 10 years old, in "She" I thought he said "To smash the silence with the brink of self-control" instead of "To smash the silence with the brick of self-control"

INSOMNIAC:

In "Westbound Sign" I thought he said "Fucked up, along with everything" instead of "Boxed up all, of her favorite things" and I thought he said something like "solderers and radio tell" instead of "Sold the rest at a rainy yard sale"

In "Walking Contradiction" it sounds like "Some kids cheap" instead of "Talk is cheap"

Lol, my favorite one, the fist line of "Tight Wad Hill" sounds like "Cheesecake on the hill" instead of "Cheapskate on the hill"

AMERICAN IDIOT:

In "Are we the Waiting" it sounds like he says "Are we we are the waiting or not" instead of unknown

I still hear "I've got the urge to pitch and surge" in DRB, which I actually think is a better lyric.

I always thought it was "I've got the urge to pigeon search."

In Chump I always assumed it was 'well maybe i'm just chump' because I couldn't make it out and that kinda fit! I always wondered what it meant...

Sorry did you mean you thought those were the actual lyrics? I'm pretty sure the word is 'dumb', but it could be anything really, as with lots of the lyrics! :)

In Brain Stew there was a time I thought he said "I hope you forgot some berry" when it was "No rest for crosstops in my mind"
