I can't remember who did the song but there's one where the chorus goes "I'm not talking 'bout movin' in, and I don't wanna change your life" or something. I genuinely thought it was "I'm not talking 'bout the linen". And while I don't wish to suggest I have a linen fixation, I could never work out whether Bowie, in Life On Mars, sang "Linen's on sale again", "Lennon's on sale again" or "Lenin's on sale again". I actually looked it up so I'd nail it for once, and yet I still can't remember, so I've obviously got a mental block with it.
SteveD that kiss-this-guy website is a nice idea but I got irritated with it as it was stuffed full of people so obviously trying to be funny by converting lines they already knew into what they MIGHT be misheard as.

And oh yeah, Madonna La Isla Bonita - "Young girls with eyes like potatoes" and "Last night I dreamt of some pebbles"
I had a heated debate with a friend about that annoying Edie Brickell song "I Know What I Know", I was convinced she said "Choke me in the shallow water" which seemed feasible (and a good idea too). But he rightly said it was "chuck" in her over-emphasised country-girl accent.
