This one's not so funny, but it puzzled me:
In DC*B's song, "Oh Happiness":
The real thing was, "That's grace, enough for us and the whole human race"
I heard, "That's grace, and not for us but the whole human race..."

In "Angels We Have Heard On High", for the "Gloria, in excelsis Deo!" line, I always thought it said, "Gloria, in Chelsey's day... oh!"

^^ that is SO funny!
Switchfoot's "Hello Hurricane"

This line is from the song 'Big Girls Don't Cry'.
Real lyrics: "And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket"
Mistake: "I'm not gonna miss you like chopped pieces in a blanket"
I recently hear Falling Up's song Hotel Aquarium and I made almost the same mistake that MissAravis did
real song: To the heights, to the heights, there is hope
mistake: two thighs, on thighs, there is soap
mistake: "All your dead head furry is not enough......"
From The Beautiful Letdown:
Real: We are a beautiful letdown
Painfully uncool
Mistake: We are a beautiful letdown, painfully uncouth.
Being uncool is bad enough, but uncouth!
mistake: two thighs, on thighs, there is soap
It really does sound like that though!
Real: Hey kids, we can be the ones!
Mistake: Heck yes, we can be the ones!

Real: So take as read, the Word has said,

Real: Not for the years of time alone, but for eternity
I heard: Not for the years of time alone, not for eternity.
That's a hymn. It sounds scary!
Anberlin's song "Godspeed":
real song: "God save the eyes that dim tonight....."
mistake: "God said the eyes were dim tonight......"
Anberlin's song "Breathe":
real song: "I can finally move, world feels revived......"
mistake: "I can finally move, word is denied......"

Third Day's "This is Who I Am":
Correct: I'm the father of blessings
I heard: I'm the father of a less saint
A little confusing. He says "blessings" as if it were three sylables, which is, I think, where part of the mix-up came from.

He says it kinda like "I'm the father of a-blessings" you know how singers sometimes add "a (pronounced "uh)" before a word when they're singing...that's probably why you misheard it
Today at school two of my friends were singing this song.. I think it's called "You Set Me Free" or something. Not sure. Anyway, I heard:
"And I held this pretzel I could see"
apparently the lyrics are:
"And time held its breath so I could see"
..yeah.

Oh, this is fun...
I can't remember the many misheard lyrics of my childhood, but here are a few...
From Aladdin, "Prince Ali (Reprise)"
Real:
"His personality flaws
give me adequate cause"
Heard:
"His person all of the drawers
give me all of the caws"
"Jingle Bells"
Real:
"Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh"
Heard:
"Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one or soap in sleigh"
"I am a Child of God"
Real:
"Lead me, guide me, walk beside me"
Heard:
"Lead me, guide me, rock beside me" (I think this is because my mom would sing this when she rocked me to sleep)
There are several more, but I can't remember them exactly right now...

Needle and Haystack Life by Switchfoot

I have no idea what I was thinking
