Mangled Lyrics

This funny thing that happened just last night COMBINED with the "So Far Away....Yelling" thread inspired me to start a new thread....
Last night in the car my eight year old son requested Domino (that and Slave Girl are his absolute favorites.) While I was cueing it up on the CD player he says, "Mom, did the Goo Goo Dolls ever live in Australia?" I told him no, but that they've toured there. When I asked him why, he said, "because in Domino they say they love the dingoes." Naturally, I didn't know what the heck he was talking about, so I asked him to tell me the part of the song that talks about these 'dingoes." (dingos?) He says, "In the part where Robby and John sing together, at the end Robby goes, 'I love the dingoes!'" Once I got done LMAO, I told him that Robby was saying "Another day goes!" I don't know if I'll ever be able to listen to that song again without singing "I love the dingoes!"
Any other mangled lyrics out there?

OMG!  That is just too funny. Your son sounds way cute.
I posted about this before, but there's a line in...actually it's 'So Far Away' (what a confusing song that is, lol) where it always sounded to me like John was singing "I hate your rabbits too". Then I discovered the lyrics were "I hate your attitude".
There were some pretty funny ones posted a while back from a site about misheard lyrics...the one I will never forget was "Touch me now and I won't care, when you take my underwear" from Long Way Down.
Someone else misheard the line in January Friend "Every single heart that beats" as "Every single hunk of beef" WTF? Hahahaha!

Any way in GALB where John sings"....I'll give a little bit of my life to you....."
The first time i heard that it sounded like he said
"....I'll give a little bit of my LIME to you....."

Apparently some people misheard the line "Give a little bit of your time to me" as "Give a little bit of your TONGUE to me..."
Can you say wishful thinking?

Goo Goo Dolls', "Slide"
The funny Lyrics:
Put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
And what you are is beautiful
Why They're funny:
Hee hee...Johnny's calling himself beautiful. Her arms are around him, and she feels him. If she feels what she is, and she's beautiful, then she's feeling beauty, and she's feeling Johnny. Narcissist.

Found that at AmIRight.com
I really think they got the name for the site from AmIGone!!!
That's one funny site!!!

Hahaha...I never thought of it that way!
This made me laugh:
"What a Scene"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
Na na na-na-na na
Na-na-na-na na-na na nana na na na nana na na....
Why They're Repetitive:
This song is really cool, but they repeat that at least 11 times. Lets see, multiply 17 by 11... oh god!!!! 127 !?! how could Robby stand repeating one thing over 100 times in one song?! I mean sure Johnny's the frontman but god!!! Robby stand up for yourself!! You used to be the frontman and you're a year older than him, that should be no problem!!!
Especially since Robby once threw John down a flight of stairs...apparently!
