^ Don't worry. The actual lyric doesn't make any more sense than that.

^ It's "Purple Wolfhounds," right? Or am I mishearing it too?
Just looked it up, and it is. Definitely makes about the same amount of sense
I think bullfrogs woulda been better! [emoji23] lol
Death inspires me like a dog inspires a rabbit
And then there's Peter Gabriel's "Games without Frontiers" where the backup singers are singing the French translation of the title, "jeux sans frontičres," but it sounds more like "she's so funky, yeah."
What we feel we have to solve is why the dregs have not dissolved.
Chris Squire sang "Silently falling..." I heard it as "Sundays are boring". A friend of mine heard "Chalet before you". I think I like both of them equally.
I heard Bon Jovi sing: "You need a love Band-Aid."
It was actually: "You give love a bad name."
"Marlins come out of the sky and they stand there..." Yes

Not prog but pop. However, I responded to this song and video:
In this manner:
Who is Blackie Elder?
Is he a character in Twilight, or the UK's equivalent of it? That's what his name sounds as if it is, and writing a song about a Twilight character fits in with LDP's style. He must be a big crush for young women, to have a song like this about him. Somebody told me that he was a cousin of Lady Mondegreen, and Lesley. Is that true?
There is still an argument about a line in Your Move (Yes). I have always heard "Send an instant comment to me". So have a lot of other people. Many years later I hear it is "instant karma". I remember a guy at the Yahoo Yes group getting all bent out of shape when I said it was "instant comment". As you might remember, the lyrics are not made available on the album.

In my head it's always "she got a big old va#&@a."
But speaking of SMB (even though they aren't prog) I used to think the one line was "shoot the children with no shoes on their feet" when it's actually "shoe the children."
Do not suffer through the game of chance that plays....always doors to lock away your dreams (To Be Over)
Speaking of politically incorrect mishearings, in Martha and the Vandellas' "Jimmy Mack" Martha Reeves sings "Hear me, hear me, Jimmy," which I always heard as "Hit me, hit me, Jimmy."

Robert Wyatt in "Alifib": "full of baloney"
(The actual lyric makes even less sense, of course.)

The old man of the house briefly forbade listening to a radio station after hearing Steppenwolf Pusher Man. I guess "Goddamn the pussy man" was just too much pimp hate for him. When those Cactus guys on Bedroom Mazurka from the Cactus 'Ot n Sweaty album started yelling "bad rooster sucker" the threat of censorship popped up again.
