Slaughter a song?

 


Have you ever heard or read the correct lyrics to a song and it just blew you away because of what was typically said? Because all your life you thought it was one thing and now you realize that it is completely different.


I'll start.

There was a famous Christmas song. Feliz Navidad - sung by Jose feliciano

More many years as a child we sung  "Police a wi God" thinking we were singin the lyrics of the song.

We did not know spanish and what were were singing really sounded like it.


Another is Glasshouse sung by Peter Tosh

We used to sing  "If you live a glass house don't throw stones, and if you can't take those then you don't throw those."

Again sounded much like what was actually sung. We only missed the word blows but nevertheless this is what we thought.

"If you live a glass house don't throw stones, and if you can't take blows then you don't throw blows."


Drop the link of a song that you slaughtered below.
