"Hes dancin with tha chicken slacks"
For years I wondered what chicken slacks were, the 60s must have been a really weird time.

My daughter heard me listening to Steve Miller, and I heard her later singing, "Jumbo love, and Strawberry Man, it's making me crazy", and I thought it was funny so I would sing along with her.
Now, I really have to think what the real lyrics are and I can't unhear the Strawberry Man part.

To make this seasonal. A friend's daughter singing Have a Holly Jolly Christmas:
Ho ho the mistletoe
Is hung where you can see
Somebody waits for you
Gizzards just for me
Ho ho the mistletoe
Is hung where you can see
Somebody waits for you
Gizzards just for me
When my daughter heard Marilyn Manson come on the radio years ago:
"the beautiful meatballs...the beautiful meatballs..."
"the beautiful meatballs...the beautiful meatballs..."
I blew out my flip flop
Stepped on a poptart
Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home
Stepped on a poptart
Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home
I'll never be, your pizza burning
That's also in a whole other category ... song lyrics that have been rendered out of date by modern conveniences. No one under the age of about 40 knows what a pop top is.AgTrip said:

I think about that every time I hear an old song that references putting a dime in the jukebox or leaving a message on the answering machine.

When I was in high school I used to play soccer with some mexicans and one of them liked to sing Alanis Morrissette but sang...
"It's like raaaiiiiin...on a rainy day!"
Always made me laugh since the song is "Ironic" and there's nothing ironic about it raining on a rainy day.

Just like there's nothing ironic about rain on your wedding day.
"Black Widow" -Iggy Azalea
"Like a black, wittle baby!"
I couldn't for the life of my understand why she was rapping about small black babies, and why she felt the need to baby talk the word "little".
What a terrible song, regardless.

When I was 5 or so, I though the Oak Ridge Boys were singing "Hell Fire Her" instead of "Elvira" as if the song was about a grizzled old factory owner who'd had it up to here with that ***** in accounting.
My wife thought Heaven by Bryan Adams started out with "Thinking about how young he is" instead of "our younger years"

My wife thought Toby Keith was singing about "wearing my sex shoes" instead of "wearing my six shooters" in "I shoulda been a cowboy".
Corollary to this discussion ... for some songs today, it can be difficult to find the actual lyrics because some moron types them out to lyrics.com or something and all the others just copy it.
So if the first person gets it wrong, it's wrong everywhere.

My personal favorite is my son mistaking lyrics in "Royals" by Lorde.
"Let me be your roofer, roofer
And you can call me green beans"
"

It could be because my brain isn't much beyond that of a 14 year old, but I always heard "Open Condom Style" which I assumed was just the way South Koreans referred to unprotected sex.

My idiot friends thought ELO was singing, "beeeeeautiful woman" instead of "evil woman".
I just realized a year or so ago that in the song "Footloose," the line before "everybody cut footloose" was "lose your blues." I actually had no idea what Kenny Loggins was singing there, even though I'd heard the song hundreds of times. When I sang along, I would just mumble something there.
I also never knew he was singing "metal under tension" in the third line of "Danger Zone."
Come to think of it, Kenny Loggins is one of those singers who can be really difficult to understand. Kinda like Elton John.

Benny and the Jets:
"She had electric boobs…my mom had two…you know I read it in a magazine"
It was;
"she had electric shoes…a mohair suit…you know i read it in a magazine"

A client of mine told me the story of a house party he attended that had a small dance floor. At various times throughout one of the songs, one of the women would curiously shake her hands in the air. It was the Freddy Fender song, "Wasted Days and Wasted Nights" but she thought he was singing "Wave to Dave and Wave to Mike".
