You know how sometimes we really get in to the mood and start singing our jam but we actually have no idea how ridiculous the lyrics sound, because we forgot to take that trip to metrolyrics? Uh huh, do not nod your head now; I know we have all been there. Yours truly felt that there needs to be an article about the most bizarrely misheard lyrics because she needs to make herself feel better for singing “parrot dies” instead of “paradise”.
Here goes!
• R.E.M. ‘Losing My Religion’
“That’s me in the corner, that’s me in the spotlight” are the lyrics written by someone we are used to calling the wordsmith. However, a lot of people thought that the song was probably inspired by a toilet emergency as they heard “Let’s pee in the corner. Let’s pee in the spotlight”.
• Aretha Franklin ‘(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman’ People kept wondering why the queen of soul and the winner of 18 grammies kept singing about being “a rash on a woman”.
• Whitney Houston ‘Saving All My Love For You’
Or is it “shaving of my muff for you”?
• Jefferson Starship “We built this city on Rock N’ Roll”
The band members who sang this iconic must have been missed breakfast the day they wrote this song because we are still not sure if it is “Rock N’ Roll” or “Sausage Rolls”.
• Ed Sheeran “Take me in to your loving arms”
You sure it is not “Take me into your lemon arms”?
• Taylor Swift “Blank Space” (Got a long list of ex lovers)
Yours truly is scratching her head because she is trying to figure out if one of TayTay’s best song is actually an advertisement for Starbucks. Why? Just play the song and tell me you do not hear “Got a lot of Starbucks lovers” somewhere!
• Ariana Grande “Break Free” (Thought of your body, I came alive)
Damn, our petite pop star with the powerhouse vocals and signature sky-high ponytail might have had some real spicy tacos and a bad stomach situation one night, to sing about she “Fart on your body and came alive”.
• Katy Perry “Birthday” (Make it like your birthday everyday)
The singer of “Roar” sure has some weird fetishes since she sings stuff like “I’ll give you a taste, make you lick your buttcrack everyday”.
