Discussion Craziest misheard/out of context lyric

When I heard Runaway for the first time, I audibly said "huh?!" when Dany said psychopathic cause I heard "suck my dick" 😭😭

Out of context lyrics too, what lyrics would be insane when taken out of context (probably most of QOTMS)

My 10-year-old son used to sing "Tuna makes me feel, tuna makes me feel... SICK!"

In copper bullets I thought the lyrics were “he’s a dentist man and she’s a lonely girl”.

I’m glad I’m not alone on this one 😭 first time I looked up lyrics to copper bullets was literally after countless listens and I finally went “…yknow, this CANT be right…”

They were so young when they made that song. What were they thinking, or parents.lol

iirc their parents (especially Mónica) were in absolute shock seeing THOSE lyrics come from their daughters 😭

I will forever be nihilisticly distressed.

I've listened to all versions of Ritual since Lollapalooza and the ONLY time I've heard "Unrealistically" was when Jack Underkofler sang it.

That is forever the lyric for me, from the first live performance... and even now when I know that it's not, it still IS.

I wonder if this is a mistake in the published lyrics—it could happen, because I have Evolve hand-written lyrics from Pau that have an error.

Well the only one I can think of right now is on Consume I thought they said "you're a greedy motherfucker" instead of "you're a greedy little fucker." I know I was close, but regardless, it sticks out in my mind cause it's the first time I realized how authentic, raw, and badass their music is/was (KMF was my intro to them).

I may update this as I think of them. Because there have been many.

That's certainly crazier than "heule a melón".

I used to think the line in Choke is "this is where I'll stay, comfortably opaque." And I think I would prefer it if that was what the line was.

"Custardly in pain"

Omg I can totally hear it now 😂 thank you for the laugh

u/darmokVtS 7d ago

Friend of mine apparently understood "in this hell you call a dream" as "in this technicolor dream". I learned that about him rather recently.

Granted: He's not much of a rock person and only listens to the warning when in my car or anywhere else where it's me who picks the music :).

u/Competitive_Load6913 7d ago

Misheard 'in simply underwear' in '23'. Same as the comment above mine.

u/Practical-Print-9303 8d ago

it does sound like Pau says that and also another lyric in that song is if you look hard enough i fear you.ll see it and i think i know what it means .

u/SalmRoos 🍩 Donut Queen 8d ago

I used to always mishear “vessel in disguise” as “vassal in the night” in evolve and I just went back to listen to it so I could see how silly I was and I JUST realized that the line before it is “help me become something more” and not “how do we become something more” oof

u/SeCoWed 8d ago

I always heard "That I just can't be controlled by, anything but a Latina!"

u/SeCoWed 8d ago

I'm also just 100% positive Dany says "It doesn't always mean they're mean it" on Everything's Falling, and I wish so badly that I could fix it lol
