FabSwingers.com forum: Wrong words

By (user no longer on site) OP

Today I was listening to a child singing along to 'I will leave the light on' by Tom Walker. Only they didn't know the words and thought it said I will eat bananas. Really made me chuckle.

It reminded me of when I was a kid and thought Gala was singing 'my incense is purified' in the song Freed from Desire. I always wondered what purified incense was.

What have you been singing wrong?

When we had to get lyrics from a cassette tape of the top 40 many words were incorrect being sung by cover bands. I could never figure out the REM song that included the lyrics "covered in chow veka" /

A lad I worked with briefly sang almost everything wrong but one that stuck in my mind he used to sing the “Cupid draw back your bow” line with “Cupid draw back you clothes” which I found more than a bit strange he would think it’s that’s since Cupid is a baby
