How about Benny & The Jets: She's got electric boobs, a mohawk too,
My mom hears the same.

There's an old Three Degrees song called 'My Simple Heart' which really sounds like they're singing 'Bicycle Hut'!

In Hope of Deliverance, my son used to think he was singing: Hope of Deliveries

Not really a lyric but... In Uncle Albert....right after the line....If anything should happen, we'll be sure to give a ring.... Then I always thought what I heard was the sound of a frog in the marshes. After reading an article related to Abbey Road, I found out that what I thought was a frog.... was Paul doing a sound effect of an English telephone ringing.... I still think it sounds like it's a frog in the marshes

I only just now learned that I've been mishearing the lyrics to "Daytime Nighttime Suffering" all along. I thought it was "What does she get for all the love she gave you There on the ladder of regrets? I, the river, give her all she gets And I also thought it was "What does it pay to play the leading lady When life's a damsel in distress Daytime nighttime suffering is all she gets? " (I actually kind of prefer my lyrics for that second one ) Lastly, I thought it was Come on, river, overflow Let your love for your fever show Come on, river, flow through me, Let your love for your fever be Not sure what I was thinking with that whole fever thing--I guess I equated it with "feverish love" or something, haha.

OK, don't read any further if you get offended easily. I thought in Uncle Albert he said "put it in your mouth or I'll put it in your pie." I know . . . . . dirty mind

That's ok - I used to think a line in "Love Awake" (Just before the middle eight) said 'And when we get laid - ahh love awake' ops:

I played Cat Steven's 'Izitso' also growing up, which has the song '(Remember The Days of The) Old Schoolyard'. Right at the end of the song it sounds like one of the kids says 'oh f**koff woo'. Listening closely to the vinyl, I always thought thats what it was. When I got the Greatest Hits CD, it's clearly 'Oh bucko, woo'. It's right at the end of the track, around 2.40mins Give it a listen

There's something similar at the end of 'Tainted Love' by Soft Cell. Right at the end it sounds like the backing vocals are singing 'Oh Sh**-ah'. And in 'Ape Man' by the Kinks, it sounds like Ray Davies is singing 'the air pollution keeps on f***ing up my eyes', but it's 'fogging' (easy mistake to make though)!

In Uncle Albert I too thought it was Put it in your mouth or I'll put it in your pie. In Hi, Hi, Hi I also hear bodygun. Thought for the longest time thats what it was. Now I also heard Blondie's Rapture as finger fucking, was embarrassed as hell when I sang it out loud and my friends had to correct me that it is finger popping. I like my versions better
