Have you ever heard a queen song and thought the lyrics meant something else? I did in the song you and I, on a day at the races. I serously thought it said, not tonight, come tomorrow, when everything's sunny and bright, cause Freddie will be waiting for the moonlight. It's cause then we'll be waiting for the moonlight.
Does anyone else have any lyrics they misheard?

Hahaha, my friend always hears "im just a pool boy" instead of "im just a poor boy" LOL!
I can't actually think of any songs at the moment but I know what you mean though!!!! It's really funny actually.
In Seaside Rendezvous, I always thought the part, "What a damn jolly good idea" was just jibberish.
they have a whole mess of 'em at http://www.kissthisguy.com
I have 5 words for everyone:
"Steamboats ferrying down the street"
Gimme a break.. I was 9
"Steamboats ferrying down the street"
Gimme a break.. I was 9
like, everything in killer queen.
"she keeps moet et chandon"->"she keeps a mohesian sandal"(from the country of mohay)
"caviar and cigarettes, well-versed in etiquette"->"carry on, take a rest, we're bustin' etiquette"
"gunpowder, gelatine"->"godfrede and geraldine"
"wanna try"->"what a drag"
"in conversation"->"in compensation"
"met a man from china, went down to geisha minah"->"middleman from china, wouldn't dare to get yer mind on"(what does that even MEAN?)
you can imagine my surprise when i finally looked up the words.

what i REALLY hate, though, is when you mishear a lyric, see the real lyrics, and the misheard ones are better!
I swear in Staying Power it says "Let's get John to the groove, make him move make him move" instead of "let's catch on to the groove...".
Seriously, listen to it, ir really does!

I just remembered another one from Hot Space..
On Life is Real, it sound like he says "tossers in my closet" instead of "torso's in my closet"!

Yes. Killer queen is hard to distinguish. And so is seaside rondeview. Sorry. I can't spell that, and I'm too tired to look. Lol. I thought of another misheard lyric that I heard in somebody to love, but it's not the case. I thought it he said, I work hard, every day of my life, I work till I ache my balls instead of bones! That's horrible that I thought that! And I'll listen to the lyrics in hot space friend. Interesting.
yeah, speaking of hot space, what DOES "torsos in my closet" mean? maybe this is common knowledge...but it always brings to mind american psycho or greek ruins, or something.
My Mum always thinks Freddie sings 'Miss Miller' instead of 'Bismillah'..bless her!!
oh, i remembered another one! in "life is real," when he says "i can take it or leave it," i kept hearing "i can take it on ebay," which of course didn't exist then! lol.
I totally misheard most of the lyrics in Drowse. It was very funny when I actually took a look at the real lyrics.
