Misheard Lyrics Story:

"Bark At The Moon"
Misheard Lyrics:
F*** the Pope.
or
F*** the mole.
Original Lyrics:
Bark at the moon.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Craig Alexander

This song is on the soundtrack to a game called GTA: Vice City. The mondegreen is due to the various in-game sound effects layered over the radio (cars revving, gun shots, quips from the main character). Furthermore, Ozzy Osbourne barely says 'at the', and his pronunciation of 'moon' is more like 'moan'. On the antiquated soundtrack, 'Bark At The Moon' quickly became one of my favourites. So I would listen to it at every opportunity, usually singing along with my own version of the lyrics. My brother heard me, and after correcting me, asked me why I didn't think it was odd that it was called 'Bark At The Moon'. But those lyrics weren't included in my version. He then revealed the rest of the lyric to me, which was even funnier. Substituting my mondegreen for the real lyrics, the end result is 'listen in awe and you'll hear him, f*** the Pope'!

Songs That Are Banned:

"Suicide Solution"
Not a direct ban, but because of the aforementioned events surrounding the tune, much of Ozzy's music was pulled from rotation from several radio stations during the time period, 1985 to 1987. In 1985, the parents of John McCullom sue Ozzy Osbourne, claiming that this song "aided, or advised, or encouraged" their son to commit suicide. In 1987, the judge in the case decides that overt lyrics are protected speech and that the evidence is insufficient to connect the song to the suicide.

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):

"His Potty Mouth"
Ozzy is also known for his potty mouth. In his reality show The Osbournes there were more bleeps than any other show in MTV's history. And people now know where Kelly and Jack get their potty mouths.
Submitted by: Celeste
"Biting Off The Head Of A Bat"
This reportedly happened during a concert in Des Moines, Iowa on January 20, 1982. A concert goer threw the bat on stage. Thinking it was a toy bat, Ozzy then proceeded to bite off its head, then threw the headless carcass back at the audience. He had to have rabies and tetanus shots.
