21guns&novacaine Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I thought the line "Your screams and cries are never going to work" was actually "Like a bird going to work..." and I imagine a pigeon with a Fedora going to take a dump on Peter Griffin's car When you listen to 409, I swear I hear it that way every time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNICORN VOMIT Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I always thought it was "wiping matches from her eyes". I like nachos better. I hear matches. Had to look up the lyrics because of your post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loveblondiebilliejoe Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I just thought of another one. In Dry Ice I always thought that Billie keeps saying, "she is the pain that's in dry ice" which actually makes a lot of sense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panda Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Whenever I listen to Give Me Novacaine I unterstand "Jimmy says it's better than air" instead of "Jimmy sais it's better than here" Minority - "She scream under me" instead of "she screamed unto me" When I Come Around - "So don't do what you like" instead of "So go do what you like" Hitchin A Ride - "Hey Mr. where you headed, are you read the lyrics" (I know, fucking unlogic) instead of "Hey Mr. where you headed, are you in a hurry" Brain Stew - "And still I dry" instead of "And still I try" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Benjamin Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I thought Rusty James said "your heart can't even radiate when it doesn't even pound" instead of "break". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian's Inferno! Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 When I first heard American Idiot I thought the lyric was "All across the alien nation" at first. Then I thought it was "All across the idiot nation" and then I found out it was "All across the alienation". I was kinda right the first time though lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teenage Kicks! Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I thought the lyric in wow that's loud was "you'll go gay with flowers in the dirt." Just found out he says "your bouquet" Wtf ha 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hermione Posted July 13, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2015 Youre dumb. *You're. And there's no need to be rude, this thread's just a bit of fun so people should be able to post about their misheard lyrics without judgement. Also I wonder if you could hear lyrics sung in a foreign language perfectly when you were 13 years old? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Panda Posted July 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2015 Youre dumb. I'm learning real english for only 1 and a half year, the rest of the 3 years english lessons was wasted time because of unable, stupid teachers. I understand english (as long as you don't speak to fast), but understanding songs is much more difficult if I don't know the lyrics. Sometimes when I listen to a song I'ver never heard I understand every single word, sometimes I just understand a few parts or totally shit and then, after I read the lyrics, I laugh and wonder about myself how I could understand something like that 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tre_Archer Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) LOL Okay, I have a really interesting one. In When I Come Around, my mom (been a Green Day fan since like '93) has always sang "so don't knock down my door" as "sell donuts at my door". I get into arguments with her everyday about it, and she vehemently believes that is the actual lyric. She actually believes BJA says "sell donuts at my door". There's no convincing her. At this point I just think she's trolling me. Also one that makes me laugh everytime, in Horseshoes and Handgrenades I always hear "Homophobia only really counts" instead of "Almost only really counts" Oh, and just a general thing, please don't tell me I'm the only one that has to listen to most GD songs from 1995 and earlier really closely tp hear the lyrics properly? Its mostly a 1039 smoothed out Slappy Hours and Insomniac thing, but still. It troubles me. Since we are on Static Age, I always thought "I can't see a thing in the video" was "I can't see me in the video" Up until I read your comment, I always thought it was "I can't see a thing on the radio". Which thinking now, is really stupid haha. Edited July 16, 2015 by Tre_Archer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
