Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Phish

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!).

Phish's, "Chalk Dust Torture"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Come stumble my mirthbeatin' worker
I'll j*** on your family burger.
The Real Lyrics:
Come stumble my mirth beaten worker
I'm Jesmund, the family berzerker.
The Story: I was with my friend listening to this song for the first time a long time ago. I heard the first line where this line is said and I misheard it. We couldn't stop laughing. Granted we were high at the time, but it was hilarious. We listened to that one like for over thirty minutes straight. Then we just sat with the music blasting playing video games and bobbing our heads the whole time. - Submitted by: Sam Roberts
