What's a MondeGreen? [Link] It's misheard word or phrase and happens a lot in song lyrics, but can be anytime someone hears something other than the intended words. The link also has the etymology of the word itself.

Here's some of my favourites:
Jimi Hendrix's Purple Haze "Kiss the sky" is often misheard as "Kiss this guy."
Nirvana's About A Girl "Aqua seafoam shame" as "I can't see for shame"
Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody "Open your eyes, Look up to the sky and see" as "Open your eyes, Look up to the sky and heave"
Metallica's And Justice for All "And justice for all" as "Unjustice for all"

Jon Carrol [Link] This guy does this for a living.
