Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Belle Stars

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!).


Belle-Issima!: Sweet Memories... album at Amazon.com
Belle Stars', "Iko Iko"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Jack him off until dawn
The Real Lyrics:
Jock-amo fee nane
The Story: Hey, it was 1989 and many artists and bands were beginning to release songs geared simply to defy the fanatical stupid Tipper Gore PMRC types who want to tell us what to watch/read/listen to for entertainment. It wasn't until I saw a video clip for the original Dixie Cups version on MuchMusic (MTV Canada) then I realized the Carribean nature of the song, and that it had been covered MANY times before by various acts including Cyndi Lauper and the Grateful Dead. - Submitted by: 80s Veteran
