We all hear the things in songs that... don’t quite make sense.

From Selena Gomez's "I'm farting carrots" (I'm on my fourteen carats) to other wacky, crazy lyrics that don't fit in AT ALL, what is YOUR favorite misheard song lyric?

Last night I heard this song and I couldn’t stop laughing because all I could hear was ‘needle in the bread ‘ 😂

    The paychecks probably disappear faster than the penguins.

    We actually call any misheard lyrics the “CCS syndrome” because when I was young not only did I hear “pears skating lightning” instead of “earthquakes and lightning” I always thought the name of the group Creedence Clearwater SURVIVAL. Another bad one from me: I always heard “Nose Bleed” instead of “Don’t Speak” by No Doubt.
