Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> MIMS

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!).

MIMS's, "Like This"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Tell me what's good with a BK Sandwich
You want but I got what you need
The Real Lyrics:
Tell me what's good, what it be
Can't say I'm whatcha want
I got whatcha need
The Story: I always, ALWAYS thought he was saying "tell me what's good with a BK sandwich". I pictured him meeting the girl, they decide to go home but on the way, they stop at Burger King, and she tells him what she wants with her sandwich. Hey, Fergie still goes to Taco Bell. Maybe Mims still goes to Burger King! - Submitted by: Melanie Baker
