Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Frankie Valli

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 Real Lyrics:

Frankie Valli's, "My Eyes Adored You"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Mice of Georgia
The Real Lyrics:
My eyes adored you.
The Story: I remember a D.J. poking fun at this song and saying that the lyrics sounded like 'Mice of Georgia' instead of 'My eyes adored you'. Never forgot it, so I'm reminded every time I hear the song. - Submitted by: Steve Jackson
Frankie Valli's, "My Eyes Adored You"
The Misheard Lyrics:
My eyes of Georgia
The Real Lyrics:
My eyes adored you.
The Story: I never understood what the artist was trying to say. My eyes of Georgia made no sense, but that's what I heard. Even now that I know the true lyric, My Eyes of Georgia just seems to roll off of the tongue easier. - Submitted by: Brian
Frankie Valli's, "My Eyes Adored You"
The Misheard Lyrics:
My sweet Georgia
or
My sadorcha
The Real Lyrics:
My eyes adored you
The Story: I was at my friend's house when this song came on and she and her mother asked me to settle their debate about what the actual lyrics were. My friend thought the singer was saying, 'My sweet Georgia' and her mother thought he was saying, 'My sadorcha' (whatever that is). Since the next line is 'I never laid a hand on you, but my eyes adored you,' I thought this was fairly obvious, but evidently not. I still laugh about it 25 years later. - Submitted by: Karen E.
