    My all time favorite misheard lyric is from Manfred Mann's "Blinded By The Light". I, as well as 99.9 % of the world, hear "Wrapped up like a douche" rather than "Revved up like a deuce". I still think the guy's singing the douche thing !!

    He does a great job of lip synching and selling it

    I have one that I've been singing since I knew the song, Lynyrd Skynyrd's What's your Name.

    What I thought:"What's your name, little girl... Shouldn't you be ashamed". Actual lyrics: "What's your name, little girl... Shootin' you straight".

    Also Skynyrd's That Smell. I have 2 for it.
    What I thought: "Ohh That Smell, the smell that surrounds you".
    Actual lyrics: "The smell of death surrounds you"

    What I thought: "Can't speak a word when you're full of booze"
    Actual lyrics: "Can't speak a word when you're full of 'ludes". (ludes= quaaludes)

    For that last one, both booze and ludes fit the theme of the song.

    Ok I always thought that this was 'There's a road in the midday sun' which I still think makes more sense than 'There's a rose in the fisted glove' and also ties in with the 'If you can't be with the one you love'. Location location location.

    And I have another one. Englan Dan and John Ford Coley, 'I'd Really Love to See You Tonight'. I always hear:

    'I'm not talking 'bout the linen/And I don't wanna share your life'

    for:

    ''I'm not talking 'bout moving in/And I don't wanna share your life'

    OMG I thought It was Wrapped Up Like A Douche. Ha..Too funny how wrong that I was. I always wondered what the heck that line meant. Now it makes sense.
