this is the thread where we can share our past experiences of "mishearing" beatles lyrics without being embarrased.
It would work best if you post the name the song, the misheard lyrics, and the actual lyrics. if you have a funny story to share about your moment of realization, please share.
I'll start:
Can't Buy Me Love- Misheard Lyrics: It's puppy love Actual Lyrics: Can't Buy Me Love
I Want to Hold Your Hand- Misheard Lyrics: I get high Actual Lyrics: I can't hide
Mean Mr Mustard- Misheard Lyrics: this ones sad...keeps a tampon stuck up his nose Actual Lyrics: keeps a ten bob note up his nose

one sweet dream, pick up the bags and get in the limousine. soon we'll be away from here. step on the gas and wipe that tear away. one sweet dream came true today...
I guess I've heard some of them wrong, but since they always put the lyrics in their albums it was easy to get them right. That and they usually sing pretty clearly. The singer I have the MOST trouble understanding has to be Mick Jagger. I cannot understand half of what he's singing most of the time.
I didn't know that! But I totally agree! I can't even misquote any of his stuff cuz it's like jibberish! Here's one from Honky Tonk Woman-(I met her jencesen bar room queen in Memphis" and then something about New York City. I like when Whoopi Goldberg tries to sing Jumpin Jack Flash in that movie. She cracks me up. 'I was raised by two lesbians!"
