Misheard Lyrics Story:

"I Ain't Gonna Stand For It"

Misheard Lyrics:

I ain't goin' to Stanford, baby.

Original Lyrics:

I ain't gonna stand for it, babe.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Tom Regner

I have this song by two different artists. While listening to them back to back one day (while doing housework), I found myself singing, 'I ain't goin' to Stanford, Baby!' out loud. I thought, 'That can't be right.' Listening more closely, I found my error, but it was one of those songs that to me was more about the way it sounds than what it says.

Repetitive Lyrics:

"Isn't She Lovely"

The Repetitive Lyrics:

Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderfull
Isn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love

Why They're Repetitive:

This is pretty much the entire song.

Submitted by: Paul Warren	"Girl Blue" The Nonsensical Lyrics: Shifting breezes, grace the inner spectrum of your glance. Leaves on branches, for your pleasure, perform a soothing dance.

Misrhymed Lyrics:

"I Just Called To Say I Love You"

The Misrhymed Lyrics:

I just called to say 'I love you'
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say 'I love you'
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart.

Why They're Misrhymed:

I know Mr. Wonder can rhyme better than that. It sounds like he's not even trying.

Submitted by: soul

Inappropriate Lyrics:

"As"

The Inappropriate Lyrics:

Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4.

Why They're Inappropriate:

I'm sorry, the rest of the song sounds good it's just that this line doesn't really sound appropriate in the song. He keeps saying how he'll love her until the world ends and the mountains crumble and the sun dies and then he has to say something about math. I'm sorry I'm not trying to insult Stevie's song writing ability it's just that this sounds like something I would write (which is never a good thing!)

Dirty Lyrics:

"My Love Is On Fire"

The Dirty Lyrics:

I want to feel your love
I need to feel your love mixed with mine

Why They're Dirty:

Maybe I'm miscontruing the context here but the last line especially is so disturbing it made me nauseous thinking about it - because standalone and stripped of that particular potential connotation, it doesn't make any sense. Can we say 'too much information'? Especially from Mr. Wonder, I'm surprised.
