      Good stuff. Keep 'em coming. A frequently misheard lyric came from Jethro Tulls ' "Aqualung" - "Spitting out pieces of his broken LUNG."...... I SWEAR  IT WAS'NT ME , A VERY BEAVISLIKE JR. HIGH SCHOOL FRIEND SAID TED NUGENT'S "Cat Scratch Fever " went "Well , I grabbed some pussy fur , put some Skoal in my hand !".

      I also originally thought "Sedated " went  "I get it from my teachers , I get it from my friends , oh no , oh no , oh oh", and still being in High School at the time , getting shot by both sides , it worked perfectly.

      I forgot one...When I first heard "I Wanna Be Well " by Los Hermanos Ramone, I thought it went "I Wanna Be Whipped" . I had a tape of some songs from The Ramones' 1977 show in Ft. Worth , and Joey says "WEEEEEELLLLL....AFTER EATING AT PANCHO'S (Gross "Mexican" Buffet.) ....I WANNA BE WELL !" . It was even funnier that I thought he meant the food was so bad at Pancho's , he should be whipped for even eating it....

      HOW COULD I FORGET ?!  BOB SEGER - "RAMBLIN' GAMBLIN' MAN".

      "You can have your FUCKING world , see ya 'round !" ("You can have your funky world...").
       
      John Battles said:

       There were a few misheard F-Bombs in the 60's.

      Bobby Fuller Four - "I Fought The Law"  "I miss my baby and a good fuck" ("..and her GOOD FUN.". ). Yes , The BF4 DID record a version with an "F- Bomb" , but , of course , that was not the hit single version. IF THEY'D HAVE DONE THAT , BOBBY MIGHT HAVE BEEN MURDERED SOONER THAN HE ACTUALLY WAS.

      Mitch Ryder and The Detroit Wheels - "Sock It To Me , Baby"  "Every time you kiss me , hits me like a FUCK!")  ("Hits me like a punch.".).

      And the FAR lesser known Ron Haydock's "99 Chicks" - "99 Chicks , and it's just my luck , ain't one o' these chicks I'd want to FUCK!". Again , there was a dirty version , and a clean version (Where the F- word is replaced by brief silence.) , but , all 37 people who heard the original single when it came out , did not hear an F-Bomb.

      Oh , yeah , there's "The King of Fuh" by Brute Force. It was on Apple Records. Does'nt mean it would have got airplay if he had'nt said "Fuh King" over and over ....

      The Who's version of Mose Allison's "Young Man Blues" must have got some FM airplay , even tho' Daltrey says "They got sweeeeeeeeet FUCK - ALL !!!". That's not a phrase commonly used in the States , so Deejays could have said it was something else when The FCC came a- knockin'.

      My Dad had a business associate that told me , back in the 50's , "You were'nt cool at my school unless you'd heard that new Gene Vincent record , "Lotta Lovin'" , that goes "Well , I wanna , wanna lotta , lotta FUGGIN' !"....Of course , Gene did'nt say that , and he did'nt say "Fuggin'' on "Woman Love" , either , but , as if almost losing his leg was'nt bad enough , between the censors and the Musician's Union , Gene  had virtually no career at all in The U.S. by the very early 60's.

         Black Oak Arkansas - "Hot 'n' Nasty" - "They call me Hot 'n'Nasty , they call me Mr. Fancy."

          When I was a kid , I thought it was "They call me Mr. Pansy ! ".

      Muddy Waters - "Deep Down in Florida"  - "Yeah , if we're not too busy , I believe I'll  stop in on you , baby , sometime." ( I think that's what he said , BUT , I heard it as "I believe I'll get myself circumcised !").

      Rolling Stones - "Citadel" "Candy and Cathy , hope you both are well."  "Kenya's happy , hope you both are well.".

      "2000 Man" "Oh , Daddy , proud of your planet"   "Oh , Daddy , proud of your phallic".

      "Out of Time"  "You thought you were a clever girl"   "You thought you were a leather girl.".

      "You Can't Always Get What You Want"   "I saw her today at the reception "   "I SAW HER TITTY at the reception".

       "Shattered"- "All this chitter chatter , chitter chatter about shmatter , shmatter , shmatter , I can't keep it away on 7th Avenue. "    "All this chitter chatter , chitter chatter , about smack ,smack , smack , I can't give it away on 7th avenue." 

      "Sympathy For The Devil" - "Killed The Czar and his Ministers" "Killed Thor and his ministers." 

      "Star , Star" " You'll get John Wayne before he dies."  "I guessed your weight before each night.".

      not a good song or anything, but I remember when my bro was a little kid he thought the MC Hammer song Can't Touch This was King Tuskis... Shitty song, but I think it's funny nonetheless.
