From the Pot,

"When you piss all over my black ghetto..."

Elepherious

On 10KD, i overheard my girlfriend sing 'angels on the sidewalk'... so we laugh whenever we're in the car listening to 10KD and drive past someone on the footpath...

but i shouldnt pick on her too much. Thanks to the 'carpet bombing' of tool in the house, she now listens to Tool instead of Craig David, Missy Higgins, and the latest Australian Idol. She is making good progress and is expected to recover soon.

"Why carry us behind you while the whole world dies" (Vicariously I live) ... the actual title of the song and I got it wrong.

In the words of Danny Carey: "I would like to thank my parents for putting up with the cacophany i have created for the past 15 to 20 years, Bientje and Satan...."

I used to think there was a segment in "The Pot" that was just full of like big words that i didnt understand...then i looked at the lyrics and it was

"Foot in mouth and head up asshole watcha talkin bout?"

i thought asshole was like vassel which id never heard of...but its not anyway so...

" Must be done, be true to jerk-off just like you" (Instead of "It must not be true for jerk-offs just like you")

"When you pissed all over my volcano (black kettle) . . . "

I thought it was some reference to their record label.

I must be out of my head.

These are great. This is the one that stands out in my memory:

From The Patient when he says "I must keep reminding myself of this, I must", I kept hearing "I must keep reminding myself I missed my bus" :)

I knew it was absurd, but that's what I kept hearing.

(self(other

Also a misconception I had when listening to Prison Sex... I didnt pay much attention to the lyrics back in the day so "i need you to feel this" I thought was directed to the listener... feel this song

I also thought that . . .

(From "Hooker with a Penis:") "Never mess about with a solider, dumbfuck . . ." ["All you know about me is what I've sold ya', dumbfuck."]

(From "Ænema:") "Fret for your Prozac and fret for your eyelid . . ." ["Fret for your Prozac and fret for your pilot."]

I still sort of hear the last one if I'm drowsy and spacing out.

"Takin' out a fat ho...order her the super size"

That's how I sing it at karaoke anyway.

PShepherd11

Umm...what part are you hearing this at?

base metal

@5.15 - 5.20...Just after the "drum solo" at 5.05...

See my shadow changing
Stretching up and over me
Soften this old armour
Hoping I can clear the way by
Stepping through my shadow (Takin' out a fat ho)
Coming out the other side (Order her the super size)
Step into the shadow
Forty-six and two are just ahead of me

It's not a misheard lyric... I was joking... me and my friend have "re-written" that lyric just for shits and grins.

weesper

I somewhere read that someone had heard 'burn the gym' instead of learn to swim (might actually have been on TDN like ten years past)

Amazonis

Eulogy - He shot all the elves (he sure could yell).

DON IOTAE

tomisatool

I had Maynard's Dick on a burned CD for like a year, so I was singing along to "Maynard's Dead (Maynards James)" and "Die six bullets at a time cause Maynard's Dead (slide six inches at a time on Maynards dick"and I thought the open center thing was about a gun...and "Take you to the back of the Tool shed, shoot you in you fuckin forehead(take you to the back of the toolshed, lay my dick on top of your forehead)"
