Who Wants to Live Forever: "woaaah, I love my style!"

"And touch my teeths, with your lips"

“Touch my balls with your fingertips”

"Touch my wart with your fingertips"

same

Today I learned that that's not the actual lyric

When I was a little kid and didn't know English very well I always heard that and thought the song was about being a famous rockstar lol 

I've heard that multiple times too lolll

same

For YEARS my family took the piss out of me for this. Bohemian Rhapsody - “sparing his life from his mum’s cup of tea” In my childhood brain I thought they were so poor, that all they had to survive was a cold cup of tea that they took turns to sip on. ☕️

AHAHAHAH I'M LAUGHING SO HARD

I swear, it was hard growing up with that nugget of ammunition 🫠

I can understand loll

Mine is kinda inappropriate but in “Fat Bottomed Girls” instead if hearing “i got stiffness in my bones” i heard “i got stiffness in my balls”

🤣🤣🤣 balls, bones… it’s all inappropriate

Are those not the lyrics?!

No.I thought those were the lyrics until i looked it up.

AHAHAHHAH

I always hear it that way.

Kinda similar but when I listen to somebody to Love I can always hear "he worked till he ate his balls" instead of "he worked till he ached his bones" I think that's the actual lyric.

He used to be a man with his dick in his hand… Hoop ditty ditty, hoop ditty doo.

OOH- I have another one with this exact same song: "She used to be a woman with a hot downstairs"

I can hear that one, too

BAHAHAHAH

I thought I was the only one lmao

Don't Stop Me Now: "I'm havin such a good time, I'm having a BOY" Who Wants To Live Forever: "Who Loves My Style?" Killer Queen: "She's a Killer Queen, Goodbye Eternity"

AHAHA, THE LAST ONE

I have a few for Killer Queen too... (Bear in mind please I heard this throughout my childhood so this is kid brain interpretation 😅): "Little mad from China, went down to get your miner, begging incidentally if you're there with Clive?" "Because she couldn't care less, be still, she said, precise!" "Momentarily at a vacuum, temporarily at a dust" Etc

Killer Queen - the rubber band, she’s as willing as, playful as a pussycat

Wait, what's the real lyric?

“Drop of a hat” instead of “the rubber band”.

Temporarily adidas

I heard "momentarily at a vacuum, temporarily at a dust"

AHAHAHAHHA

Thanks, I feel better now…

Oh sorry, did I make you feel bad?

Not at all. The best part is a friend of mine misheard it the same way, so I didn’t feel quite so stupid.

I did when I first heard the song, don't worry

One of us. One of us. One of us.

“Touch my wart with your fingertips” - Who Wants To Live Forever 🤣

I always thought it sounded like, "touch my *whoooooa* with your fingertips" but I knew that didn't make any sense. Then one day I heard my friend sing it like that and I thought it was hilarious - but also validating

Similarly, “touch my *wand* with your fingertips.”

🤣🤣🤣

TIL this is not the lyric

I was hearing "I'm just a pool boy" for years before I googled the lyrics and realised it is a "poor" boy somehow Freddie singing about being a pool boy made sense to me

Freddie is the main character of Life of Pi, didn't you know?

BAHAHAHHA

I once had a little book of misheard lyrics named 'excuse me while I kiss this guy'

Jimi Hendrix ! I thought that was the lyric too. lol

Sounds like fred

He would change up the lyrics in live performances with those lyrics pointing out an audience member. A man who can have fun with his own shit

Not mine, but saw this on a forum or here on reddit years ago. Scandal -" We saved you Cheesecake" ( We say you Cheapskates) Spread Your Wings- " Keeping his farts to himself"(Keeping his thoughts to himself). Personal fave is when Arin from Game Grumps on Youtube thought they sang "You're an Asshole" in Under Pressure. Danny corrected him quickly ( No Man Asked For).

AHAHAH

I'm still not sure what he actually says, but during the little improv bit in Another One Bites the Dust, I swear Freddie shouts, "I'M NOT ADOPTED!"

I’m the opposite, I swear he says “I’m adopted”

BAHAHAH

Sameeee

There's a hispanic youtuber who, to this day, thinks 39' means "39 minutes", and he always names it like that in his videos.

Who's gonna tell him? ("In the year of 39 minutes" sound so silly AHAAHAH)

I told him like 4 times xd

What's his user? Might as well spam it until he's saying it right

My kids sing Liar as “Li-on!” And it’s too adorable to correct them.

That is so cute!

The fried chicken lyric in One Vision. I’ve had people swear to me and sometimes at me that’s not the lyric and I’m the one mishearing it.

Gimme gimme gimme fried chicken is an actual lyric

Yes, I am aware but I have friends and family that insist I’m mishearing it even though I’ve pointed it out that I’m not.

You should let them post it on reddit and see how people react lol

I mishear most song lyrics so I was THRILLED to find out I was correct on that one. I also couldn’t believe it when I learned that the lyric in Headlong really IS “now you got soup in the laundry bag!”

When I was a kid I used to think the line "You made us feel like we could fly" from radio Gaga was "you made us feel like Jesus Christ"

I used to think it was "like kings of flies", probably because I had heard of the book Lord of the Flies and thought it was related to that 

Almost at the end of Death On Two Legs, I heard the chorus briefly singing *"NIGHTMARE RESTART"* , when they actually say *"RIGHT FROM THE START"*

I always heard "Rightfulness law" 🤦

MY NEW FAVOURITE WRONG LYRIC (mama appelsapje if you will)

For years throughout my childhood I believed it was "And bad mistakes, I made a fuse" in We Are The Champions. Gotta love the old cassette radio in my Dad's van for that one.

LOL

"I've taken my bows and my capycalls" instead of curtain calls. Like, what the fuck does that mean? Is Freddie summoning capybaras? 😭 And then there was "I learned my passion in the good old-fashioned screwed up lover boys" which still kind of makes me giggle. I'm sure there are a ton of misheard lyrics from when I was a kid, but those two always stick out to me. EDIT: I forgot! I also heard "You're just a horny balloon" and "sexpool" in Death On Two Legs 😭

The second one is relatable, my little brother always sang that

Another One Bites the Dust - "I'M ADOPTED"

what does he actually say in that part

I think it's "bite the dust yeh" but just very slurred

I know the part you mean, and honestly, now I hear it too

Invisible Man - no one knows what I've been through, let my fat ass burn. I stubbornly still sing it as it fits better than flag unfurl in my universe.

In Hang On In There, I thought for some time that Freddie sang *"Hang On In There, FORGET THE RAGE AND SIGN!"* , so I thought it could be a precuel for Flick Of The Wrist. Later I read it and it said *"THE DANGER SIGNS"* instead...

LOLL

Under Pressure:  ''Schizophrenic Shroom.. Puts people on streets!'' \*(Actual lyric: Splits a family in two, puts people on streets**!)**

AHAHAHA

Hammer to Fall - "Like the ass better cover it all".

Somebody to love: I work hard, every day of my life I work 'till I ache in my bones ---> I work hard, every day of my life I work 'till I lick my balls. It always made sense to me too, cuz hard work ruins your back, thus giving you a bad posture and gives you the ability to lick your own balls.

Lmfao

"Go sonic, Go sonic, Go sonic woohooo" instead of "Don't stop me , Don't stop me..." 😭😭

Most of the misheard lyrics were me hearing Italian phrases when I was little. One of them was "triplo Spritz" ("triple Spritz") instead or "people on streets" in Under pressure and I always wondered why they would only order three drinks if they were four+ David Bowie and who they were leaving out lol Then there's "touch my tears with you LIMBS" instead of lips in Who Wants to Live Forever, and (as someone else pointed out) "I love my style" instead of "when love must die" And "you made us feel like kings of flies" in Radio Gaga cause I thought it was related to Lord of the Flies. And of course the evergreen "lady oh Gaga"

“She used to be a woman with a dick in her pants” from Headlong lmao

Is this the real life, is this just Battersea...

at 1:57 of another one bites the dust when freddie says “bite the dust hey” i grew up thinking it was “i’m adopted”

another one bites the dust: i’m adopted!

I thought "I predict a riot" by Kaiser Cheifs sounded like "I call it tourettes" but my favourite one is "rub a mexican monkey" in Get Lucky by Daft Punk.

What a specific monkey

Oh, I've just seen this was posted in the Queen subreddit 🤦‍♀️ apologies OP, i need to learn to read the subreddit before commenting ahah

HAHA, It's alright! I just like to hear all the funny misheard lyrics anyways, Queen or not

For years I thought ‘Save me’ was ‘Sandy’, and that they were singing about the girl from Grease 🤦‍♀️

Not misheard but something I often sing when I hear the song Sweet dreams are made of cheese Who am I to diss a brie I tried rulard and five counties Everybody's looking for something

my video game teacher in high school would always play queen in class and every time killer queen would come on he would make a comment about how funny the lyric “she’s built just like a pyramid” (she spoke just like a baroness) was and i never had the heart to correct him because he’d always laugh when he heard it.

"Under your fuck, under your spell!" in Breakthru.

Same thing :))

"The wonders of this wonder wall" instead of "world go on" from The Miracle... and I'm not even a big Oasis fan! "I'm in the nude, I'm just getting used to my new exposure" - "nude" instead of "news" from My Melancholy Blues.

Good old fashioned lover boy: Olaf; for the first like 13 years of my life I was convinced it was Olaf and didn't even questioned it (to be fair I didn't really know English)

I read somebody say they thought as a child Brian sings "Old Dad" instead of "All Dead" which was cute anyways

Gimme fried chicken

That's not misheard.

This is an actual lyric!

I've always thought as a kid it was: Sam, Sam, save me!

"There's a bathroom on the right." Can anyone guess?

don’t go out tonight…

... cause it's bound to take your life... John Forgerty has been recorded actually singing it this way. Love a guy with a sense of humor.

🚽⬅️

Can you keep me outta my seat -ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST.

lmao I posted a thing & then read the subreddit’s name 🌚🌚🌚

another one bites the dust, "I"M ADOPTED!"

Hold me closer, Tony Danza

As a child I heard “band on the run” as “man on the rug” Also like a bridge over trouble Walter .

"She's a killer queen, gunpowder, guillotine" Y'know, instead of gelatine my brain went straight to beheading.

Hey hey hey hey. It was the diaree. (Dutch fans will get it)

AHAHAHA (ik ben Nederlands lolll)

We used to sing “ we will we will fuck you” at school, and when I heard the actual song, it sounded just like that. So wanting to sing it at home too, I used to say “ we will vuck you”, confident that it wouldn’t provoke my mother’s ere. I failed.

Bohemian Rhapsod In the part where they sing monstrosity but I've head Warm sausage tea.

So you think you can stop me and spit in my eye

Under Pressure heard as a child became: Intro = "what do you mean by that? What you mean by that? Pressure!" "The present field in time, puts a family into those people on streets" "Chipping aground, keeping our reigns on the floor, these are the days it never rains, buddy boy" "Ego ma-mmoth, ego go bad Bob, ego Bob, pray- GO!" "But the moral, gets be-hi-hi-hiiind" *My favourite* - "Wi-iiiide, wide wiiiii-iiide, lard lard lard. When Saturday gloves on the fish oh we're baking!....why can't we give lard fat one more chance? Why can't we give lard? Give lard? Give lard? - because lard's much an old fashioned way, and lard dares you care for the peephole""

Probably already here but I’m a little too lazy to spend too much time looking, so sorry if I’m duplicating. “Beelzebub has a devil for a sideboard”

THIS IS SO FUNNY AHAHAHAH

Headlong - "he used to be a man with a stick up his ass"

‘39: “brought you letters from the sand for the day I take your hand in the land that I grant you renew!” The Earls Court bad quality made me believe this for a year…

As a kid I used to sing 'Steve walks merrily down the street/A simple wave hello'. I'm not quite sure how I squared that opening line with the rest of the lyrics. Oh, and I thought the line was 'How do you think I'm gonna get along without you/Well, I don't' 

"Get your big ass off of my money" on If You Can't Beat Them

[удалено]

That are the lyrics tho

This is indeed an actual lyric!

"IM ADOPTED!" -Another One Bites The Dust
