DEAD ANTS.
Put on your red shoes and
kill the ants.
RED ANTS.
Under the moonlight,
the terrible moonlight.

Andy Warhol: I used to always omit the "t" in cement...

Amlapura: "Smoking gun and space men" made me so much happier.

Moonage Daydream: Never really heard the comma in "The church of man, love / Is such a holy place to be..."

Ashes to Ashes:

In such an early song > It's such a lovely song

I've loved all I've needed to love -> I've loved and I've needed love
Sordid details following -> Sordid details fall away
and I Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair -> And I thank God all my men are lying on all hell

Thru These Architect's Eyes: I always remember "All the joy I see" as "All the promise I see" for some reason.

...I think that's all the interesting ones. Blurp.

i always thought it was isnt that neat too! and i have been listening to that album since it first came out as a record!

i kind of liked the sarcasm in, "isnt that neat." man i so love that song.

anyway heres another that alot of people did too but it was unintentional.. my daughter always thought suffragette city was "dont lean on me man you're a california chicken" from the time she was little until she was about 13 and was shocked that it wasnt. she still sings it california chicken anyway. but that's probably a common one too..

Oh! One important one I forgot --

Quicksand -- "I'm frightened by the total goal," I always hear as "I'm frightened by the tollbooth gnomes."

I really do like the latter one better, but it's a great song either way...

In Sweet Thing, I keep hearing:
"Coke, boys, is a cheap thing....."
instead of:
"'cause hope, boys, is a cheap thing......"
Everytime. Damn.

Is it nice in your snowstorm, freezing your brain?

I thought it was turn and face the strange, too, but leading into the chorus. Turn and face the strange changes.

There are a LOT more but one I just noticed yesterday (not a Bowie song) is "Boys of Summer." I always thought the line was after the POISON summer is gone...which really makes no sense...since Boys of Summer is the damn title....whatever.


I didn't eat today, and I'm not gonna eat tomorrow -- cos I'm gonna be a supermodel.

I do not come to the Interpretation forum ever because I thought it was too egghead for me! But oh Wow! This thread is funny!

I hope nobody said this one because I could not read them all! Did anybody ever hear that song that goes **Shave my wife I'm going down for the last time**?

"People say, how can I help on this war against terror? How can I fight evil? You can do so by mentoring a child; by going into a shut-in's house and say I love you."

No, which song is that line from?

Oh I am so sorry!! All those explanation points looked quite dumb!!?!

I do not remember the name of that song. It is very old. Like from the 70's.
