Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Jon Bon Jovi

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:
I could kick this bad world down if I could just get on my feet

The Story: I have all respect for the man as a songwriter but why the hell would he be talking about kicking the world down? Unless maybe he was talking about when the world kicks you when you're already down. - Submitted by: dayna
