Misunderstood Song Lyrics

I used to think that the CCR song Bad Moon Rising was saying "There's a Bathroom on the right".

I used to think that the CCR song Bad Moon Rising was saying "There's a Bathroom on the right".

Apparently you weren't the only one.

speaking of "kiss this guy" that is the name of an actual website kissthisguy dot com. It's all about misheard song lyrics - it's hilarious

Two songs that are completely indecipherable to me are:

"1979" by the Smashing Pumpkins
"Evenflow" by Pearl Jam

Almost all songs have a word or two or line or two you can't quite understand, but when 90 percent of the song is gibberish (or the vocals are too low in the mix) it drives me insane. Despite the CCR "Bathroom On The Right" joke 99.9 percent of their lyrics are very clear & high in the mix. The Doors had a great vocal mix too.

Speaking of Pearl Jam

 

[Crakajak]

I don't know the lyrics of 99.9% of all rap songs.

First one that came to mind.

You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel. With 400 hundred children and a crop in the field

Eurythmics - "Sweet dreams are made of cheese"

The completely indecipherable Pearl Jam song is "Yellow Ledbetter." It's indecipherable because it doesn't have any lyrics. They liked the music, but hadn't written any lyrics; and they recorded it with Eddie doing mumbling make-it-up-as-you-go scratch lyrics with the intent of coming back later and recording the real lyrics. So they wound up liking how it turned out and just left it the way it was.

 

[NCHillbilly]

The one song that I could never ever figure the lyrics out to is The Outlaws, "Green Grass and High Tides."

 

[blood on the ground]

Pearl Jam, Yellow Ledbetter.... Who knows what the heck Eddie is saying?
