Everyone does. It absolutely sounds like it, but if you listen to the original Springsteen version, it's definitely "Revved up like a deuce"

I have no idea what the "lyrics" are for the The Go! Team album so I just sing my own -- they're pretty good.

that actually seems to be a common mishearing of that one. i'm pretty sure I thought it was this too, at some point.

lol I've got some of their stuff and have to admit that I do this too. i can't figure out those lyrics for the life of me. are they even meant to be understood?

[RacersEdge]

I think it's Latin - and a Christian term.


Edit: Didn't see the link - I guess it's Greek.

Actually doesn't Springsteen sing "cuttin' loose like a deuce" there?

His original version is cool BTW--has like a million verses in it compared to the MM version.

Pearl Jam, Smile
Correct: "Three crooked hearts swirls all around."
Misheard: "Free cookies and s'mores all around."

I heard one of the most misheard was

"There's a bad moon on the rise"

heard as

"There's a bathroom on the right"

My wife thought that in "Sweet Home Alabama" they're saying "Big wheel keep on turning, carry me home to see my kids".

[/ QUOTE ]

they're not?!

In Green Day's "When I Come Around" I always heard the line "so don't knock down my door" as "sell donuts at my door"
