Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Phil Keagy

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!).

Phil Keagy's, "Time"
The Misheard Lyrics:
When the Lord stop's in
It's too late for a ball of cheese.
The Real Lyrics:
When the Lord stop's in
It's too late for apologies.
The Story: This album was a live recording gosple album featuring Phil Keagy and the 2nd Chapter of Acts. The album the song 'Time' appears on is How The West Was One. The album did not come with lyric's, so for years I could not figure out why anyone would be in such a hurry to make Jesus a 'ball of cheese' let alone why Jesus would want a 'ball of cheese' But then again, I guess it was too late 'for a ball of cheese' so...? - Submitted by: Sara
