Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Mono

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!).

Mono's, "Life in Mono"
The Misheard Lyrics:
I'll sh*t you. I'll sh*t you.
This dream, doo-doo.
The Real Lyrics:
Ingenue. Ingenue.
I just don't know what to do.
The Story: My friend and I both thought this was the lyric. When I first heard it, the first thing I asked was 'Did she just say 'I'll sh*t you'? We both laughed, because he heard it that way, too. To this day, we still sing it that way, even though we know the real lyrics. - Submitted by: Chris Smith
