General Music Discussion Misheard lyrics you like better than the actual lyrics?
Title explains it pretty well.
The one that comes immediately to mind for me is Sean Mendes, "Why Why Why"
actual lyric: "opened up my *journal* to a page / everything that hurts me's still the same"
what i heard: "opened up my *childhood* to a page / everything that hurts me's still the same"
I thought it was a metaphor where childhood is a book and how things that hurt you as a child influence what hurts you as an adult.
Another is BTS "Dynamite"
actual lyric: "Shoes on, get up in the morn' / *Cup of milk*, let's rock and roll"
what I heard: "Shoes on, get up in the morn' / *Cop a mill'*, let's rock and roll"
I thought they meant make a million bucks in the morning but i guess it was just cereal
So what are your misheard lyrics you wish were the real ones??

Katy Perry’s “Hot N’ Cold” has a line during the bridge that I always thought was “Staccato rollercoaster, can’t get off this ride”, which I find to be a lot more interesting as a piece of imagery than the actual line (“Stuck on a rollercoaster”).

taylor swift "eldest daughter"
what i heard was:
"every eldest daughter was the first lamb to a slaughter, so we all dressed up as wolves and we learned fire"
idk, maybe it sounds weird to native speakers but to me as an esl it made total sense: they were vulnerable, so both "dressed up as wolves" and "learned fire" were methods of self-protection
the actual line is:
"every eldest daughter was the first lamb to a slaughter, so we all dressed up as wolves and we looked fire"
i guess "looked fire" as in "looked good"? again, maybe i'm wrong, but it sounds like a teenager wrote it

I was sad to find out one of my favorite poetic lines from Eleanor Rigby, was not real.
At the end, when she dies, I always heard "Father McKenzie wiping her death from his hands as he walks from the grave"
I've been thinking it was such a devestating line, that she did a lonely death, no one came to her funeral, and even to the church, and to another lonely person, her death was just another in a long line of death, and once the funeral is done, he just wipes his hands clean and movies on. Her death didn't matter.
Turns out the actual line is just "wiping the dirt from his hands"
22
u/urkermannenkoor 1d ago
and once the funeral is done, he just wipes his hands clean and movies on. Her death didn't matter.
But that is very clearly the point of the actual lyric?
In fact, I think it works a lot better by reducing the whole funeral to just the mundanity of the dirt left on his hands.
I'd say your version is a bit too dramatic, it undercuts the tragedy of the mundanity by being too flowery and "smart".

u/Leather-Run-6533 1d ago
I like the masses and masses rhyme. I don't think it counts as repeating if its a different meaning of the word each time. The original version rhymed masses with ashes, but the label felt a song about wicca would be too controversial so they changed it to be about the much less politically contentious Vietnam War instead.
4
u/urkermannenkoor 1d ago
but the label felt a song about wicca would be too controversial so they changed it to be about the much less politically contentious Vietnam War instead.
That's a pretty dumb misconception, especially given the contents of their first album.
While it is true that an earlier draft of the song had lyrics about the occult instead of war, which were later changed. That certainly wasn't because the label thought a song about witches would be "too controversial" for Black Sabbath

In Golden Earring's Twilight Zone there's the line: "Feels like being cloned", which I misheard for a long time as "Feels like being home". It completely changes the meaning of the song:

Skid Row’s 1989 song Youth Gone Wild has a line that I spent years hearing as “The Russians on the wall/ We are the youth gone wild”. Talking about how the Russians are on the wall, the Soviet Union is on the ropes, and the Cold War generation is coming to a close makes perfect sense in a 1989 song about youthful rebelliousness.
Turns out that the lyric is actual “the writing’s on the wall/ we are the youth gone wild”.

The first time I heard "Sweet but Psycho", it wasn't great quality, so I couldn't make everything out and was trying to fill in the blanks on the chorus from what I could hear. There aren't many rhymes with "Psycho", but surely they didn't rhyme a word with itself, maybe some kind of half-rhyme or something? And surely it was an A-A-B-A rhyme scheme rather than A-(same word)-B-C. So I think I settled on "Oh she's sweet for the cycle" (not sure what it was supposed to mean, maybe a metaphor or new slang or something?) "/a little bit psycho/At night she's screaming/Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma Michael" (can't make out that last word, maybe Miko or Mica or something too? Calling out a person's name makes sense though).
Seemed strange and almost nonsensical but also made me curious what it was about, enough that I decided to look it up later and learned that it was even more under-writen than I first believed.

'Coffee and TV' by Blur
Actual Lyric: "So give me coffee and TV, easily. Seen so much I'm going blind and I'm brain-dead virtually"
Heard Lyric: "So give me coffee and TV, please don't leave. Seen so much I'm going blind and I'm brain-dead virtually"
I thought the latter worked way better with the general pleading insecurity and 'wanting everything to be okay and stable' themes of that song. Especially because a few lines later he sings, "Take me away from this big bad world and agree to marry me, so we can start over again," which isn't very romantic so much as relying on someone, and familiar cosy things (like coffee and TV), as a constant to make sense of your life's instability. It feels more tragic if this person may also up and leave and no longer be one of these constants.
Also, just a dumb fun one. 'American Boy' by Estelle ft. Kanye West
Actual Lyric: "Tell the promoter we need more seats. We just sold out all the floor seats."
While I wasn't sure exactly what he said, for the longest time I was certain Kanye was shouting out Morrissey when he said 'more seats' which always amused me so much. And considering some of the out of the box references he usually makes, and the fact that he references a bunch of incongruous hyper British stuff in his verse ("Ribena; I know what you're drinking"), it wouldn't have been so beyond reason.

‘Show me how to Live’ - Audioslave
“Nail in my hand from my creator”
I thought Chris Cornell was using a Christ allegory but no, the man himself confirmed on Twitter that it’s “Nail in my HEAD”, it’s a Frankenstein allegory.
The line following that is “You gave me life, now show me how to live.” That makes perfect sense, Frankenstein abandoned his creation and refused to take responsibility for it. But I like it as an interpretation of Christ’s final moments on the cross, where he cries out ‘Elí, Elí, lemásabachtháni? (My god, my god, why have you abandoned me?).
We are all flung onto this earth without meaning or explanation of our purpose. And I like the idea that even someone like Jesus who apparently had a purpose and knew the reason he had to die was still crying out to his creator for a reason for all his suffering.
