in Fatal, I thought "When April's in May" was "With Eggrolls in Mayo". OK, I didn't actually think that was what he said, but I couldn't hear it as anything else, if ya know what I mean...
Ha! I love these posts. I can't pretend to KNOW what all the lyrics are but I've never unintentionally misheard them. However, my friend thought that Daughter went like this:
"Don't call me Doris ... my beige old cat will remind me."
When I was a nipper I could have sworn that the lyrics to Drop were 'drop the leash get out of my fucking face' instead of 'lucky'.
Well thats it for me but the lyrics to yellow ledbetter I still cant pick up cant pick up maybe I'll try harder cause it's a damn good song!
You know, the lyrics for Daughter in the liner notes are like "violins/ence" or something like that (too lazy to look it up...) so it can go either way, both are right.

What? I've always thought that Leash was "get out of my fucking face". I'll have to listen to that closer on the studio version, but I know I've heard him say "fucking face" on live versions.
I thought the Go lyrics were "turned to my nemesis, a full on fucking God".
I had no idea he was saying "lucky" in Leash. And Yellow Ledbetter is really hard to make out in some spots. But its a great song.
Oh, and hi I'm new.
Dream the dreams of other men
You'll be no one's rival
Unsealed, on a porch a letter sat

On a weekend, I wanna wish it all away, yeah...
And they called and I said that I want what I said...
And then I call out again...
And the reasons, oughta leave her calm...I know
I said, 'I know what I wear, not a boxer or the bag'
Ah yeah...can you see them?
Out on the porch, yeah, but they don't wave
I see them, round the front way, yeah...
And I know that I know...I don't want to stay
Make me cry...
I see, ooh...I don't know why there's something else
I wanna drum it all away
Oh, I said, I don't, I don't know whether I was the boxer or the bag
Ah yeah...can you see them?
Out on the porch, yeah, but they don't wave
I see them, round the front way, yeah...
And I know, that I know, I don't wanna stay alone...
I don't wanna stay...yeah...
I don't wanna stay... (2x)
I don't, don't wanna, oh...yeah...ooh...ohh...

i am guessing eddie hasnt sang these lyrics since about 1994, lol. it changes every single time fo sho which is really hot.

I had a weird one with the lyrics to Green Disease. Mind you. I make it my mission to know all the lyrics properly, and i have never really had a mistake(maybe 1 word, or just forgetting it), until this one...
LYRICS: Believe me just asking you to sway.No white or black just grey.
Can you feel this world with your heart and not your brain?
MISHEARD LYRICS: Believe me , just asking you to stay. No I don't, practise breaking your feelings... One with your heart and not your brain?
Oh the embarrasment when i found out... Only knew because i was going to use them in my msn username so went on lukin to get it properly! HA! lol
PRACTISING BREAKING YOUR FEELINGS sounds great...
It was a dream, not a nightmare. A beautiful dream I could never imagined in a thousand nods. I saw this girl next to me, she wasn't beautiful until she smiled. And I felt that smile come at me in heat waves following. Soaking through my body and out my finger tips in shafts of color. And I knew somewhere in the world, somewhere, that there was love for me.
Ashamed to say, but in black, at the beginning, I thought Ed said:
Her legs spread out before me...
Well, I guess I should be ashamed too, because I've been a PJ fan since the very beginning and to this very moment I would have sworn that was the lyric. I just had to look up the real lyrics on google just to find out what he is really singing. Yikes, all this time I've been singing the wrong line! It's gonna be difficult to sing it the right way now.
yeah, the line "glorified version of a pellet gun" i thought he said "glorified version of a pelican"
Yeah me too! I was thinking, why is he singing about a bird?

i thought jeremy was '...lemony snickets son' instead of 'lemon yellow sun'...haha nah just kidding.
but black has bugged me, because i am certain that it is 'now my bitter hands, shake beneath the clouds'...but some people insist on 'chafe beneath the clouds'. i mean, hands dont chafe, and thats just stupid. also, i have a really cool wallpaper picture with the black lyrics and eddie, but someone spoiled it by writing Chafe in it. sooo annoying when something stupid like that happens.
some of the more common ones i've heard are:
rats: lick the dirt off a larger one's feet/olajuwon's feet
rvm: saw things/soybeans
glorified g: pellet gun/pelican
i thought red mosquito = climbing up slippery hills was................climbing up slippery stairs!
I thought the Go lyrics were "turned to my nemesis, a full on fucking God".
I had no idea he was saying "lucky" in Leash. And Yellow Ledbetter is really hard to make out in some spots. But its a great song.
Oh, and hi I'm new.
ed made the lyrics up on the spot. he doesn't even know what he's on about! CRAZY
OK, I have been listening to Black since Ten came out I have ALWAYS sang, "Her legs spread out before me, As her body holds still." I am I completely insane?
Oh and I truely thinks Daughter says "Violins" but that's funny, I never noticed the (ence) in the CD insert before.
So I once knew a guy who thought Glorified g said, "Four or Five virgins on a pelican." HAAAA
Oh and I must admit...I have never know the lyrics to Go. I just blab along with whatever sounds right at the time.
It so wierd when you find out you've been singing something wrong. Especailly for years. It blows my mind. And sometimes its depressing.

My friend heard "All five versions of a pelican."
Quite a different song his way.
I thought the opening line was:
"The waiting trophy mat..." (like Ed was going to wrestle someone on a mat for a trophy.)
Now I know that it's really:
"The waiting drove me mad..."
"Don't call me Doris ... my beige old cat will remind me."
"Can't find the butter-man."
But he never really "listened" to the entire song very closely, otherwise he would have figured out the real lyrics. Funny, nonetheless.
I always thought it said something about a gun too, but I found out the right lyrics a couple of days ago, lol.

Well thats it for me but the lyrics to yellow ledbetter I still cant pick up cant pick up maybe I'll try harder cause it's a damn good song!
are you serious?? that's how the lyrics go??!! i was 100% sure it was "violins"....:)

Not like I didn't hear that part enough either.
I thought it said 'thinking man, we're all that saves.'
That kind of makes sense if you think about it, though.
What? I've always thought that Leash was "get out of my fucking face". I'll have to listen to that closer on the studio version, but I know I've heard him say "fucking face" on live versions.
Peace.
