      1. Heard a story about a child, who returned home from church after practice for the Christmas program. Referring to the song, “Silent Night”, his question for his dad was, ” What is a “holy infantso” ?

        1. that’s new to me too James! LOL .. sounds like the kid in sunday school draws a picture of the navtivity scene.. has Mary n Joseph and Jesus in the manger.. and a big fat kid standing behind em.. teacher asks who is this? kid says ‘thats Round John Virgin” LOL

  1. Oh yeah, there have been plenty of times I’ve heard something wrong or thewordsarejusttoogarbledorruntogethertounderstand…lol

    1. I was hoping for examples on here but it’s early I guess.. I couldn’t think of so many i’ve heard right when I did this nutpod. We used to change the words to some song from the back row.. “I was sinking deep in Sin… Wheeeeee” LOL

  2. So it’s Carmel,sounds like personnel. More like the ending of caramel… I here some of the funniest translations of names and places… Anyway heard butt dust before. That is the funniest.. if my kid was to ask me that during a service they’d have to throw me out of the room. I’d have the whole room rolling on the floor. But aren’t we all carnal in some way shape or fashion. Oh and the soda of all the flavors mixed, in Greeley we called it a “suicide”. Don’t know why….

  3. I’m trying to compile a list of misheard lyrics from my childhood. Of course the one from the secular world that’s can’t be topped from Mr. Jimi Hendrix: “‘scuse me while I kiss this guy”.

    A worship leader/song writer I used to work with wrote a worship song that we recorded called “Come Be God” but all of us in the band heard it as “Gumbi God”, which is even funnier when you imagine someone worshipping the claymation character.

    I have to go through and listen to CCM songs I listened to when I was younger, but I had all kinds of made up lyrics since there was no internet to look them up back then.

    DC Talk – “You Consume Me” – heard as “You can sue me. You can sue me. Anytime any place you invade my space” – definitely sounded like a law suit
    Newsboys – “Entertaining Angels – heard as “Entertaining angels by the light of the Gee that’s great.”…supposed to be “the light of the T.V. screen” – they get a pass for being Aussies.

    That’s it for now but I’ll be listening for more.

  4. This episode reminded me of something that happened at a cast party for a musical that I was in. We were at a restaurant that served alcohol and the music director was quite tipsy. It just so happened that they were also doing karaoke in the restaurant bar. Well, he started laughing hysterically for what scene like no reason. When he finally stopped laughing he asked us if we’d ever heard songs and misunderstood the words. He then went on to tell us how for a very long time he thought the song by The Beatles, strawberry Fields forever, was saying strawberry pills for rabbits. That was over 30 years ago and I still laugh about it all the time.

  5. This one goes back away… Back when my mom and dad used to watch PTL, I heard a song that Tammy Faye sang where it sounded like “he is exhausted on pot” lol …I was 13

      1. The actual lyrics were “he is exalted on high” … but every time I heard it, I thought she was singing. He is exhausted on pot. This was before I got saved.

  6. For real. You make me laugh! And I love to laugh, it’s my favorite!! Been listening to you for decades, faves are “after this day is gone”, cuz, well u know! And Blue Skies cuz hit that swanky ba-doop goin on. ☺️. So anyway…. I have a dear friend that grew up with his parents listening to Neil Diamond all the time…. It’s ok, he turned out normal. Whenever “Forever in Blue Jeans” would play, he would ask his mom, “who’s Reverend Blue Jeans”? Ur welcome!
    Be blessed and keep laughing!
