Songs that you sung incorrect as a kid

Player wants to score, player player wants to score

Use to sing that instead of "player what's the score".

Always baffled myself as I was thinking "of course he wants to score".

 

Funny song to sing to Gary Player.

 

I seem to remember it was sung at the away fans, as in “Wednesday, Wednesday (or whoever) what’s the score”, just after we had gone in front. They might not have known because there was no scoreboard then

 

Incorrectly,,,,,,sorry, couldn't resist!

 

Toto - Africa.

Actual lyrics - There's nothin' that a hundred men or more could ever do.

My lyrics - There's nothing that a hundred men on Mars could ever do.

I thought these were actually the words... for years.

 

AC/DC - Riff Raff

It ain't humid, but it sure is hot,
Down in Mexico.

which I always sang as

It ain't humid, but it sure is hot
I got a nasty cold.

I still prefer my version...

 

Christopher Cross - Ride Like The Wind;
“…but I’ve got such a long way to go (such a long way) to make it to the Barnsley Metrodome”

 

Phil Collins I think "Bring me an iron lung"

 

And it’s Barnserleeee, Barnserleeee FC. We’re the father’s greatest team, the world has ever seen.

Always assumed that we were signing we were god’s team for some reason.

 

Americanos by Holly Johnson
Instead of a kid without a cent can grow up to be president I always thought it was a kid without sense can grow up to be president...turned out right with Trump in 2016...hopefully he doesn't get in next time

 

Strange Town by The Jam.

Actual lyrics

You've got to move in a straight line
You've got to walk and talk in four-four time
You can't be weird in a strange town
You'll be betrayed by your accent and manners

I was hearing

You've got to move in a straight line
You've got to walk and talk in football time
You can't be weird in a strange town
You'll be betrayed by your accent to matters

 

For years I sung little Ronnie Corbett instead of Little red Corvette. I thought that Prince must have been a fan of the two Ronnies

 

My step son when he was 9, many years ago...

Instead of "I can see clearly now the rain has gone"

We got

"I can see Keely now Lorraine has gone"

 

Listening to the last Johnie Walkers Sounds of the Seventies yesterday he played We are Family and I had to sing “…just let me staple the vicar” (as in Peter Kay’s very funny version).

 

When we were kids we used to sing “Come on feel the noise, girls shag the boys”

& “Did you miss me yeah when I was away, did you hang my knickers on the wall?”

Also “You’re like a footballing Jew on a brand new day”

There was also a song in the 80s by Hipsway that we used to sing “I’m a lion on a piece of bread”

Oh and my mate used to think the song by The Knack was called ‘Icy roader’

 

Stevie Wynwood

 

Hot Chocolate - "I believe in milko"

 

Tonight, I sellotape my glove to you

 

I also thought it was this….
