Twisted lyrics

[Blue Cow]

Hi All,

I really am the worst for this. And the worst thing is, even once I know the correct words, I still sing the wrong ones out of habit (how embarrassing) :blush:

Elton John, Bryan Adams and Paul Young are some of my worst.

Ones that I can remember at the moment:

Bon Jovi - Blaze of Glory
"Shot down in a blaze of glory"/ "Shot down in a place of loving"

Michael Jackson - Billy Jean
"But the child is not my son"/ "The generation of my son"

Seal - Kiss From A Rose
"I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey"/"I compare you to a kiss from a rose from the grave"

Eagles - Peaceful Easy Feeling
"I've got a peaceful easy feeling"/ "I gotta east coast easy feelin"

Sister Sledge - We Are Family
Still don't know the right words :lol: /"We're giving love in our family jewels"

Madonna - Papa Don't Preach
"Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep"/ "Papa don't preach, I'm in lucid dreams"

Anyone got any good ones?

Ahh yes Billy Ocean - I remember my little brother (when he was about five) singing:

"Get out of my dreams, and into my bed"

(BTW - I get the mash potato thing!!!)

[hollygolightly]

I'm racking my brains now trying to remember the ones I sing (and there's quite a few! :blush: :lol: ), I'll keep a little s******** of paper handy to write them all down!! :lol:

Mashed potato? :blink:

[mazza]

Mashed potato? I'm with U Holly :blink: We have clean & serene minds you see... :lol:

I always thought Annie Lennox was singing ''save me from the blacks'' :o and I was very disgruntled for very many years that she got away with that until it was pointed out to me that she sings ''save me from the glass'' (with a northern accent for glass, not southern glarrrrsss as I would speak!). It's from 'Walking on Broken Glass'' (or whatever it's called) :D

Also, here's a well obvious naff one - what do those birds say in the 'Ketchup Song...''boogie and the wheelie bin??'' Someone told me it's ''boogie all your wiggly bits'' :lol:

The very worst song for misunderstandings though has to be the Israelites one - practically every sentence is misunderstood (although they all escape me for now :blush: )

:D

[Annabel]

mazza, dont even give that ketchup song a second thought, if i told you the proper words it wouldnt make any difference..

the words are a mish mash of made up mutations of various words in spanish , possibly italian and french....

so if you think it says 'wiggly bits' (it doesnt), then you go with it!!!

BTW I can never make out the words in U2 songs...

I like 'More than a Woman' by the bee gees to which i always sing 'bald headed woman'... :lol:

[Neighboured]

There's a song by Tina Turner with the lyrics sounding like: "Give me a lifetime trousers and a world of drains" :lol: ;)

Bonnie Tyler's: "It's a hard egg, nothing but a hard egg"

Desmond Decker: "Ooooh, me ear's are alight" :D

[Blue Cow]

Neighboured LOL :lol:


And who can forget Don Mclean's classic line from American Pie:

"Put my Chamois in the levy but the levy was dry"

(I always thought he was talking about cleaning windows - until about a year ago - a-hemm :blush: )

[hollygolightly]

I was singing along to a song yesterday, can anyone tell me what the song's called and who it's by (a band)....

"Pulling muscles for Michelle..."

:rolleyes: :lol:

[Blue Cow]

Hi Holly - is this it??

Squeeze - Pulling Mussels (From the Shell) (http://www.squeezefan.com/Songbook/Pulling_Mussels.htm)

[hollygolightly]

hehehe

Top marks BC :thumbs:

And, for my next one... :rolleyes:

"Brown ski's and cinnamoned hands...."

I'm pretty sure it's been in the top ten most of last summer :rolleyes: :lol:

[hollygolightly]

And :lol: what about the top ten Christmas single,

"We're Going to Sainsburys"

:P

[Blue Cow]

Holly - I'm giving up on both of these :(

Please put me out of my misery!!

[mazza]

:lol: Please save me too Holly, I know it's familiar !! :blink:

I heard one today - the new Pink one : 'if God is a Dj, life is an a$$hole'' I thought it says, but it's 'life is a dancefloor' !!! :hihi:

(time for bed, methinks...)

[hollygolightly]

I'm sorry I can't help with the cinnamoned hands one - I haven't a clue who it's by, it might be called Summer Dance :blink: :lol:

The second one is, of course, Kelly and Ozzy with "We're going through changes..."

:lol:

[mazza]

Of Course !!! :hihi: D'oh!!

[Blue Cow]

Derr!! :banghead: Of course!

[hollygolightly]

It has taken me sooo long to find this out, I hope you're all impressed with me :lol:

The song about cinnamoned hands.... (I wasn't far off actually ;) )

The Underdog Project - Summer Jam (http://www.theunderdogproject.com/?View=songtext)

See, I couldn't even get the blinkin title right :lol: :blush:

All sorted now! We can all sing along!

Anyone else recognise it now? :rolleyes: :P

[Blue Cow]

Thanks for all the trouble Holly (as it was bothering me ;) )


....but sorry to say that I still don't recognise it!!

:sad: :sad: :blush:

[mazza]

:(
Don't recognise it either, but then they might not have received it yet here in hillbilly land :lol:

[Beth]

you will have to sing it Hol before we get it!!!

sing it loudly so we can all hear!!! :lol: :P

[hollygolightly]

I'm singing, I'm singing, can't you hear me? :lol:

I've just tried to see if I can get the music link here and went to a site and my puter went all funny (so I'm not going to try that one again...) Is there a techy person out there to help? Please :blush: :kisss:

[bulliedbutbolshieboutit!]

:sad: Sorry Hol - no point me offering to help - I broke my 'puter good style last week - only just got it back :rolleyes: :D

[hollygolightly]

:( It's well and truly broken mine - some MP3 programme.

But need help first with someone putting the song up here, any helpers?

Matthew? Vernon? Mucks? Reinen? Vanner? Anyone?

:blink:

Where are you all when we need you? :lol:
