Fun: Misheard GN'R lyrics!

[Reinaldo]

"That keep you up and seating pretty on a pedestal of man"

TWAT

[Wooody]

I was only a small child when the coppers came to me instead of '' the thought first came to me"

Dead horse

[Uzi76]

I thought "you can take the pity so far" from You Could Be Mine was "you can take the biggest sofa"

Oops.

This one is hilarious 
Almost as good as 'I used to love her, but i had tequila'.

Funny tread.

Okay, here are my ones:
Paradise City: 'To be a rebel take me back to the start' instead of 'turn me around and take me back to the start'
Jungle: 'You got to hang out to what you see' instead of 'If you got a hunger for what you see'.
Breakdown: Just because you're women don't mean you're the lucky ones' instead of 'just because you're winning don't mean you're the lucky ones (same as someone else mentioned before)

I am sure there were a couple more, but I can't remember them right now

[pilferk]

Paradise City: Instead of "Captain America's been torn apart" "Captain America and Joan of Ark"

In IRS: Instead of "with a sweet hangover and the headlines, too"...."with a sweet hangover and your head lice too". (alternately "and with your head lights, too".

[pilferk]

I've just discovered one that this thread made me check and low and behold I've been mishearing the lyric up until now. 

I'd be really surprised if no one else has been thinking this lyric is what I thought it was as well, we will see.

I have been thinking for the last few years that the line in Yesterdays goes like this.

Grand in my pocket, and no hand in destiny.

When it's actually

Prayers in my pocket, and no hand in destiny.

 


Lee

See, I thought it was a double metaphor:

HANDS in my pocket, and no hand in destiny.

I always thought it was grand in my pocket.. no hand in destiny.. like he was already rich but still couldnt get things to work out .

I thought "you can take the pity so far" from You Could Be Mine was "you can take the biggest sofa"

Oops.

I thought it was "you can take the bed and sofa"

That last part of YCBM was brutal to hear correctly before seeing the lyrics.

[aussiegunner]

 

Reading these I laughed so hard, I could relate to so many of the misheard songwords... Classic!

[Uzi76]

A good one from my wife:

Better: instead of ' I never wanted you to be someone afraid to know themselves' she thought it was 'I never wanted you to be someone who is afraid to kill themselves'

(she listens to a lot of NIN  )

[Insider]

"Coma"
Misheard Lyrics:
Both my father and father are gay
It's a miracle how long I've been straight.
Original Lyrics:
Slippin' farther and farther away
It's a miracle how long we can stay.


i can't stop laughin' at this

[Lucky]

Dead Horse

some might say that our love was a tadpole
thats slowly develping into a frog
ill be crying
i guess some things never change

lol. I was just listening to it and that lyrics came up when I read your post

[Finckism]

i can't stop laughin' at this

i'm crying dude. i can't stop laughing

[The Illusionist]

Yesterdays.

I'm pretty sure that I can hear Axl sing: I ain't got time to reminisce on novel teens!

But the sheet music says: I ain't got time to reminisce Old Novelties.

What does Old Novelties mean? 

He's probably artistically creating an oxymoron while using "novelties" as it's other meaning of something novel that may be striking, original, or unusual. Then again, who knows what he means. lol

[sandman83]

Funny shit....so many I can relate to!   One that comes to my mind is Nightrain, Instead of: Well, I got one chance left In a nine live cat.....I would think it was: Well, I got one chance left In a night live crowd

[DuffRock]

I never used to take much notice of the titles to tracks...

thought "right next door to hell" said "rednecks go to hell" 

[Jdog0830]

Lol I like that one!

[Jeramy]

"you know i don't like being stuck in the ground"

patience 

[bwhalen]

You could be mine "When your bitch starts rappin and your cocaines gone." Instead of "with your bitch slap rappin and your cocaine tongue."
My sisters x actually pointed out that the line is on the back of appetite.
 
One in a million "start something real red or spread some fucking disease" instead of "start something mini iran and spread some fucking disease."
real red haha love that one!!

[Guifris]

My turn!

Some of these are hilarious. I often heard Rednecks go to hell instead of Right Next Door to Hell.

I used to love her but I had tequila really cracks me up tho
hahaha
