We are family by Sister Sledge

"Just let me state for the record" misheard as "Just let me staple the vicar" .. on Peter Kay's misheard lyrics.

Everytime I hear the song it reminds me

Rasputin by Boney M
'There was a cat-flap, then he was gone'
It's actually 'There was a cat that really was gone'

Bluebelle.. it is " another one bites the dust "

Continued.. meaning ? tonight I celebrate my love to you ..? ( or .. for you ??)

Mine is.. ?"Tonight I cellotape my glove to you" ?

'Eternal rest give unto them, O Lord, and let the petrol light shine upon them...."

Said by a little chap in my mum's class many years ago, but I still think of it when I hear this prayer!

Petrol = Perpetual

Our eldest daughter is called Susannah which is why our children always sang 'Sing Susannah' rather than 'Sing Hosanna'!

We also have a daughter called Susannah and that was a favourite variation with us!

Yes I agree I was brought up in Southampton which had a city wall but I knew other towns and cities didn’t. So it made sense to me as a child that having a city wall or not was an important thing.

46Maggiemaybe, I thought it was my mancheros too!

Back in the 80s when I was at school Feargal Sharkey sang about a 'Good Heart', which, as a bunch of teenagers, we changed to a 'Good Fart', with (our version of) the chorus being ...

And a good fart
These days, is hard to hide
A good faaaaart, the lasting kind
A good fart
These days, is hard to hide
So please be gentle with this nose of mine

Yes, we were a bunch of typical teenagers but even now almost 40yrs later, if I hear this song on the radio when I'm in my case, I just can't help singing our 'fart' version ?

'Words' by the Bee Gees. When my DD was little she always sang 'Worms' instead and it caught on with all the family: "It's only worms, and worms are all you need ....."

These are hilarious... I haven't laughed so much in ages! Thank you so much for starting this thread.

Not as funny as most of these but my granddaughter used to sing

'Pat a cake, pat a cake, bacon man.'

so it was mournful. never heard of marty robbins, but like it.
many thanks for the information.

Is it "blue is my heart now I'm without you"?

does anyone recognise a line from a pop song of the 60s-70s?
"blue, blue, my heart is blue"
if so, what is the next line, as it has been suggested as my mishearing.

My daughter thought God was called Peter, because we would say “Thanks Peter God” - thanks be to God.

All in Sunbury ( All in sundry)

My 4 year old grandson is a bit of an ABBA fan and sings along to Super Trouper
But he insists that the following line
“was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow”

Is ……….”when I called you last night from TESCO”

A Paul Young song " every time you go away you take a piece of meat (me) with you"
