Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Technotronic

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 Story: A woman singer with short hair sings this song (Miss Ya Kid K), and when I heard her saying "One, Two, I'm a party dude". I always thought she was a Transsexual. - Submitted by: Alex Portnoy, Newcastle, NSW, Australia
Technotronic's, "Move This"
The Misheard Lyrics:
People don't you know, don't you know it's a bottom
Can't you feel the jammin' pumpin while you taste a piece of mine?
Many different play-poles and the spots is strong.
The Real Lyrics:
People don't you know, don't you know it's about time
Can't you feel the jammin' pumpin' while you taste a piece of mine?
Many different flavors and the spice is strong.
The Story: My favorite song since I was 10. I'm now 21, and I found out the correct lyrics last year when I was singing at the top of my lungs at a stoplight. - Submitted by: Caroline Reed
Technotronic's, "Pump Up The Jam"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Get your booty on the porch light.
The Real Lyrics:
Get your booty on the floor tonight.
The Story: We corrected my friend just last week! For over a decade she's thought it was the other way. LMAO - Submitted by: Tim
Technotronic's, "Pump Up The Jam"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Iowa, a place to stay.
The Real Lyrics:
I want a place to stay.
The Story: I have always thought those were the right lyrics. And I also live in Iowa. - Submitted by: Q
Technotronic's, "Pump Up the Jam"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Get your booty on the court tonight.
The Real Lyrics:
Get your booty on the floor tonight.
The Story: I think the movie Space made me think that the lyric was court instead of floor. - Submitted by: Doran Mitchell
Technotronic's, "This Beat Is Technotronic"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Get into the sound, keep rollin' the tune
Feel like rockin' the whole track team, it's only for you
The Real Lyrics:
Get into the sound, keep rollin' the tune
Feel like rockin' the whole track through, just stand only for you
The Story: It's just one word difference, but it paints a startling picture. Banging a whole track team would take a lot of energy, so the singer's feeling really good, I guess? I knew that couldn't be the real lyric, but couldn't work out what it really was until I used the Google. - Submitted by: Josiah
