Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Moxy Fruvous

Misheard lyrics (also called mondegreens) occur when people misunderstand the lyrics in a song. These are NOT intentional rephrasing of lyrics, which is called parody. For more information about the misheard lyrics available on this site, please read our FAQ.

This page contains a list of the songs that have stories about their misheard lyrics submitted.

Song names are sorted by first letter, excluding A and The. This is sorted by song title only, not by song title and performer. So if two different performers preformed the same song, you'll see misheard lyrics for both on the same page (provided the song title was spelt the same both times, and misheard lyrics have been submitted for both!).

Moxy Fruvous', "I Will Hold On"
The Misheard Lyrics:
I'll hold the hope that we won't fart.
The Real Lyrics:
I'll hold the hope that we won't part.
The Story: My boyfriend put this song on a mix cd he made for me, and I was listening to it this morning and thinking what a sweet, romantic song it was when I suddenly heard the misheard lyric and did a double-take. I had to rewind it several times before I realized they were, indeed, saying 'part', but I still can't help hearing the other lyric. I prefer to attribute the mistake to the bad enunciation in that part of the song than to any potty-mindedness of my own, though. - Submitted by: KH
