Everyone has had the experience.... Thinking the lyrics to a song say something very strange..... Wondering if you're the only person on the planet that doesn't quite understand these lyrics, until you find out the true lyrics later. Here are some of mine:
1. Bennie and the Jets, Elton John
ME: "she's got electric boobs, her ma does too,
you know I read it in a magazine...."
REALITY: "she's got electric boots, a mohair suit,
you know I read it in a magazine..."
2. Everybody Plays the Fool, Main Ingredient
When I was about 8, because of the music, I thought the song was, "Everybody plays the flute." But I thought it odd. I knew plenty of people that didn't play the flute. In fact, I didn't know anybody that played the flute.
3. Scar Tissue, Red Hot Chili Peppers
ME: "With bird shit it's a lonely view....."
REALITY: "with the bird I'll share this lonely view..."

It took me awhile to figure out that the Police were singing "how my poor heart aches" in 'Every Breath You Take'...for a long time I thought he was saying "I'm a pool-hall ace", which I thought must be sexual innuendo of the most strained variety.
