1. "It's Not Fair To Deny Me Of The Cross-Eyed Bear That You Gave To Me" - You Oughta Know (Alanis Morissette)
Actual Lyrics: "It's not fair to deny me of the cross I bear that you gave to me." Alanis Morissette was about as big as an artist could get when she blew up upon the release of her album Jagged Little Pill. Several of her songs feature difficult-to-decipher lyrics, which shouldn't be that surprising considering this is the same woman whose hit Ironic featured no examples of irony - although that may actually be a brilliant statement in itself. When sang slightly incorrectly, the chorus of You Oughta Know presents an interesting visual of a dejected Alanis clutching a strabismal teddy given to her by her ex, Dave Coulier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UEWbTxmG9o Any other misheard lyrics that you know are wrong but can't stop yourself from singing?
