What did he say? Misunderstood lyrics.


My wife bought a calander with misunderstood song lyrics. The name of the calander is "'scuse me while I kiss this guy" from Jimi Hendrix. I remember hearing this while I was young and wondering what Jimi was singing about. All of the other ones I've read so far are really lame. So I'm wonder what your personal misunderstood lyric is.
I can't think of anything for myself so I'll do one of my wife's
Wrong lyric: "Only the lonely get laid." from The Motels
Correct lyric is: "Only the lonely can play."

Alright lets hear 'em!

Great story formulaone! It's fun to see the history of how music and language get distorted across the span of years.
That said, "pompatus" is actually a word (Latin, to be sure) meaning something like "splendor".
Rzado: It's at the 4 minute, 22 seconds mark.

R. Plant: "She's smhfteumsnethbtoso 'o"
"She saw the back of my door"
