"Excuse me while I kiss this guy." Huh? Jimi Hendrix sang that? Not quite.

 

 

He actually sang "Excuse me while I kiss the sky."   Yes, misunderstood lyrics can be quite confusing at times, but in the end, still quite hilarious.

 

Here are some other confused lyrics that I have personally found myself singing:

 

Taylor Swift 'Blank Space'Gotta love these Starbucks lovers, they'll tell you I'm insane.

 

SIA 'Chandelier':  I'm gonna fly like a BURP in the night. Feel my teeth in the light

 

Magic 'Rude':  Saturday morning, jumped out of bed, put on my BEAR suit.

 

More Taylor Swift  'Shake it off':  Bakers gonna bake, bake, bake, bake, bake
