Top 5 Misheard Lyrics
Written by Jimmy
From the Sunday Times – I found funny – top 5 misheard lyrics of all time. Of course, we welcome additions.
- “Excuse me while I kiss this guy.” (“Excuse me while I kiss the sky,” from Purple Haze, Jimi Hendrix.
- “There’s a bathroom on the right.” (“There’s a bad moon on the rise”, Bad Moon Rising, Creedence Clearwater Revival. Oh, and don’t forget ‘”CR blarin’ from my brothers van”, Major Matt Mason, Saturday Morning Canasta Club)
- “dead ants are my friends, they’re blowin’ in the wind.” (“The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind”, Blowin’ in the Wind, Bob Dylan)
- “Are you going to starve an old friend?” (“Are you going to Scarborough Fair?” (Scarborough Fair, Simon and Garfunkel)
- “I’m a pool hall ace.”(“How my poor heart aches”, Every Breath you Take, The Police)
Pretty funny, although I don’t know a soul who thought that Dylan was singing about his best friend, the Ant.

haha thats hilarious, I always thought “Praise You” by Fat Boy Slim, went “I have to praise you like a shoe..” listen to it.
Oh and also that Saturdays song, Issues, it sounds like “don’t know if I should stab you or kiss you”, instead of slap, haha. People should really enunciate.
