Have you ever messed up the words to a song so badly, but in a strange way the "new" words seem to work?

Question

Example... my grandmother (who has since passed on) was always listing to our (the grandkids music)... and she liked it. One day we were listening to the radio when AC/DC "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" comes on... and my Granny is singing "dirty girl go drive that jeep"..... it was only later when she got her hearing aids... did she say "jen, turn that crap off!".... I said granny you like AC/DC... remember the "dirty girl" song.... she said "well, that was before... now it sounds like crap!" I totally disagree with her, but often wonder... how many songs did she actually hear correctly? how about you do you confuse the words to your favorite songs?

Answer 1

You know that song, "Shining Star?" You're a shining star, no matter who you are...anyways. Well for the longest time it was stuck in my head as "You're a shinging star, no matter who you are. You've got the right to sing, 'cause you a juju bead." It made NO SENSE and it's some kind of candy. I have no idea how I thought of that. I had to look up the lyrics to stop thinking that.

Answer 2

Lol. Your Granny sounds like she was a piece of work. My Granny is still alive and still loves to talk about men. She loves to read those really trashy love story novels. Anyway I have not mixed up the words to songs but have had a good time singing "Amazing Grace" to the tune of Gilligans Island theme song. It works and I hope that I don't go to hell for it. Tee hee.

Answer 3

Yes I mess up rap songs. When I try to repeat it come out all funny. Especially the southern rap songs. When they talk fast I make up the rest as I go along.

Answer 4

Haha, my mom is the same way. She just makes up her own words, and they kinda sound like they'd go with the song sometimes, lol.

Answer 5

Can't say if they've ever worked out for me...but it was funny when my sister thought it was "When a Man Was a Woman" by Michael Bolton
