Ok so in this thread, let's share some of our favorite misheard song lyrics. Put in the name of the song, the misheard lyrics, and the actual lyrics (if you know them or feel like looking them up), and if you want, a link to the song. You can use lyrics from any song you want, LBT or otherwise (I don't know that there are enough misheard LBT lyrics to warrant starting a separate thread for that).

To start us off, I'm going to do a hilarious misheard line from a rather obscure John Denver song that I think deserves much more love.

Song: Dancing With The Mountains by John Denver
Misheard lyrics: "My partners come in pieces for my friends"
Actual lyrics: "My partner's more than pieces, more than friends"

Honestly, neither of those make all that much sense in the context of the song!  :lol  :lol

Here's one that's actually become an inside joke in my family. It doesn't seem to be what most people hear, but it's what my mother and I hear.

Song: Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
Misheard lyrics: "Here we are now, mashed potatoes"
Actual lyrics: "Here we are now, entertain us"
