I had some trouble with tracks on Queen II, but other than that not much confusion. At least Freddie wasn't as bad as Steve Winwood or Chrissie Hynde :-P
Or Mick Jagger. I can never understand what he's saying. Same with Kurt Cobain.
In Death On Two Legs, when he says "Talk like a big buisness tycoon", I always thought he said "Talk like a big bitch 'n it's not cool"
(I actually like my version better . . .)
In BoRhap, I always thought "Anyway the wind blows" was "Hit me where the wind blows" even though it makes no sense.
In Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy, whenever he said "because I'm a good old fashioned lover boy", I always thought he was singing "because of a good old fashioned lover boy", and for the longest time I thought he was singing about some lover boy of his, rather than BEING a lover boy himself, so I was really confused at to why everyone said Freddie kept his sexuality really private . . .

I had 'hit me where the wind blows' too.
Last one of these threads I cited FBG and said that I always thought "Hold on/I say cool it man..." was "Hot Dog". It didn't take someone long to tell me that "Hot Dog" was right in the first place.
So I guess you could call that a misheard misheard lyric.

My ex-gf always thought on Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon, instead of "Fridays I go painting in the Louvre" that he said "Fridays I go painting in the nude"....LOL!
Of course, she also thought at the beginning of The Beatles' All You Need Is Love, instead of saying "Love, Love, Love", they were saying "Blah, Blah, Blah"

Ya...before I even thought to look at the lyrics in the cd cover I used to think in Bohemian Rhapsody in the part when Freddie sings..."so you think you can stop me and spit in my eyes." he was saying, "so you think you can stop me and spit while I."
In Don't Stop me Now, when Freddie sings, "I'm a sex machine ready to reload." I thought he was saying, "I'm a six machine ready to reload."
I'm sure there are a bunch more but I just don't wanna spend too much time thinking about...time to move on to the next topic...lol.

Here's a webpage where about 400 people told what they though the lyrics were.
