Botched song lyrics

Have you been singing a song all your life, just to find out you've got the words wrong?

In a different thread, someone botched "We all know that crap is king".....when it really says "We all know that Kraft is king", from Don Henley's "Dirty Laundry".

What have you been singing wrong for years?

Good King Wenceless last looked out on the feast of Stephen

Rather than

Good King Wenceslas looked out....

The Rolling Stones - Citadel

Just learned that it's "Candy and Taffy" instead of years spent singing "Candy and Cathy".

Thank God for YouTube!

It's odd, a google search has different sites listing "crap" and some list "Kraft".
This one song seems to have many many other misheard words.

Yes I understood you, I was requesting that you post some of the many words from that song which people have mixed up/mistaken.

Okay, correct lyrics:
"Get the widow on the set"
"Kick 'em when they're stiff"
"We can do the innuendo"

Incorrect:
"Get the window on the set"
"Kick 'em when they're sick"
"We can do it in a window"

There are more, but these are a few.

And the lyrics still barely make logical sense.
Great song. Pure Art!

Although, Manfred must have been writing that while on psilocybin. 😀
