Misunderstood song lyrics.



Recommended Posts

my son was 4 years old and was singing the garth brooks song "I'm shamless" as "I'm Shaveless" I laughed and thought Yes, you are

When my little brother was younger he had a Disney tape that had "Zippity Doo Da" on it. He was four and would sing "Zip in the Doo-Daa, Zip in the A"

Needless to say, he was asked to sing his rendition at every family function! Hilarious.

I now have tears from laughing so hard. Thanks guys, I needed that.

I can SO relate to the A-Ha song and the Falco. But instead, we sang it "Rock me I'm a danish". Hey, leave it to the fat kids to put a food twist on it.

One song I can't figure the words out to this day is Elton John's Benny and the Jets. I used to say "She had elevator boots" instead of "electric boots" which made more sense to me. Otherwise the rest of the lyrics were pretty weird as well.

And Blinded by the Light......... "Blinded by the light. Wrapped up like a douche another roller in the night." LOL I looked it up and it's: "Blinded by the light. Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night." Personally, I liked my version better.

What about the Elton John Classic "Tiny Dancer".

The Chorus goes..... "Hold me closer tiny dancer"

I thought it was......."Hold me closer Tony Danza"

Along with EVERYONE else!

Holy smokes, thanks everyone. This is all too funny.

Jill your encounter with your mother sounds almost like "Who's on First"!

This is a little embarrasing but I thought Inagodadavida was "In the Garden of Eden". And to this day I still sing these words "With 5 Laso Apso's bright and burning and all at once I new she'd Understand, the boy inside the man."

I could never figure out why anyone would want to set 5 of those funny looking long haired dog's on fire but apparrently that sort of thing causes great understanding.

Years ago a Willie Nelson song "Lucille" was on, when my then young daughter says to me "That's just a stupid song--no one has 400 children!" When I ask & then listened to her sing along she sang "With 400 children and a crop in the field, you picked a fine time to leave me Lucille". When I could do so without laughing I explained he actually sang "With 4 hungry children......" Still think of it to this day whenever the oldie comes on!!

Oh yeah, I sang wrapped up like a douche too. Didnt everyone?

There's a midnight oil song Blue Sky Mine, which was a hit back in the late 80's and I swear Peter Garret is singing "who's gonna shave me" not "who's gonna save me".

Oh and Big Yellow Taxi - I thought "they paved paradise, put up a parking lot" was "they paved paradise, put up a f*&king lot!

Wow! I knew about www.kissthisguy.com, but never even bothered to look up "Blinded by the Light". I can't BELIEVE the lyric isn't "Wrapped up like a douche, another roller in the night"!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
