MISHEARD & Sung Christmas LYRICS!!!

December 1st 2008 23:45
Christmas candles carols
Some more of those laughable misheard and mis-sung lyrics, only this time from Christmas carols.

1. The Christmas Song


Supposed to be....

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping on your nose,
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir,

Misheard as.....
Chipmunks roasting on an open fire,
OR.....Jeff's nuts roasting on an open fire,
Check for snipping at your nose,
You'll tide carols being sung by the fire,


2. The First Noel

Supposed to be...

The first 'Noel!' the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;

Misheard as....
The first 'Noel!' the angels did say
Was to frighten poor shepherds in fields as they lay;

3. While shepherds watched their flocks by night


Supposed to be....

While shepherds watched their flocks by night
All seated on the ground

Misheard as....
While shepherds washed their socks by night
All seated on the ground

Question: If you could live forever, would you and why?
Answer: 'I would not live forever, because we should not live forever, because if we were supposed to live forever, then we would live forever, but we cannot live forever, which is why I would not live forever,'
--Miss Alabama in the 1994 Miss USA contest.

Believe it or not, these are extracts from actual letters sent to various councils and Housing associations throughout the United Kingdom. It just goes to show that it really is all a matter of communication and interpretation. ; )

1. I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob off.
