Misheard Lyrics Story:

"I Ain't Gonna Stand For It"
Misheard Lyrics: I ain't goin' to Stanford, baby.
Original Lyrics: I ain't gonna stand for it, babe.
|
Story about this misheard lyric by: Tom Regner I have this song by two different artists. While listening to them back to back one day (while doing housework), I found myself singing, 'I ain't goin' to Stanford, Baby!' out loud. I thought, 'That can't be right.' Listening more closely, I found my error, but it was one of those songs that to me was more about the way it sounds than what it says. |

Funny Lyrics:
"I Was Made To Love Her"
The Funny Lyrics: I was made to love her,
worship and adore her, hey, hey, hey. Why They're Funny: This is funny because the title line is ambiguous. I suppose it is meant to say "i was made (i.E. created) for the purpose of loving her. but the title line by itself could just as easily mean "i was forced to love her". as chance would have it, I've always tended to hear it the latter way, and think he's saying that he was coerced into loving her, before I catch myself and think, oh but that isn't what the song means to say.

Misrhymed Lyrics:
"I Just Called To Say I Love You"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: I just called to say 'I love you'
I just called to say how much I care I just called to say 'I love you' And I mean it from the bottom of my heart. Why They're Misrhymed: I know Mr. Wonder can rhyme better than that. It sounds like he's not even trying.

Inappropriate Lyrics:
"As"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4.
Why They're Inappropriate: I'm sorry, the rest of the song sounds good it's just that this line doesn't really sound appropriate in the song. He keeps saying how he'll love her until the world ends and the mountains crumble and the sun dies and then he has to say something about math. I'm sorry I'm not trying to insult Stevie's song writing ability it's just that this sounds like something I would write (which is never a good thing!)

Dirty Lyrics:
"My Love Is On Fire"
The Dirty Lyrics: I want to feel your love
I need to feel your love mixed with mine Why They're Dirty: Maybe I'm miscontruing the context here but the last line especially is so disturbing it made me nauseous thinking about it - because standalone and stripped of that particular potential connotation, it doesn't make any sense. Can we say 'too much information'? Especially from Mr. Wonder, I'm surprised.

The Lyrics: There ain't no reason to force a smile, when pain is really in its place. 'Cause we know the truth, it ain't no use, let's part before we lose love's trace.
