Misheard lyrics
How often did you found out that the lyrics that you thought you heard, turns out to be totally wrong? I still remember the year Rage Against the Machine launched their breaktrhough album and a friend and I were sitting in the bus louding singing "Worms, worms - yes, you got the worms". WE late found out that the lyrics goes: "Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn".
www.amiright.com collects misheard lyrics and some are very funny. Looking through the songs from Depeche Mode you find out that at some point someone out there have been walking around humming "Found new life in jeans and tights" instead of "Found new life in Jesus Christ" (Depeche Mode, Blasphemous Rumours).

Hahaha...someone misheard Condemnation as "Condom nation"...
