OMG I have done that more than ounce LOL.

Absofreakinloutely baby, yeah! So does this guy. I almost peed the first time I saw this. That’s how hard I laughed.

@MorenoMelissa1 i’ll weight for you to edit your response ;¬}

@ucme What? due eye haf to mispill stuf two git ur atehchun? Czech thuh leenk.

I do this quite a bit, but it’s usually me goofing on lyrics that I do understand. A good example is a song by Youth of Today called “thinking straight” which is about living drug free/staying sober etc. I always sing along to it but change the lyrics to “drinking’s great”.

YEP! and i’m proud of it! ha ha

When I sing along with “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” I make up everything except “Jumpin’ Jack Flash is a gas, gas gas!” The rest of it is, like, dun nun nuhhhh, duh nuh nuhhhh nuhhhh nuhhhh nuh….

I usually change things so they’re obscene or random (e.g. Instead of “I kissed a girl” it’s “I kicked a squirrel”)

@Trillian I was getting round to you dinna fret. First come first served & all that.Funny shit I never peed though.

I used to get my daughter really angry just changing the words to her music. She liked a Will Smith song that went; “gettin’ jiggy with it” and I would say “Chicken chicken little”. Her little ears would turn all pink and she’d holler “That’s not the words!”

lol yes i do. But dont you hate when you hear other people do it. lol

Of course and even more fun is to rewrite the verses in my head as I would like.

Yeah yeah!!
Substitute the road signs for the lyrics!! “Exit three six/forty-one Mad/ison Street/James Street/dowun town/ Exit only/ Olive Denny/ love you baby/yes I do”.

Some songs I never could hear right. One goes “blinded by the light, wrapped up…something… in the night” I have no idea. Like a…wrapped up like a… what?

I loved the sound of Nirvana’s Teen Spirit, but there are large parts where I have absolutely no idea what he is saying.

Too. Many. LOLs. Text talk overload. Need. Quality writing. Beep boop beep

Also in Billy Jean: “The chair is not my friend”???

Yes. And I’ve been laughed at plenty about this.

Lol…who doesn’t?

I even make up my own songs to tunes and sing them to my animals. hahahaha

I have a goose that just loves me to play my djembe to Shaggys ‘angel’ and impose his name! Okay….thats more than enough about me and my quirks. lolol

Sometimes? Making up the words is the only way to sing.

@escapedone7 The lyrics are, “Wrapped up like a dusche.” Not even kidding!

It’s like in Queen’s Bo Rap,just who the fuck is Miss Miller anyway & why won’t she let him go.

This kind of question always reminds me of a skit that aired on SNL about 20+ years ago, and though I can’t find a link to video, I do have a link to the transcript.

Also reminds me of “mondegreens” – misheard lyrics where a different word is substituted for the actual word, completely changing the meaning of the lyrics. A guy by the name of Gavid Edwards compiled 4 books full of these.

”‘Scuse Me While I Kiss This Guy”
“He’s Got the Whole World in His Pants”
“When a Man Loves a Walnut”, and
“Deck the Halls with Buddy Holly.”

A couple of my favorites from my personal life…the first time I heard my wife sing along to the aforementioned Beatles’ “I Wanna Hold Your Hand,” I had to tell her that the lyrics are “I can’t hide,” not “I get high.” She is however in good company, it’s said that Bob Dylan offered the Beatles marijuana for the first time and was shocked to find they’d never tried it, because he too thought they said “I get high.”

Then there’s the Gorillaz song “Dare”, where to this day, even though I know the lyrics are “You’ve got to press it on you,” I still sing, “You’ve got a breadstick on you.”

Then there’s on other song, a little more obscure….A Canadian hard rock band called Danko Jones has a song called “The Cross”, where the refrain is “Nail you to the cross.” One day I was listening to that on my MP3 player, I was tired and starting to nod off, and I could have sworn I heard, “mail you to LaCrosse.” Not sure which would be the worse threat.

@rentluva5256 – I think the real lyrics are “revved up like a deuce”, though it does sound like “wrapped up like a douche.” Another thing I recall some comedy sketch show did, can’t remember, it might have been The State if memory serves, there was a poker game and 4 guys were arguing about the lyrics to the song, each one had a more ridiculous idea than the other, and I think the clencher was the guy who thought it was “held up like a loofah by the foreman of the night.”

@dalepetrie, as great as “help up like a loofah” sounds, i looked it up and it’s “wrapped up like a douche.”

@rentluva5256 – I hope you’re kidding, and to put it to rest, I looked it up too. Here’s what wikipedia says about Manfred Mann’s cover of this Bruce Springsteen penned song,

“The song is notable for lead vocalist Chris Thompson’s garbled enunciation, especially of the phrase “revved up like a deuce” which has led many fans to interpret it as “wrapped up like a douche”. The original Springsteen lyric is neither of the above, instead being “cut loose like a deuce”.”

Manfred man sang “revved up like a deuce,” Bruce Springsteen sang “cut loose like a deuce,” and the rest of the world heard “wrapped up like a douche.”

There there’s this which is the sketch I mentioned above about the guys playing poker and arguing about the lyrics. It was indeed on a show called The State, but the comedy troupe was called The Vacant Lot, they had a show in Canada before it was aired on MTV as “The State”, which is why I couldn’t find this link originally as this video is credited on YouTube to Vacant Lot, whereas it appears anything referencing the State was removed for copyright reasons when the DVD release came out. Enjoy.

@dalepetrie Ha ha! That’s kind of funny. Ok that clears up one mystery for me. Thanks.

Yes, and YES! I totally do!!!

All the time.

Yes, and often it makes the song more enjoyable. When I don’t know all the lyrics to a song, I tend to enjoy the song more. I don’t know why this is so but it’s true. When I finally know all the words to a song, the song doesn’t seem as novel or fresh to me.

@dalepetrie Then never mind! My bad. :)

@rentluva5256 – no problem ;)
