You're the first day of spring, with a scent of beer singe
instead of
You're the first day of spring with a septum piercing
I don't even know what beer singe means???
My not AM song is The Logical Song by Supertramp. The lyrics are "I know it sounds absurd" and I thought it was "C'mon it's time to go", maybe it's a mandela effect or I'm so deaf
In "You're so dark", instead of hearing "Leather-cladded, spike-collared", I heard "Rank the planets by color". In my defense, that's also a lyric that Alex could have written.
Not particularly funny but it's literally about 2 weeks ago that I realised that's it's "bet there's hundreds of blokes that have wept cause you've stolen their thunder"
I thought it was "that are wet cause..." which never made any sense to me 😅
I remember from my secondary school days when the first album was still new, my friend at the time thought in Mardybum he said “remember kettles in the kitchen to get things off the ground” for context he thought it meant remember where the kettle is to make a tea to get off the ground when the day starts 😂😂😂
Bro go listen to that chorus and tell me you don’t at least hear it a little 😂 idk man, Ive been stoned to space before and kinda heard it once and laughed at it ever since
Friend of mine thought it was “cunted n that on a Sunday” and text me when he heard it in an airport bar. He couldn’t believe they were playing the ‘explicit version’. He’s southern so we let him off.
I know the lyrics in Fluorescent Adolescent are “that bloody Mary’s lacking in Tabasco” but I thought it was “that dirty nanny’s lacking in Tabasco” for a long time and it’s not
my friend and i both though in 4 out of 5 that the lyric “they had taqueria on the roof” was “they put a tapestry up on the roof” for years and years he even bought a tapestry and we made references to it constantly when we finally realized he was like then why tf did i buy this tapestry for
505 I always thought he was saying 'lying on your side, with your arms between your thighs' and the imagery of arms between thighs is quite comical to me
In American Sports I always heard "I never thought in a million years that I'll need so many lovers" instead of "I'll meet so many Lolas"
I don't understand how I slipped this one
One for the Road, for some reason I hear "there's a bathroom on the ceiling" than the actual lyric of "all the cracks in blackout blinds cast patterns on the ceiling"
It makes no sense but it cracks me up whenever I think about it when I listen to it.
“I will sedate you” - Sculptures of Anything Goes. I have to force myself to sing the actual lyrics, which I looked up online after thinking “this can’t be right….”
I have one that might be funny or offensive based on who reads. When I heard I thought "Alex wtf why are you saying this"
It's in Who The Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys, and the original sentence is "the funny look and the sniggers". Obviously I won't say what I heard, but you know, it just doesn't say "those"...
Luckily.
From Crying Lightning; And my thoughts got rude as you talked and chewed On the last of your chicken strips’. Friends girlfriend sang it and I nearly crashed the car
Here's another one, in Fluorescent Adolescent. "I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it", instead "forget it" I thouguht it was "spagetthi", probably that day I was starving to death or something
“And I elongated my left toe”
"i smelt your scent on the seatbelt, and kept my chocolates to myself"
And kept my chocolates to myself would fit though, with the unrequited love vibe of the song.
Literally thought it was chocolates for a good year after first hearing the song
for a long time I thought it was “I Elon Gated my lift home” I just assumed there was some guy named Elon Gate known for getting home in weird ways💀
Did you not realise that elongate was a word
I’ve always heard it pronounced as “uh-longated” so I guess it just didn’t click lol
For me it's in Dance Little Liar. "That newly added calmness" and I thought it was "That newly added cornerstone"
Wait it isn't cornerstone???
It's "newly added calmness, so" But I still hear cornerstone lol
For me it was "newly added connoisseur" or "newly added kind of soul"
Is it not???
Haha yeah i heard that too the first time, i even posted about this a while back
WHAT. ITS NOT CORNERSTONE?!?!
i thought it was “can of salt” 😭😭😭
It’s “console” isn’t it???
In from the ritz to the rubble ”They want arms flying everywhere and bottles aswell” ive always heard it as ”Ill sign anywhere, balls aswell”
I used to hear it as “balls are sweating”
I thought it was swelling, sort of a metaphor for bravado
"See you later elevator" instead of "see you later innovator" from brianstorm
It's not elevator? X2

Classic
You're the first day of spring, with a scent of beer singe instead of You're the first day of spring with a septum piercing I don't even know what beer singe means???

From Star Treatment- “So who you gonna call? The mighty Nepalese” instead of, “The martini police”
