This one has much lyric screw up potential.

[Grange]

"Her legs spread out before me as her body layed still"

[The AD]

"Lemony soft, it's a put on" (Eminence Front)

And did I hear you grunt as you shoved it up your cunt?
To bring you to extacy last night.

[Bulletproof]

"I want to rock and roll all night, and part of every day"

- I saw this on the tv show Dharma and Greg...they managed to revolve an entire episode around this lyric.

[Beaver]

The Pinball Wizard has suction cups for wrists

[seldon]

from allstar by smashmouth:
I thought these were the real lyrics for like the first year after i heard it;
"hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get laid [versus paid]"

not that interesting, but hey... its the only time i've misheard lyrics

[Canuk]

He flew to London so it would snow back home
Woooooooo ooooooooooooh Iceman in London
Thought it best he let his bros get some
Woooooooo ooooooooooooh Iceman in London

I think that Splat has that version...

The Tragically Hip have a line...

"Treading the boards, screaming out Macbeth
Just to see how much bad luck you really get"

that I always heard as...

"Trapped in the morgue, screaming at Macbeth..."

For their song "Ahead by a Century" my friend thought it was:

"You are a half bia-centric...."

And instead of "we like to party" (by Aqua or venga boys or some other brutal band):

"Be like retarded, be like, be like retarded"

[G]

NIN animal:

"I want to flush you with an enema,
I want to clean you from the in-side"

[pollard]

"i'm in need of a guy" forget who it is by but I don't think there were actually any words.

"Wash your feet and drive me to Firenze"

[The Suit]

All from the Violent Femmes:

"Disregard my computer business. Please ignore my vacant stare" (misheard by a struggling entrepreneur)

"Oh yeah. Well don't get so distressed. Did I happen to mention I like your breasts?"

"Lemme go on, like a blister up my bum."

[Mr. Altagirl]

My buddy singing " Soup and Salad bar" instead of "Suicide Blonde" by INXS (it was the early 90's). I had to slap him as I drove. Honestly, who sings about a soup and salad bar (except Homer Simpson).

[Big Tim]

And this classic from No Doubt.
"It's all your fault I screeeeam my balls off"

That's some funny shit. You realize you just completely ruined one of my favorite songs from that era.

I used to DJ in a bar at school, and one night this little freshman chick asked me to play "Oh, Itsy-watsu!"

I asked her to sing it for me.

It turned out to be "Roam...if you want to" by the B-52's.

But she had nice boobs, so I didn't laugh at her too much.
