From Kissthisguy.com.Song: All For You
Artist: Janet Jackson


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The real lyrics were:
All my girls at the party.
Look at that body,
shaking that thing.

But I misheard them as:
Oh my God! It's a body!
Look at that body,
shaking that thing.


The embarrassing moment of revelation:
My friend and I were walking by a record store where the song was playing. When I heard that line, I asked my friend why Janet chose to sing a song with such morbid lyrics. It turns out she didn't and that I've misheard it all along.

I went over there to look around, and those were the misheard lyrics I found. Actually, there's one I could submit: "Sweet dreams are made of these." Since I couldn't tell if it was ease, or these.
