Misheard lyrics

Here are some for me:

Manilla Road - Crystal Logic
Actual lyrics: I'm not burning, look inside
Misheard lyrics: I've got money, look inside

Overkill - Fast Junkie
Actual lyrics: My rubber rut steel, my tank
Misheard lyrics: My woman won't steal my tank

Vio-Lence - Serial Killer
Actual lyrics: My silent grave
Misheard lyrics: Watch as they pray

Haha! Great idea for a topic! I used to have a desk calendar with a different "misheard lyric" every day, it was tons o'fun. (Not enough metal songs in it though!)

Here's one for Seven Witches, "Metal Tyrant"
Actual lyric: He decapitates the night, resilient powers burning bright

Misheard lyric: He decapitates the night, Brazilian power burning bright...

I swear that's what I thought I heard when I first listened to the CD... and I still sing it that way today even though I know it's wrong.

This one's for all of you hardcore KISS fans.

'Let's Put the X in Sex' off the Smashes, Thrashes, and Hits album:

There's a line that goes "you're beggin' for an eyeful, but you'll only get a peek".

For quite some I thought the line was, "you're beggin' for apple, but you'll only get a peach". I guess that could still be used as some sort of innuendo lyrics...

Theres a website on this, people misinterpreting the lyrics

I remember only one at the moment.

Kreator - Command Of The Blade
Actual lyrics: Command of the blade
Misheard lyrics: The Mad Lobster blade

Vicious Rumors - Condemned
Actual lyrics: Condemned forever
Misheard lyrics: Condemned by madmen

I always thought it sounded like "condemned by Batman!"

Slayer - Angel of Death
Actual lyrics: Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Misheard lyrics: Mocking the kingdom of the dead

AHA, I knew there was a misheard lyric thread round here somewhere...

I was listening to Helloween's MASTER OF THE RINGS album just now, and remembererd that when I first heard the tune "Perfect Gentleman," I thought the line "I am the genuine man" sounded like "I am the John Wayne man," haha!

Andi's accent can be pretty thick at times so I suppose it's an honest mistake.

testament: "legions in hiding"
actual lyric: ah, the torment spreads
misheard lyrics: ah, the chocolate express

I kmow this isn't metal, but when we were little kids, like 8-9 years old, my sister thought that Steve Miller's Jet Airliner said:
"Bingo Jed had a light on" instead of "Big ol' jet airliner"

You've probably seen this before but I still think it's hilarious.

I always thought this band was saying "wrapped up like a douche" LOL

A lot of people still think that!!

Going even further, I used to think the full lyric was "Wrapped up like a douche and get a boner every night"

I'm still convinced he's saying douche. Noone will tell me otherwise. Ever.

My wife thought Mortification were barking out "POT ROAST!" in The Majestic Infilatration of Order. The actual lyrics are "GOD RULES!"

Many people mistake the lyrics on "Big Ten Inch Record" by Aerosmith. People often think Tyler is saying "...Suck on my big ten inch" when in fact he is saying "...'cept on my big ten inch".

my girl don't go for smokin'
and liquor just make her flinch
seems she don't go for nothin'
'cept for my big 10 inch

Pot Roast is METAL. Mmmmm. Pot Roast.

Pretty much enters my mind every time I hear the song.

Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze

Actual
'SCUSE ME WHILE I KISS THE SKY

What I heard

'Scuse me while I kiss this guy

Razor - Edge of the Razor

Actual lyrics: Stand and fight for it
Misheard lyrics: Stay away from me

Nirvana

To be honest, I have no idea what Kurt said half the time.

Oh, that's easy. All KC said was: fhbnfhnfhnfjigiogp;gjikopkiop[d;[pkoffoprkgjer0ogkt

Blackened - Metallica


My best friend in the 7th grade thought the line "Color our world blackened" was actually "Come On - We're Blackened".

AC/DC- Highway To Hell

Actualy lyrics: Hey Satan, payin my dues.
and this is what I thought it said when I was a kid: Hey Satan, hey now Jews.
