Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Axella Johannesson

Misheard lyrics (also called mondegreens) occur when people misunderstand the lyrics in a song. These are NOT intentional rephrasing of lyrics, which is called parody. For more information about the misheard lyrics available on this site, please read our FAQ.

This page contains a list of the songs that have stories about their misheard lyrics submitted.

Song names are sorted by first letter, excluding A and The. This is sorted by song title only, not by song title and performer. So if two different performers preformed the same song, you'll see misheard lyrics for both on the same page (provided the song title was spelt the same both times, and misheard lyrics have been submitted for both!).

The Misheard Lyrics:
While you lean on that butter knife
The Real Lyrics:
While you lean on that bar tonight
The Story: I was singing along with it at my friend's house one night. My friend burst out laughing and told me what the real words were. I guess no one really leans on a butter knife. - Submitted by: Nendo

Why you lead on that barter night?
The Real Lyrics:
While you lean on that bar tonight
The Story: Being tops at a barter night didn't make sense. Now I know why. And I don't even know if there is a such thing as a barter night anyway. - Submitted by: Bazza
