"from the Beretta, putting all the holes in your sweater
The money getter motherfuckers don't have better
Rolex watches and colourful Swatches
I'm digging in pockets, motherfuckers can't stop it"



i always thought the usage of "beretta" was referring to this:

as opposed to this:

so.......... there's that.
 
At one point I had the exact same misunderstanding. Can't remember what set it straight. Attribute said misunderstanding to my short attention span when it comes to listening to people bragging.
 
as a youngster [of maybe 6 or 7], i thought the van halen song "panama" was actually "cannonball".





to this day, whenever jumping into a pool i have the uncontrollable urge to yell "dweedoodoo dweedoo doo DOOOOoo..... CANNONBALL!".

edit #2: yes, i am a 30 yr old.
 
Japan-related, but I thought Ken Hirai's "pop star" actually went along the lines of " I wanna be a porn star" >.<


I guess that can be attributed to j-english....
 
i used to think jeff beck's "head for backstage pass" meant that the person is supposed to go to the ticket booth to pick up the pass....

when i said "i always thought.....", i literally meant always..... as in, like..... up until two weeks ago.








i'm canadian, we dont have guns here. we settle our disputes with passive-agression and chugging contests.
 
as a little kid I thought there were large groups of fish fillets swimming in the ocean

As a kid...





"Dirty deeds, done dirt-cheap" = "Dirty knees, THUN-DER CHIEF!"





Hahah...

i was scandalized at a young age by Aerosmiths "dude looks lie a lady" or what i understood to be "do the naked lady"

I confess that I wish I grew up in the same part of Canada as you did.
 
Don't know why my young adolescent mind turned Def Leppard's "Pour some sugar on me" into ... "Boys town, she'll be down, yeah" like some bizarre game of telephone.

Years ago when I did a bout of teaching, I taught him one class. Although porn wasnt part of the curriculum so it aint my fault :)
 
I would think nothing of wearing cut-off-at-the-knee DIY denim shorts (a la Arnold, not Britney) and a faux-fur coat to go digging.
 
For years, that bit in Grandmaster Flash's Adventures on the Wheels of Steel when the guy goes "I'm gonna tell you the story of my life" I thought the kid went "what happened to the tree?" instead of "what happened in between?" I made a right tit of myself once when me and the dudes were singing along to it (singing along to a cut and paste mix?)
 
i pronounced Constantinople "khan-stan-teen-oh-plee" until i was corrected half way through a one hour presentation on the armenian genocide by the young turks.





i stuck to my guns stating 'that's the way i say it, okay?'.... and then immediately reformed myself afterwards.... even going as far as correcting others who botched it.
