Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Arctic Monkeys

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!).

The Misheard Lyrics:
Montagues and Calculus
or
Montagues and Calus
The Real Lyrics:
Montagues and Capulets
The Story: Oh, I've done it this time. I'd always wondered why they mentioned 'Calculus' in the song, and what the heck that had to do with Montagues, or a guy named Montague? Montague doing an equation? Of course, my Father corrected me in the car. So, there is no exam cramming involved, just a well-placed Romeo and Juliet reference...dang me! - Submitted by: Pirka
