Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Peter Frampton

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!).

Peter Frampton's, "Do You Feel Like I Do?"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Me and black-eyed Sue
The Real Lyrics:
feel like I do?
The Story: Frampton opened for Journey and obviously we weren't huge Frampton fans because my husband asked me, 'what about black-eyed Sue?' I was lost until he started singing, 'Me...and black-eyed Sue.' I told him what the real lyrics were, he considered them and said, 'Maybe.' - Submitted by: Kelly Stowell
Peter Frampton's, "I Can't Stand It No More"
The Misheard Lyrics:
I can stand it no more.
The Real Lyrics:
I can't stand it no more.
The Story: I was too young to believe that pop stars could actually use improper grammar in songs. - Submitted by: Cathy
Peter Frampton's, "Show Me The Way"
The Misheard Lyrics:
And no one to relate to 'cept the sheep
The Real Lyrics:
And no one to relate to 'cept the sea
The Story: The studio that Frampton recorded this album in, was in a castle out in the English countryside. I told my wife about that before I played her the song, and so her misinterpretation was completely understandable...but utterly wrong. - Submitted by: Dan Amrich
