my favourite so far…
instead of “Out on deck the dawn arrived.
Your grey sweater oversized.”
I hear
“Ant and Dec the dawn arrived..”
in Roller Diso Dreams
are there anymore?

My family is always good for things like this: I heard “The kids are s*it again” instead of “sick” the first time they played it live in Amsterdam and my Mum called me up the other day to tell me about an article she read about Maximo's new album “Chicken the heart”

Your grey sweater oversized = “You grew sweat and I arised” (which I only figured was wrong because Paul would never use wrong grammar)
I still hope that “I've got a bee in my bonnett” (Penultimate) and “I've answered enough phones for one life” (Calm) are weird mess ups in the booklet.
edit: ALSO!!!!! “I need to connect to you now” = “I need to get into you now” (Questing)

My favourite one is from Our Velocity:
“Is it cold where you are this time of year? You didn't need a scarf”, which I felt made perfect sense, especially in light of the question about it being cold!

why would
“I've answered enough phones for one life”
be messed up? makes perfect sense to me. I too think the bee in the bonnet is just a typo though!

Scarf makes way more sense than scar. When that song came out, it was something like -40 C with the windchill here. Scarf made even MORE sense to me then.

well i don't think it's a typo, i just hope it is, because it's a line i can't come to terms with.

When I first heard 'I haven't seen her in ages' I thought Paul had sung 'you got a new back' instead of 'a new bike'
@Red, I'm with you with 'Velocity' I thought he had said 'scarf' instead of 'scar'
|
I LOOKED AT YOU FOR TOO LONG THE OTHER DAY, IT WAS THEN THAT I KNEW YOU WEREN’T THE ONE.

I know the expression. do you know the german expression “einen spleen haben”…so in die richtung wenn ich mich nicht ganz vertue. I still hear different though..

talking of which: anybody care to explain “5 times 5 equals 25// don't you know your timetables by now” to me? i lovelovelove singing that along to the top of my lungs but i have no idea what the hell it's supposed to mean

I always heard “your short skirt” instead of “the shortest cut” in I Want You To Stay, still don't know how I managed to hear that, let's blame it on my poor 2005 english.

As much as I know it's “watching me decay”, I always hear “watching Peter Kay”. I know he's funny, but seeing him every day for a year would get boring, surely?!

I originally heard “All I needed was a windowsill” instead of “On our knees…”
|
|
|
|
|
in I Want You To Stay I still hear “I think of your fist at night” instead of face, which kinda gives me the wrong idea of what that man is into.
and in Kiss You Better it'll always be “who'll provide the prawn” instead of brawn, which is… horrible.

I used to hear ” I need to get to bed before I feel myself again” in Your Urge and in Clinical I first heard “oh its grim in here but when you whisper…”. which sort of makes some sense
