Or how about
I've got two chickens to paralise. Pack your bags, we leave tonight.
I think you need better speakers in your stereo.

I swear that is what they're saying on that one.
I'm quite sure they did.
The John Boy and Billy radio show has a parody that the call "chronic lyricosis" and play quite a few miss-heard lyrics.
Toto’s Africa. Until recently, I thought it was “I miss the rains down in Africa”

It’s “I bless the rains down in Africa.” I saw it listed that way on Amazon Music when I was listening to their 80’s channel, so I looked it up, and yup, been hearing it wrong for a very long time.
I once heard somebody sing "Excuse me while I kiss this guy", and now I can't hear it any other way
From Green Day - When I Come Around
The real lyrics go:
Well, I heard it all before, so don't knock down my door
What I heard:
Well, I heard it all before, so <mumble> Jem'Hadar
Green Day members were Deep Space 9 fans?!?

I used to think it was "I missed the train down to Africa"
Two of my favorites:
Tiny Dancer by Elton John: "Hold me closer, Tony Danza... Count the head lice on the highway..."
Spirits in the Material World by The Police: "Asparagus, in the material world... Asparagus, in the material world..."
In reply to Tony Sestito :
Every song ever, save two. I meticulously learned every word in "Devil went Down to Georgia" and "Can't Touch This". Tell no one.
Which AC/DC song has "Can I come in you please"? I have had people tell me what the proper words are, and I just can't hear them.
I'll never be your pizza burnin'
There's a bathroom on the right.
Am I showing my age?
This is what it's feels like to be hearing impaired. You wouldn't believe the things I hear. It's fun...until it isn't.
I think it was David Lynch of all people who did a sketch comedy special once, where one of the bits was an ad for a CD collection called "Misconceptions" It was a whole bunch of songs everybody got the lyrics wrong to. My favorite was "There's a Bathroom on the Right"
"Ain't no girl like the One-Eyed Gott"

Thunderstruck has "Can I come again please"

Heard on a classic rock station the other day, Bruce Springsteen's version of Because the Night:
"Come on now try to understand
I want a date with another man"
Annie offered up this one:
Beatles, "Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds"
Actual lyrics: "the girl with kaleidoscopic eyes"
Her perceived lyrics: "the girl with colitis goes by"
Shakin'
Eddie Money
I always hear "We did some shakin til the middle of the night"
as "Her tits were shakin til the middle of the night"
Louie Louie? Even the FBI had to look into those lyrics.
I just think Todd tells the story better.

I always thought that sounded like "selling donuts at my door."
Green Day has some other song that sounds like they namedrop Gérard Depardieu, too.
I can't remember all the ones I've butchered over the years, but the one that had me scratching my head when it came out was the Eagles Sunset Grille. Somehow I heard "Sausage Mill" instead of Sunset grille which made no sense at all. Fortunately a friend was able to correct me. My mother had a good one when I was a kid. Don't know the artist but the song was "My Eyes Adore You" and she asked my sister and I who "My Sid Arthur" was, she thought the song was about him.
