most of us have heard the lyrics wrong, and some of it is too funny.
My brother-in-law heard "I am woman, hear me roar, as I throw you to the floor"
My kids heard "Nishimoto runway" (their 5th grade teacher) instead of "get your motor running".
Do you have any "fractured lyrics" to share?
Pretty sure we've had this question before, but it's time for an update.

Michael Jackson: Smooth Criminal
I really hear the lyrics wrong. In the beginning he says.......
"She Ran Underneath The Table
He Could See She Was Unable"
I hear..............
"She Ran Underneath The Table
Making Sushi with a nable"
I have no idea what he is saying. The lyrics comes in and out.
The chores:
Annie Are You OK
So, Annie Are You OK
Are You OK, Annie
Annie Are You OK
So, Annie Are You OK
Are You OK, Annie
Annie Are You OK
So, Annie Are You OK
Are You OK, Annie
Annie Are You OK
So, Annie Are You OK,
Are You OK, Annie
Instead I hear..........
Annie Are You Walking

There are alot of singers these days where you can't hear the words, I don;'t think it's so much a bad song as a bad singer, although there are alot of terrible songs around. I was watching The Voice a few weeks ago and Jessie J described a singer as singing too clear, saying she could hear all the words, what was that about, I like Jessie J but can't agree with that. Now Ollie Murs has a new song out, and you can hear every word clearly. Mind you he is an Essex Boy.

Ebony & Ivory -- Paul McCartney & Michael Jackson ... That song kinda makes me choke. Yurk,
Years ago in my aerobics class, our leader blasted “We are the world. We are the children.” The song had a good purpose and brought in money for hungry children (or some good cause) The problem? As the song played the teacher called a certain row up to be on the stage to “entertain” the rest of the class.
That’s just what we wanted, of course.... too rounded, dripping perspiration, red faced with mascara running down our faces. It didn’t take our teacher too long to see that the minute she called our a row that the row walked out of the gym into the cool night air.

When I first heard the Pearl Jam song black I heard "...her legs spread out before me like her body once did" the lyrics they sing is " sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay were laid spread out before me like her body one did" I love the song...just think it's funny how far off my hearing was.
