Message: Misheard lyrics are always good for a giggle and sometimes even better than the original!

How about...
UB40: 'I'm a green banana, ripening in the sun' instead of: 'I'm a prima donna'

Jimmy Cliff: 'I can see Claire now Lorraine has gone' instead of: 'I can see clearly now the rain is gone'

Destiny's Child: 'Lemonade lemonade' instead of: 'Say my name, say my name'

Frank Sinatra: 'Strangers in the Nile' instead of: 'Strangers in the night'

Post your clangers here.....

Message: Sorry it's taken me a few days to find what the title of this song was.
Do you know Sidewinder sleeps tonite by REM?
Well the line "Come on in try to wake her up" is sung so fast that I could never decipher it - all I could get was "Callin'........up" Totally wrong and always a mystery to me until I heard a DJ giving out the real words one day!

Message: I know this was posted a while ago and usually I stick to the movies section of the board, but I just thought of one and I couldn't resist: when we were about 15 my friend and I got right into Jimi Hendrix (still love him) and we thought the lyrics to this song were "excuse me while I kiss this guy"!! Teenage girls, huh?

Message: This one goes back to my teenage years. A friend of mine used to sing along to the stone roses. I'm not sure of the song title but the lyrics:

He sang " i wanna be a door" stone roses " i wanna be adored" used to keep me amused anyway.
