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!).

And I never liked you
Admit that I was wrong
And I never like to admit that I was wrong
The Story: Personally, I think this one was an easy mistake to make. Singers use contractions and abbreviate things all the time, so it was easy for me to believe that Justin Bieber would drop the word 'I' from a sentence like 'I admit that I was wrong'. - Submitted by: T'Ley
Never say Beaver
Never say Never
The Story: When Never Say Never first came out, I was completely convinced Justin Bieber was singing "Never say Beaver" and that the song was about him fighting everyone who called him Justin Beaver. It made perfect sense to me because lots of people I knew called him Justin Beaver... my older brother's friend corrected me, and then made fun of me for, like, a year. - Submitted by: Liv
