How about Rocket Man by EJ? Everybody always get the last line in the chorus wrong.

Here's the real words: And I think it's gonna be a long long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
 
I did it again. Elton John. Again. I swear, I should look up every song of his I'm familiar with, because apparently I have them all wrong:

Real lyrics:
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough

Me:
so goodbye yellow brick road
Where the donkeys on high like to prowl
Your cat put me in the pethouse
I'm going back to my cloud.

I know, I know, my version makes no sense. To my credit I did sing it quietly under my breath, and with a confused look on my face...got a clue when the radio announcer mentioned something about Elton going back to his plow and realized it was either an odd in-joke or I once again had no idea what the real lyrics were...
