Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> 50 Cent

Misheard lyrics (also called mondegreens) occur when people misunderstand the lyrics in a song. These are NOT intentional rephrasing of lyrics, which is called parody. For more information about the misheard lyrics available on this site, please read our FAQ.

This page contains a list of the songs that have stories about their misheard lyrics submitted.

Song names are sorted by first letter, excluding A and The. This is sorted by song title only, not by song title and performer. So if two different performers preformed the same song, you'll see misheard lyrics for both on the same page (provided the song title was spelt the same both times, and misheard lyrics have been submitted for both!).

50 Cent's, "In Da Club"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Go Charlotte, it's your birthday.
The Real Lyrics:
Go Shorty, it's your birthday.
The Story: My whole school misheard these lyrics. This song came out when I was in middle school, and it was really popular. There was this girl in a lot of my classes named Charlotte, and everyone would sing this part of the song to her. Luckily she didn't mind, she was a popular kid so people didn't do it in a mean way. Anyway, when I was in high school the next year, my friend introduced me to her friend who was also named Charlotte. Like an idiot, I sang that part of the song and laughed trying to make a friendly joke thing. The girl looked at me like wtf is wrong with you and said those weren't the words. So I went home and googled it, and found out it's Shorty. Somehow my whole middle school including me heard Charlotte. Oh well LOL. - Submitted by: Emily

When I heard the dude say that he wanted me to love him like pie, I couldn't stop laughing. Then I came on-line to find out what it really was. I was disapointed when it wasn't 'pie'. It would have been better if it was =). - Submitted by: nadia_aidan
