Mis-heard song lyrics
Discussion
2 I used to mis-hear.
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody:
"Is this the real life? Is this just Battersea?"
And Living in a Box - Living in a Box:
"I'm living in a butt, living in a cardboard butt"
I remember me and my father arguing over the living in a box lyrics. I (as a 5 year old) refused to believe my father knew the correct lyrics.

As a teenager, I used to work in a local recording studio helping out the sound engineer. Recording a track with a local covers band one day, all that was needed to finish the song was the vocals. The singer goes into the studio, we start the track and the guy starts singing. Everything is going well until the chorus when we realise there's something wrong. Looks of disbelief turn to complete hysterics amongst the amassed band and engineers and we repeatedly hear the vocalist sing:
"Come all without, come all within, you'll not see nothing like the mighty QUIM"
I have to say that it still raises a smile when I hear the song on the radio.

Coldplay - Paradise
Always thought that sounded a lot like:

para-para-parrot dies para-para-parrot dies para-para-parrot dies
every time she closed her eyes...
Shared it with OH, adding, what a sick song to have on the radio...
She goes and shares it of FB disgusted!
WIN!

there used to be a whole website of this called:
"The ants are my friends" ......is blowing in the wind, it shut down a few years back, such a shame.
"its all right babys come in bags " was one of my favourites
Just found there is a book :

My son however phoned a local radio station when aged about 8 to ask for the song by M people about the Porsche when asked how it went he sang live on air:
"one 911 one 911" he got sent a prize!
