Do you sing Pearl Jam lyrics wrong and KNOW they're wrong, but you still do it?

I'm always singing "Jeremy spoke in... Spokane..." cause it fits and the ever-present "Howie makes his getaway," which I infected many an old pit soul with years ago on the old board.

How about you guys?

    I know somebody who wasn't a real fan but would listen to it when I was. When I would play Black, they would walk around the rest of the day instead of singing "sheets of empty canvas"
    they would sing "she's so empty headed" so now I sing it that way sometimes for fun, lol.

    Well, english is not my mothertongue so I don't have to worry.

    I sing "Down, far from the wayside I'm gettin' out"

    and "gonna make you smile"

    When he was six, he believed that the moon overhead followed him
    By nine, he deciphered the illusion, trading magic for fact, no trade-backs
    So this is what it's like to be an adult?

    I always put in the extra "FUCKING" in Hail hail, like Ed does on the Live On Two Legs CD, its kind of a habit now.

    "how do i feel?, FUCKING how do i feel?..." Love that song so much.
    Situations get fucked up and turned around sooner or later...

    I'm not sure if this counts, but when I sing Outshined by Soundgarden I like to say "The grass is always greener where the dogs are shitting" instead of "The grass is always greener where the dogs are shedding" lol :P

    Even though I know it's wrong, sometimes I still catch myself singing "Can't find her vitamins" to 'Betterman'.
