As in, not "45 virgins and a pelican" and such crazy examples.
Here are three that took me some time to realize were wrong:
Clash - Know Your Rights
This is a Public Service Announcement, Wichita!"
(as in making the PSA be targeted for a specific american city)
(real one: This is a Public Service Announcement - with Guitar!"
Neil Young - Needle and the Damage Done
But every junkie likes to sit in the sun
(as in no matter how down on your luck you are you are still a human like every one else)
(real one: But every Junkie's like a setting sun)
Pearl jam - Grievance
Pull the innocent from a crowd, Raise the stakes then bring 'em down
(as in using ones overwhelming power advantage (government etc) to push people down and keeping them down. Like the chipleader in a pokergame can do)
(real one: Pull the innocent from a crowd, Raise the sticks then bring 'em down)
