I never had a damn clue what it was myself either until a mate of mine who is a die hard Def Leppard fan told me one day.  We were talking about the intro to Rocket where the lyrics are backwards when it says "We are fighting the gods of war" - backwards.  Then he told me that other bit of info about the chorus.

Saw Creed mentioned in the overrated thread & I remembered this one: The song from the first album "What's this life for", I always thought he yelled "Got a Wookie, Wookie, Wookie" at the end (Wookie as in Chewbacca). It was years later I learned it was actually "One king" or something.

When I first heard "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC, I thought the first line was "It ain't easy, living free. She's a Ni**er on a one way ride." But instead it's "It ain't easy, living free. Season ticket on a one way ride."

I could never figure out the chorus in Gimme Shelter.

Surprising to say the least when I found it was "rape, murder, it's just a shot away".

Generally, if I haven't read the booklet, I have no idea what people are saying in songs. Not even when it's my native language.

Lyrics are just syllables to me.

^^ Is that true (rape, murder)?? I never knew that. If it's the part I was thinking about I thougt it was "heyyyy Gimmie, it's just a shout away".


Also, 1 from a few years ago. I don't remember the band, they are a pop/rock band, had a song where it sounded like he sang "Fuck me like that". It was pretty popular & I was always surprised radio stationns were playing it. Later I found out it was "If I could be like that". Although, I think they knew it came close to saying Fuck, henece part of the catchiness of the song.

Actually there's 3 variants to the chorus. The first two are "war, children, it's just a shot away". Then it becomes "rape, murder, it's just a shot away" until it morphs into "love, sister, it's just a kiss away" at the end.

Fantastic song.
