I wouldn't be surprised if this exists in the MP board, but I thought I'd try it on for size.
The shuffle meme thread has made me realize how bad my hearing is and how bad so many singers' enunciation is, which led me to wonder what other people's THS "wrapped up like a douche" moments are.
My big one: "She's got the bones for gay videos."
I still hear it that way even though I know better.

my sister regularly mis-hears bruce springsteen's 'mary's place' as 'freddie's place'
she also thinks jimi hendrix is singing 'excuse me while i kiss this guy'
and my mum always thought elton john was singing about 'a man who makes cushions' up until a year ago.
oh that and the classic quote from my aunt's friend: "hamish the tambourine man"
we had to pull over because we nearly crashed from laughing so hard.
too funny.

Ages ago there was a thread like this on the Pearl Jam message board for PJ songs, I think the best ones were: "I piss so hard I start to shake" instead of "up here's so high I start to shake" (In My Tree) and "four or five virgins on a pelican" instead of "glorified version of a pellet gun" (Glorified G)  |

"wrapped up like a douche" I refuse to accept that this is not the actual line. |

"wrapped up like a douche" I refuse to accept that this is not the actual line. I see no good reason why you should. Last week, I heard a DJ explain (admit) that she had only JUST learned that it was a Springsteen song. Shouldn't that be grounds for instant dismissal? |

Ha! I used to think Craig Finn sang "We went to some place where she cat sits" on Sequestered in Memphis. Imagine! What's that? Oh...  |

Leiderhossen? (Please correct the spelling if its wrong!) Lederhosen from the Franz Nicolay Collection. I have never actually seen him in lederhosen, nor do I have any special knowledge that he has any, but they go with accordions in my mind. |

The Hamish the Tambourine Man line has me creased up at my desk. 'Erotic Erotic Put Your Hands All Over Bill Oddie' Is the one enduring misheard lyric Oh and the first line of Papa Roach's Last Resort as 'Caught My Wife Eating Feaces' was a popular back in the day at one (weird) guys expense. |
