What did he say? Misunderstood lyrics.

My wife bought a calander with misunderstood song lyrics. The name of the calander is "'scuse me while I kiss this guy" from Jimi Hendrix. I remember hearing this while I was young and wondering what Jimi was singing about. All of the other ones I've read so far are really lame. So I'm wonder what your personal misunderstood lyric is.
I can't think of anything for myself so I'll do one of my wife's
Wrong lyric: "Only the lonely get laid." from The Motels
Correct lyric is: "Only the lonely can play."

Alright lets hear 'em!

Dedicatedaudio, according to the lyrics on the back of the LP jacket (The Roaring Silence):

"Blinded by the light
Wrapped up like a deuce
Another runner in the night."

Do you realize that this song was written by Bruce Springsteen, who also did a version of it, although the Manfred Mann song was the version that most are familiar with.
