Do you understand the words to the Mus U listen to

If the claim in this YouTube video is to be believed, that "here for the first time ever are the true lyrics to The Kingsmen's version of the song Louie Louie," it was 44 years before someone figured out what they were saying.

According to this Wikipedia article the recording was investigated by the FBI amid allegations that it contained obscenities, and "after two years of investigation (they) concluded that the recording could not be interpreted, that it was 'unintelligible at any speed,' and therefore the Bureau could not find that the recording was obscene."

Audiowoman -- good one about Credence. Another possible interpretation would be "third bathroom on the right."

What about " A girl with colitis goes by"? I remember a article by William Safire in which he said that a friend had named these kind of mistakes "Mondegreens". This is from a misheard line from on of my favorite songs, the Scots ballad "The Bonney Earl of Morrey". It goes "They have slain the Earl of Morrey and laid him on the green" which was misheard as "They have slain the Earl of Morrey and Lady Mondegreen". I have found that as I have added room treatment the lyrics get clearer, in fact improving clearity is probably the most important measure I have in judging wheather I have improved it or not.

Let's not forget "I'm Your Penis" by the Shocking Blue.

Listen to "Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress" and then read the words after.

See how close you come to getting them right.
