Michelle, my belle. Some day monkeys play piano songs. Play piano songs.
This thread was inspired by a Yeller Dog post. I was waxing poetic about enjoying the song "Saturday Night Special" by Lynrd Skynrd when Yeller hit me with "GOT A BARREL THAT'S SO BLUE AND GOLD", which is a line from the chorus. Except that it's supposed to be blue and cold. Which reminded me that mistaken lyrics can be good for a laugh. Here's a few:
Ain't got no love, NO LOVE YOU KO-REA
From "Runnin With The Devil" by Van Halen. It's supposed to be "no love you'd call real". A pretty tame one, but wait! They get better.
Big ol' Chet left the light on!
From "Jet Airliner" by Steve Miller. Supposed to be "big ol' jet airliner"
Sloooooow walkin walker, a fire engine guy
From "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple. Supposed to be "Smoooooke on the water, a fire in the sky"
What are some of your favorite mistaken lyrics?
And mods, I've put this in SO because even though everybody listens to music, not everybody frequents Music Discussion. I figured this would make for more and livelier conversation here. If that was dumb well then I am so fucking sorry and you could put it in MD instead if that's the way you wanna be about everyfuckingthing ever. Jeez...

What? Just because I don't sing along?
"Like a virgin,
Touched for the thirty-first time."
Until recently, I thought Radar Love was red hot lump.

The ants are my friends, as blowin' in the wind.
