Mis-Heard « Humor »

It's funny the things your mind will fill-in when you don't quite comprehend what your ears just heard.

For instance, I could have sworn the Bee Gees were singing about a "Bald-Headed Woman". And what did the Beatles think was songworthy about a "He's a Black Writer"?

You got any?

This one's apparently fairly common -- I was one of the many who thought Jimi Hendrix was singing (in "Purple Haze") "'Scuse me, while I kiss this guy."

There's a line from the song "Peace Sells, But Who's Buying" by Megadeth that says, "Whaddaya mean I don't support your system? I go to court when I have to."

For the longest time, I heard it as, "Whaddaya mean I don't support your sister? I go to court when I have to."

I still think about hunting snakes whenever I hear the Beach Boys' "Serpent Safari".

How 'bout Elton John's "Bennie and the Jets"? Swore for many years that "she's got electric boobs"...
