Lyrics you have butchered

I was listening to Joe Walsh - Life's Been Good and remembered how I used to butcher the lyrics in certain parts. The one that came to mind was "My brother Rodney does 185..." when it was supposed to be "My Maserati does 185...".
Anyone else butcher the lyrics to songs?

I like to throatily murmur away any time Pearl Jam comes on.

There was a argument for a long while amongst my friends about a line in the song "Tha Crossroads". I maintained that it was "I miss my uncle Charles, y'all." and a few people argued to no end it was "I miss my uncle jojo", which is of course wrong, and maybe even a little racist.

uncle jojo is racist?
My favorite was an ex that swore The Doors were telling her to "drive on through to the other side"

Somehow a friend made "Big ol Jet Airliner" into "Big ol Jed left a light on" from the Steve Miller song.

I love mondegreens.
Creedence:
Don't go 'round tonight
It's bound to take your life
There's a bathroom on the right
Hendrix:
Excuse me while I kiss this guy
The Beatles:
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with colitis goes by
Robert Palmer:
Might as well face it,
You're a dick with a glove
Elvis:
You ain't never pornographic and you ain't no friend of mine
and appropriate for the time, Nirvana:
Here we are now, in containers
