Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Boyzone

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!).

My initial reaction is, honey give me love

The Story: I wondered for years why an old fashioned person would tell their girlfriend to pick up a random stranger. Not that the facsimile line makes much sense either. - Submitted by: Nicola
Boyzone's, "So Good"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Like sex understood
The Real Lyrics:
'Cos it's understood
The Story: I was 12 when I frst heard this song. I really thought it was about getting laid, I wondered why such a rude song was being aimed at young girls. (Goodness knows what my mind was like at 12) I am embarrassed to say I didn't realise the real lyrics until I read them a couple of months ago. And I am now 21... - Submitted by: Nicola
