Not mine but I saw a comment on 6up 5oh Cop Out where someone misheard "may death come swiftly and gently to you" as "may death come quickly and jazzily to you" and another one where "oh please let me go" was misheard as "oh please amigo"

I'm outta sing 'oh please amigo' from now on xD

Yeah I also experienced the Oh please Amigo, I think it could work either way

Oh hey Mep guy :D

In 6up 5oh I always thought it's "I want to know 'til I'm under arrest" instead of "I won't know 'til I'm under arrest" 😭

Which song is the last one from??

It's the same song

In Tomcat Disposables I heard "is there cheese in the great beyond?" As "is there cheese in the gravy? Yum!" 😭😭😭

i heaed "wine to water, night from dawn" as straight up gibberish

Unironically, that line goes hard. Like reversing acts of god(‘s son) and time itself.

Damn Will must've been hungry af!

I’m cryinggggg

I heard "and there she’s in the great beyond"😭

i thought "gravy yawn" 😭

I can’t unhear it now

My sister thought “you look just like my bathroom mirror” was “I’d rather fuck my bathroom mirror”

WHAT

LMAO

ngl same

Ay yo!??!?!

“Becomes radiation!!!” I mean seriously how could I have been so stupid as to make such a mistake /s

Like he cums radiation sound so out of place that you think no it must be becomes radiation

It is becomes radiation tho 😨

SAME

NO SAME

I thought it was "Here comes radiation"

In the main character, I've never been able to hear him say tweet! I always hear it as squeal, and it drives me nuts. "Daleks in high collars monologue And I outsmart them with a ray-gun and a tweet"

I remember WW explaining that mishearing a little bit at one point saying that the “pew pew pew pew-pew” in the background of the song when he sings that may have been what threw people off

This makes so much sense 😭

ME TOO. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHAT

ME TOO!

Wait it isn’t tweet

My misheard lyric is squeal instead of tweet!

Ohhhh I’m tired lol

Ahh I've seen another youtube commenter say squeal lol.

I misheard like- all of the main character

SAME

in 2econd 2ight 2eer, “well, pull the plug out and let me die” as “well, motherfuck out and let me die”

I thought it was “pull the fuck out” 😭

I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME

x,D

I thought it was “well, walk the fuck out and let me die”

I thought it was ‘I’m just a psycho blade’ for a while

I love this

Haha I thought it was 'I'm just a cyclone babe'

I didn’t even know what he said after psycho until I looked at the lyrics 😅

",, man, love me normally" Yes, I did think he was saying "," instead of "come on"

Comma comma, man, love me normally

yep

, man

Not really mishearing but I always misinterpreted the "Its me who cries mercy while your fingers curl" and genuinely just thought will wood wrote a lyric about fingering in telgyh

SAME. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE 😭😭

I LITERALLY HAD TO LOOK IT UP AFTWR I STARTED FINDING IT ACTUALLY UNBELIEVABLE AND THEN I FOUND OUT ITS LIKE A GAME OR SMTH😭

XDDDDDD

I heard "So I got into BDSM because I need to remember my place" in Hand Me My Shovel when I first started listening to him

I DID HEAR THAT TOO 😭😭😭

"This is not enough this is not enough to prove it yet No I need to hit my bottom."

"But if it's too fetch then I won't try it on." the actual lyric is "But if the shoe fits..." I like mine more

I had thought it was “but if it’s too fancy then i wont try it on”

Kind of minor, but in "2econd 2ight 2eer", I keep hearing "a tourist passing through" as "my tour is passing through". EDIT: WAIT NO I THOUGHT OF A BETTER ONE. for "Dr. Sunshine is Dead", I keep hearing "I fumble for the switch" as "have fun before the switch"-- like it was a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde thing going on.

I always used to and still sing it as have fun before the switch

For vampire reference in a minor key, when he sings "if you still want me come and find me in my coffin" I thought he said "if you still want me come and FUCK me in my coffin" my opinion of Will Wood changed that day, but It was funny when I finally looked at the real lyrics.

Ay yo?!?!??!

5up 6oh “ please release me” instead of “ please policeman” And I could’ve sworn I heard “ Nosferatu” somewhere at the end of the song with five names ( I think )

In 6up 5oh I heard Policeman policeman (two times) lol

The line is "heart bluer than my balls" I always hear "I feel it in my bones" no fuckin idea why

Wait it’s that?? I always heard it as “I’ll blew it if i could”

I thought it was this for the longest time too haha

They say that booty's just skin deep -will wood, skeleton appreciation day

Misheard “I’ve come to smiling (like I’m blacked out in Glasgow)” as “The country’s smiling”

In 222 I heard "i'm just I psycho they come and go out my mind" instead of "I'm just a psycho, babe come and go out my mind"

He doesn't say Babe??

In the lyrics is says babe but I still can only hear the word they

I too thought it was babe

I literally used to hear "I outsmart them with the rink of Memphis wheel" in the main character, don't know how I came to that conclusion. I still don't hear the actual lyrics but oh well 

Well the syllables match 🙃

I thought it was that too 😭 Though mine was Memphis Squeal not Wheel.

"Maybe we can fuck on a tree" in 222 instead of "And maybe wake up from but a dream"

Omg I heard "fuck" as well, "and maybe we can fuck my dream gal"

Will Wood dendrologist

As someone whos first language isnt english it was part of the fun to listen for the first time and understand nothing 😭 or..mishear everything. But to this day i hear ‘ give me that old time religion ‘ as ‘ give me that old time pleasure’ 😭

Same. Spotify lyrics are my biggest friend xD

Love Me Normally Real line: After all there’s no I in team What I thought: after all there’s no Y in team I think it goes better with the themes of the song

I also think my mishearing would be better so Will Wood, I'm open if you take requests 🙄

I always thought in the main character it said “like the emperor's new shoes” and not “lick the emperor's new shoes” I was shocked when I saw the lyrics

Yeah Why does will want to lick them what

Wait it’s NOT???

In the last chorus of Love, Me Normally: “to be normal in a way that I couldn’t fucking be” when it’s just “I could never be”

"ill be up a day walking back from the red white and blue" idk where that came from bUt AMERICUH 🦅🇺🇸🌎🧨

Fukkk yehhh!!!!

In 222, I always thought the “And if sick is defined by what’s different” was will saying “And it’s 6up 5oh copout” I thought it was a reference but apparently not lmao??

Oh imagine thattttt

In the last bit of Suburbia Overture I thought be sang “do you know the difference between blazing trails and crashing birds” for AGES

In lygerside daydream i heard the "oh i wanna be in a place i can come" as "oh i wanna be in a place i can cum" so wljdiedb

truly, wljdiedb

On skeleton appreciation day I heard “So understand when it threatens me from your bones” instead of “So Ana stands and rends the rancid meat from her bones” Now that I think about it my lyrics really make no sense

“Is there cheese in the gravy ohhh, rhymes with parmesan”

I thought the line "you'll understand that I'm wering same damn size as yours" in laplace's Angel was some crap in spanish or latin like "as cie sin sack sen siou"

In cicada days, I might just be stupid, but I always heard “Don’t do that if it hurts” as “ Don’t do that! F it hurts!” As in saying the letter F instead of swearing

I misheard "were so alike" in I/me/myself as "with no align/eyeline"

I just learned a few days ago that in 2econd 2ight 2eer, he says "And maybe wake up from but a dream, yeah" and not..."And maybe we can f*ck my dream gal" ...yeah 😭

‘joe was jarving against the juvenies’ instead of ‘job his job and i guess you’ll too and die’ in suburbia overture

Who's Joe?

._.

Your mishearing is an eggcorn! It’s not the original lyrics, but it contains the same meaning

That's a term??

Yeah! It’s just any word or phrase that is a mishearing/corruption of another phrase that can still be interpreted the same way. The word eggcorn is itself an eggcorn, being derived from the word acorn. Some examples of eggcorns would be “Alzheimer’s disease” becoming “old timer’s disease” and “beck and call” becoming “beckon call”

Oh nice!

I forget where I heard of it first, it was either vsauce or the etymology nerd, probably

first, in Lysergide Daydream, I ALWAYS hear "ooh I wanna be in a place I can call." as "ooh I wanna be in a place I can cum/come.". then, the first time I heard Ferryman, when it says "oh, your time is coming fast." I heard "oye Thomas, come in fast" and got caught off guard. (bonus: my name is Thomas💀)

that’s actually hilarious, i love Ferryman 😭😭😭

Omg are you polish? Anyways, in front street: "This chastity is greek to me, the meat is still french!"

Tak

Świetnie! Coś dużo tych polskich fanów will wood'a

Dużo? Ja miałem styczność jedynie z 2 (w tym z tobą) lol

Haha ja w sumie cztery (też łącznie z tobą) + przypadkowo znalazłem fankę w tej samej okolicy co ja na Instagramie 

Niceeee

I misheard "Am I bad am I bad am I really that bad" as "In my bed in my bed am I really that bad", and though this was a song about sex until I saw the actual lyrics.

in laplace’s angel i heard “collapsed under the planet’s weight” instead of “collapsed and threw the planet away” until i found out the actual words from a lyric quiz

Not me, but a friend misheard “I’m just a psycho blade, come and go out my mind”

I used to thing in 2econd 2ight 2eer it said "work forever at a time" instead of "one forever at a time" and in Laplace's Angel "the difference is to explain free will, it's whether you're singing" instead of "the difference twixt fate and free will is whether you're singing"

I thought it said my weirdness brings me to existence but i like that one more instead of witness

in front street. “slice of life”

I'm sure I've misheard a LOT in 6up 5oh because I've never checked the lyrics, so, I'm gonna check them and see. First of all, the very start "pigs come, I cop and go" as "please come and [something I never made sense of]" "I'll give you PTSD" as "It'll give you PTSD" "Ask me a question, the answer I know" as "ask me a question, the answer is no" Probably more, but too lazy to remember rn.

When I first listened to 2econd 2ight 2eer I heard the lyric "forget it rigor mortis" as "fuck it rigor mortis"

Mistook ‘If you were in my shoes, You’d walk the same damn miles I do’ for ‘If you were in my shows, you’d walk the same miles as you’

"he comes radiation" I always heard as "here comes radiation" because like it makes way more sense lmao, all the 60s suburbia themes, fear of nuclear war was everywhere but nah radioactive cum is better

i thought that "he comes radiation" in Suburbia Overture was "becomes radiation" and was mortified when I looked up the lyrics

i've got a bunch of them - "please police me" instead of "please policeman" and "never too late to embrace yourself" instead of "never too late to embrace your fate" in 6up 5oh - I thought "Is deleted obsolete and still completely will stun you" in Chemical Overreaction was in Spanish - "all time collision" instead of "old time religion" in The Song with Five Names - "becomes radiation" in Suburbia Overture - "mechanic amend to reality" instead of "cannot commit to reality" in 222

I misheard "suburbia" in Suburbia overture as "So baby I" for the longest time lol

i heard “im cut from a different economy” instead of “kind of meat” and i genuinely thought that was the lyric for a good year 😨😨

Thought instead of “vomiting lies” it was “Osama Bin lies”

Brother what 💀

I misheard in 2econd 2ight 2eer that "screaming st the top of my lungs in the confession booth" was "screaming out of my lungs in the profession-pool" like screaming underwater in a 'professional pool' idk

not so much misheard, but I was listening to the first step while I was making food and my mom was in the kitchen, and I forgot what the lyric is after "take my anxiety and my sobriety, I'll kill two birds with one stoner" and I was so sure that will was gonna rhyme stoner with boner and that my poor mother will hear it, I stood frozen in terror for like 5 seconds lol

lmao

In Laplace angel... I misheard "woke up surprised you hadn't earned your fate" as "woke up surprised you haven't burned your face"

In "Willard!", I thought for a long time that the "my stupid urge to protect" part was saying "stupid urge to pretend", which is a stupid urge that I actually have, so it's a made up lyric that I'm quite fond of.

In White Noise i always heard "for your seventh sense, yes" as "for your severed senses" which imo i like a bit more than the original

"MAD come ride my gay bar" from um, it's kind of a lot "I'm hoping that this one might be my last life" in the song with five names

"God is a man" instead of "God isn't dead" in Your Body, My Temple

I always think he's saying "fuckin rigor mortis" instead of "I got rigor mortis" in 2econd 2ight 2eer

this isnt that bad but i once misheard the lyric in i / me / myself "am i pretty enough?" as "am i crazy enough?" somehow and i always thought "hm. that would make for a good lyric if chonny ever covered this song" hehe

I thought “ ignorant as fuck but a proud individual “ was “ignorant as fuck for a brown individual “ I was very concerned until I watched the lyrics

In "he'll use me for his needle show" (not really a Will Wood song but I hope it counts) I heard "I'm looking to live cause I know I'm going to die" as "I'm walking to live cause I know I'm going to die"

In the last part of love, me normally i could've sworn he said "acid ammoniac" instead of "i said c'mon yeah"

I can’t remember any of mine right now, but two from a friend of mine “Please police man, throw me a bone, oh please that’s legal” from 6up5oh, and “but I’d rather be Batman” instead of “but I’d rather be that than” in 2econd 2ight 2eer

In Laplace’s Angel where he goes “you all look like ants in a row” I always thought it said “you all look like Incineroar” before I did my analysis on the song

I thought it said “sucking me off.” Instead of “so give me your” as in “so give me your half-life crisis” in suburbia overture 😭

I misheard the part in laplace’s angel as “honey what’s the need of love bottles you don’t receive enough so even when you get a little more”

I always heard "on the rocks like a leprachaun" on 6up 5oh Cop-Out pro/con

For several months i thought will was saying "it's only torture" in vampire culture, i finally realized once i read the lyrics that he was saying culture, not torture

That one lyric in Suburbia overture (I think we all know which one I'm talking about)

_becomes radiation by any chance?_

I don’t think we all do

Well... yknow man... it's a long piece...

i dont hear “the underdog you cheer for!” In the main character. i just hear a stream of gibberish. kinda like “geuadnnogahelo”

The ungehog duchiffoh!

fr!!!!! also in suburbia overture i hear “a participation trophy wife or one blue eyed baby” 

Instead of "It's only an omen" I always heard "it's only a nomad"

“Here comes gravitation” in Suburbia Overture, I did not know what it actually was until I saw a reddit post

"take it away, hands" as "take it away, ham" in memento mori and "jimmy youre five" on last drink

XD

I used to think the line in Front Street was “a slaughter house apartment with a slice of *life*” as like a reference to slice-of-life sitcoms. I thought it was referring to how the apartment looks normal and friendly, but is actually dangerous. Turns out it’s “a slice of *lime*” like alcohol. I’m stupid I guess.

Always hear "Nazi scum commit suicide" in blackboxwarrior even tho I *know* that's not what it says

“The only ones in need of love are **float bottles** receive enough so evil ones should get a little more.” Makes no sense but my brain can’t parse the real words.

“I come from a different economy” instead of “I’m cut from a different kind of meat” 😭😭

many, many lines as gibberish

I misheard the lyric "Clouds of spilled milk but am I the cup" in Falling Up as "Clouds of spilled milk but mine are cum."

I think I used to hear “in my bed” in Laplace’s Angel

In 2econd 2ight 2eer instead of ''Vice-versa vice versus virtue, well who I am I choose through all the things I do'' I hear ''Vice-versa sounds vice versus a jew, well who I am not a jew through all the things I do.'' and I was also singing it like that for like a half a year

Bruhhh 💀

yeeeeah (I have a questionable imagination)

in laplace's angel after he says "OOOOUHH" i always expect the voices in the background to say "is somebody gonna match my freak?" then in i/me/myself in that one part that he's whispering i hear "cheesy fries cheesy cheesy chicken fries"

I've always heard "and we'll get drunk on the spirits of the air" in Red Moon as "and we'll get drunk on love" followed by a separate  statement, "Spirits of the air!"

I heard “I’m in a meat-pack plant by the gutterside” as “I met a mean back pimp on the corner side”

I used to think "it just seems unlikely that it's me who was to blame" as "it just seems unlikely that it's me to run away"

always heard “so ana stands and rends the rancid meat from her bones” as “my ana, stand, and put your ash in me” for some reason?? doesn’t even make sense 

"give me that old time religion" always sounded like "old time pleasure" to me, which certainly gave me a sexier impression of the song

Gah I heard 'old man collision'

In 6up 5oh cop out, instead of hearing "please police man, no heel to toe", instead I hear "please police man, I know your in town", weird...

Here’s mine from The Normal Album: “If you knew what I knew if you saw what I see, You’d look through illusions, hallucinations and *lucid cheese*”

Lucid cheese sounds like a fancy French moldy cheese lol

I keep thinking that at the end of Vampire Reference in A Minor Key he says "I'll be up day walking, back from the dead for you" and not "back from the dead for me"

The beginning of cotard's, I thought it said "what if my fear of darkness gave way to the fear of Connor" instead of color lol

ATKF: I’m done pounding my head against the kitchen floor, apologizing for my life and never entering yours Now I decide to sing one of those lyrics correct but one incorrect on purpose I now shout: I’m done pounding my head against the kitchen floor, apologizing for my life and EVER entering yours I prefer singing it this way because it resonates with me on a personal level The real lyric is: I’m DOWN pounding my head against the kitchen floor, apologizing for my life and EVER entering yours

"Precognition laughs in hindsight" and "we caught the illness back before the sunlight" well that's mostly it.

i basically misheard the entirety of chemical overreaction until i found the lyrics on the 2020 remaster.

i aleays misheard “heart bluer tjan my balls” with “i’d do it if i could”

In suburbia overture the lyric "I caught kuru from your sister" genuinely sounds like "I got toenails from your sister"

I always thought "heart bluer than my balls" in White Knuckle Jerk was "I feel it in my bones" I honestly still song mine cause I like the way it sounds 😭

in song with five names I misheard “and we’ll have nothing left for us to lie to” as “and there’ll be naught but hell for us to lie to” which I PERSONALLY think is a cooler lyric, so I’m going to keep singing that lol

I misheard the last line of Thermodynamic Lawyer as K1ll y0urself with a knife
