"Excuse me while I kiss this guy"

"Hold me closer, Tony Danza"

I want a piece of bacon

We've all heard about these famously misheard lyrics. Those are funny, but they're also very well documented.

That's why we want to hear stories of misheard song lyrics that are particular to you, a song lyric that you had misinterpreted on your own.

To illustrate the type of story we're looking for, The Current's staff share their unique stories to help get you started.

Then be sure to listen to the 9:30 Coffee Break as we celebrate more misheard song lyrics.

(Also, you know I'm a child of the '80s, because in "Change of Heart," I've always heard Cyndi Lauper singing about "when adventures like Cosby would rise." It's actually "when adventures like cars we would ride," which is a lyric no one could really be blamed for misunderstanding.)

It didn't dawn on me until much later, when I heard Will Ferrell singing the song on SNL, just how kind of creepy the lyrics are.
