Idk why it sounded different when I was a kid?

……I think we all have song lyrics which we mis-sung in younger days and even though we now know the correct lyrics…?…we still sing our childhood versions of them…or is that just me…?…

Same

Or up until last year I used to sing :

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Fiscal bay
I've had nothing to live for
Look like nothin's gonna come my way

[Ninastar]

In that song by Macy Gray she says “I try to talk away and I stumble” and honestly in the last year I realised it’s stumble and not stumboke

What’s a stumboke? Not a clue, but it confused me for 3 decades

Oh and I thought it was bumbo bee not bumble bee, I remember telling the dentist that the poster was spelt wrong

He probably thought I was a stupid bitch
