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!).

Row joe!
We're going home with screaming peaks and Bart's a-coming!
Down hay, it makes us wanna die!
Ho ho!
Away we go with rosy cheeks and hearts aglowing
Hey hey, it makes us wanna cheer!
The Story: The kids are singing when a delivery man delivers a Christmas thing. - Submitted by: Taylor R. Smith
Move my beat to the feet down in my brain,
Singing for the people that's how I roll;
Who would guess that a stinky lady
Can sing for the ugly world
Move my feet to the beat down in my soul,
Singing for the people that's how I roll;
Who would guess that a regular girl
Can sing for the whole wide world

Wetter, wetter, wetter, wetter you don't like it.
Wetter, wetter, wetter, wetter a chef naked.
Whether, whether, whether, whether you like it or not.
Weather, weather, weather, weather is cold, warm and hot.
The Story: Chefs are naked and don't like you?! - Submitted by: Taylor R. Smith
No! It's Spanish Gold for all today, for king and country now we'll never fight.
Our shirts aren't loose, our pants aren't tight!
It's Spanish Gold for all today!
It's Spanish Gold for all today.
Oh! It's Spanish Gold for all tonight!
For king and country now we fight.
Our shirts are loose, our pants are tight!
It's Spanish Gold for all tonight!
It's Spanish Gold for all tonight.
The Story: Pirates and restaurants colliding? - Submitted by: Taylor R. Smith
We are the Pirates Who Always Do Everything,
We just go to school and eat all day!
And if you ask us, to do everything, you'll tell me "we do everything".
We are the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything,
We just stay home and lie around.
And if you ask us, to do anything, we'll tell you 'we don't do anything'.
The Story: Pirates colliding in school? - Submitted by: Taylor R. Smith
Have you ever eaten a king?
A bandit who stole your things?
The ladies only asked for a detective's name on their autograph books.
Have you heard the one about Alfred?
A dangerous robot I'm told.
He's got lasers for eyes, and a microchip brain, and his skin is terribly cold!
The Story: Weeds popping over a town - Submitted by: Taylor R. Smith
The practice grew, their prophets died 'til one fateful night,
When the nurse said "If it's all the same to the King, do you want to be a rich man?"
The doctor shrugged like if he was saying 'I don't know'. Then said, "Forget about it!"
To the nurse of the yodeling pickle of the Alps!
The practice grew, their profits flew until one fateful day
When the nurse who assisted the doc asked for a raise in pay.
The doctor pondered this awhile, scratched his scalp and said "No way, Jose!"
To the nurse of the yodeling veterinarian of the alps!
The Story: Doctors and quartets colliding? - Submitted by: Taylor R. Smith
Jonah was a prophet, poo poo! But he really ever got it, go away!
Jonah was a prophet, ooh ooh! But he really never got it, sad but true!
The Story: Pirates and Bible heroes colliding? - Submitted by: Taylor R. Smith
Jonna was a profit, woo hoo! But she really never got it, happy but false!
Jonah was a prophet, ooh ooh! But he really never got it, sad but true!
The Story: When I say Jonah, I mispronounced as Jonna. When I say prophet, then I said profit. Ooh ooh is a 'meant-to-be' sentence that I said Woo Hoo. Sad but true became the opposite of Happy but False so that's what I type. - Submitted by: William Broncano
