The drive by podcast brought to you by OwnSpace. Episode 205 of the drive by podcast. I'm Freeway Frank. I've always wanted to do a special podcast on misheard lyrics. Why? Because it's a lot of fun and I want to see or I want to hear. I want to hear if you hear what I hear of misheard lyrics on the drive by podcast. Now I'm a guy who is definitely a music aficionado. I love music. Since I was a kid, I would miss hear lyrics and then find out the lyrics to the actual songs and say, Oh, wait a minute, I thought all along, I was hearing this. So that is what I'm going to do on this podcast. Now, because I can't play the clips too long, or else the algorithms will pick them up and I'll get in trouble and probably the podcast will be blocked. And then I won't be able to ever do this again. So I have to keep the clips very short to the part where the misheard lyric is happening. So let's begin with my all time favorite, this song that I'll tell you more about the artist and the title of the song and see if we hear the same thing. Every time you go away by Paul Young, every time you go away, you take a piece of me with you. I've always heard the lyric every time you go away, you take a piece of meat with you. I was I'd be like, why is he taking a piece of meat? And then as the years passed, and all these video shows started to appear, this song made it on one of those shows. And so I wasn't the only one, right? I'm sure you heard the exact same thing. Let's keep it going. I believe the lyric from Berlin's Take My Breath Away is through the hourglass I saw you, but I always heard, ♪ Julio Iglesias I saw you ♪ And I was like, why is, why does she see Julio Iglesias? Some would say a stretch, but that also appeared on one of those misheard lyric shows, and I had heard it way before, like back in the day when I was young. If by the way, you hear something in any song that you listen to, new or old, you could also DM me every way, Frank. And you could also agree or disagree as to whether you hear the lyrics I hear in these songs that are very popular. Let's keep going. Ah, yes, Michael Jackson, you are not alone. 1995, remember playing it on the radio in Vancouver? Your burgers are the best. You are not alone, right? Your burgers are the best. Your burdens I will bear, not your burgers are the best. Let's keep going. Someone else must hear what I'm hearing. I'm on no drugs. I was never on any drugs. You're listening to misheard lyrics, special edition on the drive-by podcast. I believe that the hot dogs, more meat, I believe that the hot dogs go on. The grill? That song is forever ruined, forever ruined. From the minute I heard it and I heard hot dogs, instead of the hard goes, the hard does go on. Doesn't make a difference if we're naked or not. Tell me you didn't hear that before. Line, of course, it doesn't make a difference if we make it or not. But maybe you hear naked there? I hear naked. How about this one? As a big Coldplay fan, I saw them here in Montreal, saw them in Toronto as well. This is what I hear. Dream of Para, Para, Para Dice, Para, Para, not paradise, a pair of dice. This point you're like, Frank, me too. I've been hearing that forever. Or you're like, Frank, you need to get your ears checked. But maybe there's a song you hear the lyrics to that are not even close to the actual lyrics. And that will be coming up. Don't worry. I'm going to get to probably that song you're thinking of because there's just too many out there. And too many people are hearing the same thing. Actual lyric, I can see clearly now the rain is gone. I hear, I could see clearly now Lorraine is gone. I was like, where did Lorraine go? This could probably have been the very first LGBTQ plus divided by six plus four song. Because I would always hear instead of excuse me while I kiss the sky, which Jimi Hendrix was singing. Some people here, I hear excuse me while I kiss this guy. How close is that one to being while I kiss this guy? That's the only thing I hear. And the only thing I heard when I was young, and it's still there in my ears and my brain. How about the King of rock and roll? Elvis Presley. I've always heard one of these three misheard lyrics. People hear this the other two. I heard one. You tell me which one you hear. Actual lyric were caught in a trap. What I hear, we caught him a trout. I've also heard some people have heard recording a track, or for a while it was call it a tramp. They call it a tramp. As I mentioned, I'm trying to get to the actual lyric. I can't play longer than five to seven seconds. If I'm still here, it means this has not been taken off, which is great. I'm doing my job. Let's continue with another misheard lyric. Actual lyric from Ariana Grande. I'm so fucking grateful for my ex. I actually hear, and a lot of people hear, I'm so fucking grateful for my ex. It's unbelievable the amount of songs that are so close to being what we miss here. It's just so many of them. That's me in the corner. Sometimes I hear let's pee in the corner, which makes sense too. This one has always confused me. Actual lyric. A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido. What I hear and many, I'm a lion, I'm a vinyl, I'm a skittle, I'm a beetle. Doesn't it sound more like that? How about money for nothing and the chicks for free? But instead money for nothing, I'm hearing and the chips for free, chips. Okay, I know there's a lot of Swifties out there. Taylor Swift is loved by everyone except for maybe Donald Trump, because she doesn't like him. But I've always appreciated her as a singer, songwriter, but anytime I start hearing too much bullshit and she doesn't really do too much of it. She's pretty good at sticking to what she does best, which is her music. But this is the one I've always misheard and I'm not the only person. Not even close. Everyone hears what I hear in this misheard lyric for Taylor Swift's big hit Blank Space. Actual lyric that I would hear from all the years of playing it on the radio, all the lonely Starbucks lovers. That's not it. It's not all the lonely Starbucks lovers. It's got a long list of ex lovers. Okay, okay, I hear it now, but I still hear Starbucks. This next one I heard, I remember I was a kid, but it was way before my time. But then I remember playing it when I worked on an oldie station after it changed from top 40 to oldies. The station was oldies 990 in Montreal. I remember hearing this lyric and I was like, well, that's mean. Actual lyric to the song by the monkeys. Then I saw her face. Now I'm a believer. What I actually heard. Then I saw her face. Now I'm gonna leave her. Especially since the next lyric is not a trace of a doubt in my mind because I saw her face and now I'm gonna leave her. Makes more sense than the actual lyric. This is one of the biggest ones. I remember hearing or seeing on a video show back in the much music MTV days that a lot of people heard. The actual line by Elton John is "Hold me closer, tiny dancer." But people are hearing, "Hold me closer, Tony Danza." Okay, maybe you got to be a little deaf there. And the hearing might not be good because I hear "dancer" but you could kind of hear it if it's still the distance in a Danza. I know I don't hear penis, penis. I know some people would expect that misheard lyric. The actual lyric by Europe, the final countdown is "We're heading for Venus." But you kind of hear "We're working for peanuts." Some are a stretch. Some you could actually hear. I don't hear that one. That's a big one on a bunch of rock sites for a lot of people they hear that. And again, a lot of these songs are personal. You've just been hearing them a certain way for so long you can't get it out of your head. That's what it is for me and most people. This one is, I don't know. I even interviewed these guys, Eiffel 65, an Italian duo. I brought them all around. I showed them Vancouver when they were big. They came on my radio show. We spoke Italian. It was cool. And I asked them what it meant. And they said, "No, that's not it." I've always heard "I'm blue. Dabadidabada. If I were green, I would die. If I were green, I would die." But those are not the lyrics. The actual lyrics to blue and Eiffel 65 is "I'm blue, Dabadidabada. Dabadidabada. That's it." So when I even told them if I were green and all of it, they looked at me like, "No, that's not it. Not even close." I was convinced I was decoding the actual meaning of the song back when it came out in the late 90s and I was talking to these guys. And you know, being straight out of Italy, I had this connection with them. And so I spent a lot of time with them that day before they performed. I was like, "It's got to be if I were green, I would die." But he was like, Gabby was like, "But why would you die if you were green?" I go, "No, that's just what I'm hearing." No? This next lyric always confused me. People hear something completely different. I hear something I guess no one else hears. The actual lyric is "Jermi Spoke in Class Today" by Pearl Jam. "Jermi Spoke in Class Today." What I hear is "Jermi Spoke and," as in "Spoke and," the city in Washington, "Jermi Spoke and," and other people hear, "Jermi Spoke and Grass Today." And I was convinced for the longest time, since they're from Seattle, Washington, that he was saying, "Jermi Spoke and," like this is the man, oh, maybe he's from "Jermi in Spoke and Washington." Not even close. This next one has to be one of the most misheard lyrics in the history of music. By CCR, "Bad Moon Rising," I actually hear the misheard lyric. Everybody does. The actual lyric is, "There's a Bad Moon on the Rise." What it actually sounds like as clear as day, "There's a Bathroom on the Right." And that could be a gender-neutral bathroom, too, that you're going in. Be careful. I never know who's in there.

All summer long, check out Baton Rouge, Grillhouse, and Bar. Billie Jean is not my mother. That's what I hear. Actual lyric Billie Jean is not my lover, but the chair is not my son. That's not the lyric. That's what a lot of people are hearing, but the chair is not my son. Actual lyric, but the kid is not my son. Next up, Uncle Cracker and Dolby Gray. Actual lyric, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul. What am I hearing? Give me the beach, boys, and free my soul. It's what I've always heard, the beach, boys. It's unbelievable when it gets stuck in your head. That's where it remains and it never changes. About a big summertime song from a couple of years back. "Summertime Sadness" by Lana Del Rey. You may be surprised to learn she's not singing. I'm feeling ill like Drake tonight, but rather I'm feeling electric tonight, but it sounds like I'm feeling ill like Drake tonight. Why is Drake sick? That's a good one. I'm feeling ill like Drake tonight. Totally sounds like that. How about Canadian Katie Lang? I always heard her sing assholes when she was singing constant craving, but it's not assholes. She's singing all souls, but to me it's assholes. Shania Twain, I can't believe you kiss your cock at night. If you could kiss your cock at night, that's not gay. That's big, that's big, or you are flexible, very flexible. You can't tell me that's on a better lyric. That's a classic. It's a classic misheard lyric. Should be the actual lyric. This one always perplexes me. Manford man blinded by the light. I always heard wrapped up like a douche when you're rolling in the night. Actual lyric revved up like a douche, another runner in the night. Whatever that means. How about another Michael Jackson tune? This one was one of my favorite of all time, but not the misheard lyric. Actual lyric and no message could have been any clearer. I hear and no mustache. We could go on by the way for weeks. This episode will only be about 30 minutes long. And how many have we gone through already? It's insane. Imagine I could do this in real time. And you could be calling me or texting me and telling me the songs that you hear. This is endless. It goes on forever. Macy Gray, I try. I blow bubbles when you are not here. No, that is not the lyric. That's the misheard lyric. Actual lyric. My world crumbles when you are not near. Makes more sense. I dread the end of April. I dread the month of May coming because all those memes appear. It's gonna be May. Of course, that is in sync. The recently arrested Justin Timberlake. It should be it's gonna be me, not May. Yes, I have to do that one. Some people here, sweet dreams are made of cheese. I always heard these, but it's a popular one. People dreaming of cheese, I guess. How about Queen's under pressure? Do you hear what I hear? Pressure, pushing down on me, pressing down on you. You're an asshole. What? What? Too much of a stretch? No pun intended. About the stones. I'll never be your pizza person. I could also be I never see your pizza burning. I hear that too. Now that I think about it. Of course, it's beast of burden by the stones. Sounds like it's just a goodbye, bitches. Bitches. It's good vibrations. That's Lady Gaga, poker face. I used to hear poke her face. We'll leave the rest to the imagination in that misheard lyric. How about Justin Timberlake? So I want to rock your body. I want to rock your body. David Spade. If you actually heard the proper lyrics for all these songs, you will never be able to hear them the same way again. Maybe these horrible lyrics or misheard ones. We'll be the ones you'll hear from that one. I'm sorry, by the way. I apologize ahead of time. This one I heard since I was a kid. The song was by Neil Diamond. It was called Forever, as in always, Forever in Blue Genes. And I always heard Reverend Blue Genes. I was wise a pastor called Reverend Blue Genes. Forever in Blue Genes. That's because he's not, but he's Forever in Blue Genes. Man, did I miss that one. It's crazy how some of these songs, most of them, at least for me, were from like literally when I was young. And I loved lyrics and I would open up whether it was an album or whether it was a CD cover and read the lyrics. But for some, I never bothered. I just made up shit in my mind. And it's always been with me. Like, it's probably always been with you. Lou Combs did it most recently, but the original is by Tracy Chapman. Fast car. I always heard the lyric, working at a dentine store, managed to save a little bit of money. And dentine store, I thought as the gum, dentine, you know, when you would go to like a Deppaner here in Quebec convenience store, and they had either the beer company, the gum they were trying to promote, whatever, sponsored the sign of the store. I thought it was working at a dentine store. Nope, not even close. She actually says I've been working at the convenience store convenience store. It'll always be dentine for me. I'm going to wrap it up with one of the best I've ever heard. This person was requesting a song on a Mexican radio station. And the DJ, the radio host couldn't figure out the song the guy wanted to hear. And finally, it hit him. It's the best. This is the best ever. Check this out if you haven't heard it. Are those some Reebok or some Nike? Nike? Nike? It's a song Reebok or some Nike? It's a song Reebok or some Nike? It's the best one ever. So that was the original, I think, from a Spanish station, and then Mexican stations, all other stations that play Spanish music around the world started copying that. So radio hosts started duplicating that and basically getting actors and redoing it. But that was, if I'm not mistaken, the original one and the best of the miss heard lyrics.
