Topic: Your own mondegreens

We all know the popular ones "Scuse me while I kiss this guy" and "There's a bathroom on the right". Are there any that only you got?

Proud Mary- CCR
"Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a real bug"
(Rollin' on a river)

Jet Airliner- Steve Miller Band
"Big Hotel Carolina, don't carry me to far away".
(Big old jet airliner)

I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night
"Wake of the dog, waking the dog"
(Then came the dawn, and then you were gone)

Interesting topic.
The one that springs to mind right away is also from the same Steve Miller Band song:
"Big old jet had a light on ..."
=)
A couple others that i can think of are not even close to being appropriate to post, including one for AC/DC's "Highway to Hell" that Artie Lange mentioned on Stern's show one day, and one for Manfred Mann's "Blinded by the Light".

Incense and Peppermints

Good sense, innocence, kripum and kind
Dead kings, many things I can't define
Old kegs and firesweat flutter your mind
Good sense, innocence, the color of thyme

Who cares what games we choose?
Little to win, but nothing to lose

Toodle by the cockeyed world in two
Throw it by the oneside, it's the least you can do
Beat Nixon politics, nothing is new
A yardstick for lunatics, one point of view

And yet another one: I used to hear it as "Big Al turnin' the light on."

Who'll Stop the Rain- CCR

"Five year plans and new deals wrapped in goats and chains"
(golden chains)

House of the Rising Sun- Animals

"My mother was a trailer, sold my new blue jeans"
(My mother was a tailor, sewed my new blue jeans)

I can't think of one for myself but my brother used to think...

"IT'S A BRICK....OW!"
(She's a Brick House)

"We all love lazer maims" instead of "We love Liza James".

BOAT! RUDDER! STRANGE MOUNTAIN!

Just look up interpretation videos by Paranoidave on youtube
They're hilarious

And I used to think 'tallica's "It ain't my bitch-ah!" was "It ain't my bedtime"

Cool thread!
Two i can think of right now.

The Unforgiven by Metallica
original line: he's battled constantly
understood: these Battletoads did win

Scorpions: The Rhythm of Love mistaken for "The River Montblanc" - Back in my childhood times i was totally sure that it wasn't a mountain.

The Unforgiven trilogy by Metallica, dedicated in memory of those Battletoads

Also anyone think the line "Im a dirt torpedo" in High Speed Dirt by Megadeth sounds like "I'm a dirty paedo"?

Or is it just me....

When I was younger the in the song Venus theres the line

I'm your Venus I'm your fire.

Well I though it was I'm your (insert name of boy parts here) I'm your fire

You can image the look on my moms face when a six year old is running around the house singing it that way. I still cant listen to that song to this day without laughing about that.

@Rocketship
No, Dave seems to enunciate "dirt torpedo" pretty well. Oh and btw, you avatar and sig are amazing, you're my new favorite NL user

Not quite a mondegreen, but whenever I right click on the task bar in Windows and see the option "Lock the taskbar" I always read it in my head to the tune of "Rock the Casbah" and now whenever I hear the song "Rock the Casbah" I replace the appropriate line in my head with "Lock the taskbar".

And now forever, you will do the same.

I've only joined up two days and I'm already someone's favourite user, success! So Metallica fan? I just seen them again at Sonisphere UK, my fourth time, epic as usual! (I'm aware this is off topic-ish lol)

Last time I saw them was back in the late 90's. Every time they come to my area I never have the money. . And I would say I am a Metallica fan I never played nor owned a guitar hero game but I had to buy the Metallica one just because it was Metallica lol.

I played GH Metallica for like 170 hours

Damn you. I totally will now.

"We're going down down, with an alien hound" instead of "in An earlier round." By fall out boy.

Yeah, I racked up some serious hours oh GH: Metallica, and went through a few instruments in the process, totally worth it!
