I mainly did it for comparison between real and the often misheard lyrics. But thanks for the suggestion. Might remove it in a future Misheard Lyrics quiz.
Name me two people who have always thought it was "I was 5 at the time" instead of "bought it at the 5&dime". Not even near the same number of syllables People who have heard the song more than once. You might be getting parodies confused with misheard lyrics. Other than that it was fun looking at what other people hear. I've always heard "I guess it rains down in Africa" or "I miss the rains". eh.
Judging by what gets posted on the various misheard lyric sites on the net (AmIRight, KissThisGuy, etc.), I'd say a lot of people are intentionally mishearing lyrics or claiming to have heard things that don't sound anything like the lyrics.
That is too easy if you do that.
