When I was younger I used to think the lyric in Conplicated was "take off all your crappy clothes" XD OMG same haha I also used to think the lyrics of Sk8er Boy were "well bad luck, that boy's mine now" - and kept on wondering why she always messed up the words live Now my English is better, and I don't have problems with her pronunciation PS: I've been looking for this thread for soooo long haha

OK, so guys I know this is totally off-topic but I just stumbled upon this thread and I want to thank all of you for your nice comments . It's been very heartwarming, honestly. I cannot find an exact wording about how much it has made my day. The fact that Janne still has that screenshot though -containing also one of my embarrassing yet RnR high school memories . I must say that I still like to sing the "it's in the Nile" line.

Oh BTW, I also misheard the "how much I mean it". I'm really bad at understanding rapping, so the "Bitchin' summer" part was very challenging for me. The whole "drumming on the dashboard, bumping to the beat, hit the windshield wiper" part was sort of undecipherable until I looked it up on the booklet . I also remember than when Girlfriend came out, I thought she said "I want you(R) money, it's so delicious" instead of "I want you mine, you're so delicious" and I went through a phase of utter dislike towards the new Avril because she didn't just glamour-ed stealing other people's boyfriends, but also doing that solely for money. Edited: finally I came to terms with her TBDT persona and I remember being on the playground at break with a friend explaining that I had "forgiven" Avril, and telling her "she's got an actually cool song about a serial blonde, blue eyed killer marrying rich dudes and killing them afterwards" Her: Isn't she blonde and blue eyed? Me:

Oh yeah, this thread came to my mind when my hubby was singing Bad Girl a couple of days ago. And he was singing: "Choke me because I said so, Stroke me and feed my EAGLE"

And he was singing: "Choke me because I said so, Stroke me and feed my EAGLE" the worst is that it still makes sense-in sort of a surrealistic way, but you can stroke someone and feed his eagle at the same time -how you get to that situation-how anyone owns an eagle-though...

When AL first came out, BG was one of my faves. One time I was blasting the song off my earphones, strolling around the mall, chanting along, without actually noticing the lyrics I'm singing. If I censored myself to "feed my eagle" I wouldn't have had that much salty looks.

"She wants to go home, but nobody's home. It's where she lies... Afghanistan!"

At the beginning of the Complicated MV when Avril says "Do you wanna crash the mall?" I thought she was saying "Do you wanna crash them all?"

In Don't Tell Me, instead of "I'm really upset" I thought she was singing "I'm really up sex" and I'm like.... what? And I also kinda hear it as "upsets", you know, with an "s" lol

For some reason, Avril is one of the few artists that I never really mishear the lyrics for.

In Sk8er Boi I heard "To show pretty face 'she' what he's worth" instead of "Does your pretty face know what he's worth"!! I didn't realise until Spotify showed me the lyrics tonight...
