I always loved “Come On Eileen” but the first year of listening to it I never knew half the words.

Don’t lie, everybody’s got em, so what are they?

Africa by Toto. Sang along to it for years and had no idea there was a 12:30 flight or that Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti. I have no idea what I substituted there all those years.

Louie Louie. I am not the only one who did not know the words. I did not use all caps below, copy/paste from link

quote:

INVESTIGATIONS OF THE RECORD WERE STARTED BY THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (FCC), THE POST OFFICE AND JUSTICE DEPARTMENTS AFTER COMPLAINTS WERE RECEIVED FROM ABOUT HALF A DOZEN PERSONS, INCLUDING INDIANA GOVERNOR MATTHEW E. WELSH. ALL THREE GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES DROPPED THEIR INVESTIGATIONS BECAUSE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT THE LYRICS OF THE SONG WERE, EVEN AFTER LISTENING TO THE RECORDS AT SPEEDS RANGING FROM 16 RPM TO 78 RPM.

Mondegreen... When you are receiving the same acoustic information everyone else is but you hear it incorrectly. My top two are Land Down Under and Blinded By the Light.

Lyle Lovett : San Antonio Girl

I used to sing along to this, way differently.

Well it was late by then
We should have turned it in
But she was hungry
And I was interested
In Mi Tierra's
Huevos Rancheros
We took some Polaroids
Right at the table

I honest to God thought they were saying "I'm gonna take my horse to the hotel room" when I first heard Old Town Road.
