Misheard lyrics can be funny, albeit embarrassing when sung in front of friends. Here are a few I know of.

------------------------------------------------------------
The thread title of course comes from Hendrix's "Purple Haze" - "'Scuse me while I kiss the sky."

The Pixies song made famous by Fight Club, "Where is my Mind?" has the lyrics "Try this trick and spin it, yeah!"
Misheard as: "Try the Shrimp and Spinach, yeah!"

The Smashing Pumpkins song "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" has the lyric "Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a cage."
Misheard as: "Despite all you rave I'm still just a rabbity gay."

The AC/DC song "Long way to the top" has of course "It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll!"
Misheard as: "It's a long way to the Shop if you wanna Sausage Roll!"

Foo Fighters song "Monkey Wrench" has the lyrics "I'll never be your monkey wrench."
Misheard as: "I'll never teach your Monkey French."

Foo Fighters song "My Hero" has the lyrics "There goes my Hero, he's ordinary!"
Misheard as: "There goes my Hero, he's old and hairy!"

Bryan Adam's "Summer of '69" has the opening lyrics "Got my first real six string, bought it at the five-and-dime."
Misheard as: "Got my first real sex dream, I was five at the time."

Green Day song "Good Riddance" has the lyrics "Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road."
Misheard as: "Another turnip boy, the Ford stuck in the road."

AC/DC song "Dirty Deeds" has the lyrics "Dirty deeds and they're done dirt cheep."
Misheard as: "Dirty deeds and they're done with Sheep..."

Robert Palmer song "Addicted to Love" has the lyrics "You might as well face it you're addicted to love!"
Misheard as: "Might as well face it, you're a dick with a glove!"

Nine Inch Nails song "Closer" has the lyrics "I want to fuck you like an animal! You get me closer to god!"
Misheard as: "I want a duck shaped like a triangle! You give my toaster to Bob!"

From "Ghostbusters" - "Who ya gonna call? Ghostbusters!"
Misheard as: "Who ya gonna call? Those bastards!"

Finally, Pink Floyd song "Another Brick in the Wall (part 2)" has the lyrics
"We don't need no education,
We don't need no thought control,
No dark sarcasm in the classroom..."

Misheard as:
"We don't need no education,
We don't need no fucking clothes,
No dorks are spazzing in the classroom..."

------------------------------------------------------------

That's all for now.
Anyone else got any?

I misheard the Jam's Eton Rifles as "Eat Two Trifles"!

and Lionel Richies (?) When the Going gets tough... I thought the chorus was "go and get stuffed"

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

"Revved up like a douche, another runner in the night" or any other weird variants.

Well I always though Tori Amos's song 'Crucify' had the line: "Cheese, cheese, cheese, ohwaha."

I thought "hmm, I like cheese too."

EDIT: Oops, had the title wrong too.

For Free Bird, I used to think "For I must be traveling on now..." was "For I'm a speed traveling on now".

What the fuck is a speed. :S

For the most part those are just some words that happen to fit in there. I've never misheard any of the songs up there as the words the OP claims.

Some of them are altered lyrics - like the AC/DC one for instance.
Some are misheard but polished to make sure they kind of make a bit of sense.

No-one else thought "He's ordinary" was "He's old and hairy"? That was an honest to God misinterpretation.
Also when I heard Peal Jam's "Last Kiss" I genuinely thought he said "I lost my lung, (love,) my life that night."

Also, how can you say "I want a duck shaped like a triangle! You give my toaster to Bob" are "words that happen to fit in there"?

I lolled at "Dirty deeds and they're done with sheep."    That's like the typical good-humoured insult from us Aussies regarding kiwis.

Because someone just thought of some random words that sounded similar to the actual words. That said, I don't know the song so I can't comment on it.

It is your fault now that my co-workers now think I'm a total mental case for giggling at my screen. As you're not a Finn you have no clue how absolutely hilarious that was! Uncut...

+1 for that and that NIN misunderstanding in your OP


edit.

Yes. I'm very very tired.

Taco nazi...

Mwehehe...

thanks for clearing up the Hendrix lyric for me, I actually thought he said "guy" not "sky" And I just didn't really care since hippies tend to do/say random things.

'tisn't plagarism. Plagarism is copying something. Kissthisguy.com was a source, I took the time to write the thread.
An uncredited source maybe, (for the most part,) but this was merely an idea for a thread. Nitpicking is not required, just bloody enjoy it for what it is.

Plagiarism is the practice of claiming or implying original authorship of (or incorporating material from) someone else's written or creative work, in whole or in part, into one's own without adequate acknowledgment.
