Song lyrics you didn’t get as a kid…

[sixfoot4]

And song lyrics you just hot erong.

Another interpretation could be song lyrics you got wrong/misheard and been singing along with the wrong lyrics.
Sure, it’s possible that “Sweet dreams are made of cheese”, but that’s definitely not what Annie Lennox was singing about. Neither was Sir Mix-A-Lot stating “I like big butts in a can of limes” or Starship professing to have “Built this city on sausage rolls” – it was rock and roll, of course. It was also found out that a quarter of us have actually had an argument with pals over misheard lyrics.

Bruce Springsteen - Pink Cadillac.

As a kid I just thought it was about a car.

It is.... not.

It is definitely a radio friendly song about pussy.

 

[Bisexguy70]

I was listening to Radio and heard Hearts song “never”. The lyrics;

You're bangin' your head again
'Cause somebody won't let you in

I just realized it possibly means the guys jerking off because he cant have any pussy.

Thats similar to Princes little red corvette. I suppose now ill listen to that song in a new light. I also thought ZZ TOP pearl necklace actually referred to jewelry.

I play a lot of music, both on the stereo and live. When my kids were little I would hear the lyrics from the perspective of a child… what do the little kids understand of rock-n-roll?

“Oooh baby I love you…”

“Lovin’ in my baby’s arms…”

“My baby left me…”

“I want my baby back…”

“She’s one hot momma…”

When I was a kid? Anything that was popular

 

[PaxDraconis]

When I heard Whitney Houston's "I'm Every Woman" I misheard it as "Climb Every Woman" and I've spent the rest of my life trying to comply with the instruction!!

Some friends and I were asked to play music at a fundraising poker-night event, so we had a couple of practice sessions where we learned a bunch of gambling themed songs.

My kids were in grade school at the time and were playing while we practiced. After the event they kept asking me to play “the game boy song.”

“The game boy song? You mean the Nintendo theme?”

They laughed and giggled. “No! The song about playing the game boy right.”



It took a while, then it suddenly dawned on me:



“… then the night got deathly quiet,
and his face lost all expression.
He said ‘If you’re gonna play the game boy,
you gotta learn to play it right.’
‘Cause you gotta know when to hold ‘em….”

- Kenny Rogers, The Gambler

Greese Lighting. It wasnt till highschool I understood what "chicks will cream" and "pussy wagon". meant I used to sing that song all the time as a kid... i can only imagine what conservative adults thought when I sang it at a church talent show

For a LONG time, I thought the lyrics for Gimme Shelter was from the point of view of a cock...lol...the shelter part being code for a blowjob...

Early this morning, I opened my eyes/And caught you watchin' me sleep

When I was a kid, I had a mental picture of a woman in a wicker chair (those were popular in the 80's), just sitting and smiling at the protagonist when he woke up. For a very long time, it never occurred to me that maybe she was in the bed with him looking at him.

Also --

And deep in your eyes, I see the hunger/That only true love can feel

I'm 42 years old, and to this day, I don't understand what sort of look of unbridled sexual desire I'm supposed to see in a woman's eyes. I'm looking more for signs of high blood pressure, diabetes, or pinkeye. I'm practical like that.

The first time I heard "Tiny Dancer" by Elton John, I thought that the lyrics were "hold me closer, tired of dancing". True story.

Get it on, bang a gong.....the rolling stones.
Hit me with your rythmn stick...Elvis Costello

 

[Dalelaw2164]

I’m Not In Love, by 10CC
I thought the line, “Big boys don’t cry” was
“Be poised and quiet”
My girlfriend, who was hearing her Mom play it when was maybe six or so… thought it was “Quist and quiet”

 

[Harrypalm]

As a kid I thought this song was about a girl at a park.

 

[PastMaster]

Hit me with your rythmn stick...Elvis Costello

that was ian drury and the blockheads

 

[Ingenue844]

I thought this was He-Man Nation

Why would a man eat a woman to “pour some sugar” on him, unless she was excitedly making her own liquid sweetness

A peanut sat on a railroad track,
It's heart was all a flutter.
Along came a choo choo train
Toot, toot. Peanut butter.
