Bad Company

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!).

Bad Company's, "Rock and Roll Fantasy"

The Misheard Lyrics:

Here come the Jetsons, 1,2,3.

The Real Lyrics:

Here come the jesters, 1,2,3.

The Story: I had just met some guys in my dorm at the beginning of the school year. We were smoking pot and one guy said 'You know what my favorite song is? Here come the Jetsons.' I said, 'You mean, His boy Elroy?' 'What?' he asked. 'What?' I asked. 'No, no. 'Here come the Jetsons 1,2,3...' You can imagine the hilarity that ensued with a bunch of stoned college kids. Kids: Don't do as I did. Say no to drugs. I got thrown out of that college! - Submitted by: Marklemagne

Bad Company's, "Shooting Star"

The Misheard Lyrics:

Don't you know that you are a suitcase star?

The Real Lyrics:

Don't you know that you are a shooting star?

The Story: We were singing it in the car one day when I heard my sister-in-law say it. I had to ask if she knew the name of the song! - Submitted by: Gutiarded
