THE MISHEARD:
I want a duck shaped like a triangle
You give a toaster to Bob
| Real Lyric | I want to f*ck you like an animal You get me closer to god |

The story:
Naturally, I can't take credit for this moment of stupefying adolescent brilliance: it was the responsiblity of a long-lost friend at a summer camp. I think his rendition says much about the atmosphere of "alternative" rock in the mid-'90s, or something.

I thought it said, "I want a cracker like an animal, you spank me like I'm in OZ." I thought his mom hated animal crackers and was laying into him.

This is unbelievably funny, I cannot stop laughing. Definitely one of the best misheard lyrics of all time. It's the complete disparity between the sexual/intense lyrics and nonsense about ducks/toasters/Bob that gets me.

this is definately the funniest thing i have ever read. my friends and i often scream this version when we walk from school to the train station just because its less offensive to passers by and hilarious for us

How did he manage to mishear that lyric so horrendously when it's actually a fairly clear sentence in the song....especially the 'f' word...! Madness!

I have to agree-My boyfriend doesn't understand misheard lyrics but he laughed really hard at this one!
