C'mon we've all done it...Got the words all wrong the first couple of times
we've listened to an Oasis song...Who's got worse ones than these?

UP IN THE SKY

Real lyric:

You'll need assistance with the things that you have never ever seen

What I thought it was:

You'll need a sister since there's things that you have never ever seen

***

(I GOT) THE FEVER

Real lyric:

I can feel it comin' in the air tonight and I know I'm not alone

What I thought it was:

I can feel it comin' in the air tonight, and I know, I know, I know

***

MY SISTER LOVER

Real lyric:

The dream I have can never be
To photograph what the eye can't see

What I thought it was:

The dream I have can never be
To only grab what the eye can see

***

WHATEVER

Real lyric:

You can shoot the breeze if you want

What I thought it was:

You can shoot the police if you want

***

LET'S ALL MAKE BELIEVE

Real lyric:

To the people who live the afterlife

What I thought it was:

To where people who leave the earth there lie

***

STEP OUT

Real lyric:

I can be a star in a beat up car

What I thought it was:

I can be a star in a Beetle car

***

DYKWIM?

Real lyric:

I met my maker I made him cry and
On my shoulder he asked me why

What I thought it was:

I'd never make a baby cry and
I'm not sure dont ask me why

***

Woah I didn't think there were that many! I bet there's loads of people out
there who thought it said "Bring up the bass", "Click with the bass", or the
funniest one yet, "Tickle the bass" (that was the lyrics on Ceefax on TOTP!)
where it says "Pick up the bass" on Go Let It Out. So come on, own up, who's
made worse gaffs than me?

Look at the major gaff this guy made tabbing out it's gettin better man
A
Say something
A G D A
Shout it from the rooftops of your head

? ? ?
A G D A
Think you realize all that ? ?
A
? ? ?
A G D A
Wishing on a wave as in a cell
A
? ? ?
A G D A
You should build a castle in your cell (in yourself?)

A G D A
Maybe the signs I've seen (2nd time:"songs I sing") are wrong
Maybe the dreams I've dreamed are gone
A G D
Maybe they're already long been gone
(N.C.) A F#m
It's Getting Better Man
F#m A
And what was that you said to me?
Just say the word and I'll be free
F#m Bm
And when the stars are shining bright
D A
It's Getting Better Man
F#m A
At first she knew who brought a wave (2nd time"I'm crashing in upon a
wave")
It's/She's calling out beyond the grave
F#m Bm
And when they're/I'm fire in the sky
D A
It's Getting Better Man

Final verse:
A
Build Something
A G D A
Build a better place and call it home
A
? ? something
A G D
You'll never ever feel that you're alone.

Hey, I made that mistake too. I think the 'mistake' is better than the 'real',
personally.

'I've been treated like a dog' is the real one.

I think the only lyric that I singed wrong for like 2 years was from
Supersonic.

I was singing: "I need to be myself, copy no one else"

Stay Young!

I always thought Liam sang this in My Big Mouth:

And it's a sound so very loud... that only I can hear.

But....Liam really sings:

And it's a sound so very loud... that no-one can hear.

Who feels love?
