I'd help if I could. But I can't.

First time I heard ELO's "Strange Magic" I came in at the chorus, and
what I heard was "Gotta strain my dick".

Not mine this one but I heard it from somebody else:
Misheard: " Hey, all the young dudes, carry canoes"
Actual: "Hey all the young dudes, carry the news"
I also remember my father being outraged when he first heard "Purple Haze"
because he thought that Hendrix was singing "excuse me while I kiss this
guy"
And although not a song I always liked this:
"Let us remember Our Lord and the prairie tortoise"

Or that favorite hymn of the kindergarten Sunday-School class, "Gladly,
the Cross-Eyed Bear"
