Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Ylvis

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!).

Ylvis', "The Fox"
The Misheard Lyrics:
What does the f*** say?
The Real Lyrics:
What does the fox say?
The Story: (Tbh I always thought of that being the lyric too) My friend always sung it ironically. She always said that she has an annoying cousin that always cries for no reason, so she first heard it when she thought of him. Squirrel-friend sang like "What does the f*** say? WAAAA WAAAAAAAAA ( sobbing sounds)" Yeah that's it pretty much so it turned into our friendship joke kinda thing. - Submitted by: Your name lol haha
Ylvis', "The Fox"
The Misheard Lyrics:
What does the fuck say?
The Real Lyrics:
What does the fox say?
The Story: These misheard lyrics have a funny story because the word "fox" before a word that starts with "s" sounds like an explicit word "fuck" - Submitted by: Tagir
