Favorite misheard lyrics - this should be fun!

OK, everyone. Not to quote the usual cliche here about searching and not finding - but I did. So here is my topic -
What are some of your favorite "misheard" lyrics? These can be lyrics you actually did hear the wrong way, or you just heard someone else say.
Here are some of mine:
"Bad Moon Rising" by Creedence Clearwater Revival: "I see a bathroom on the right"
"Fly By Night" (I think) by Rush: "The chickens are coming and..???"
"Bad Medicine" by Bon Jovi: "Thoreau is like Ralph Emerson. Ralph Emerson is what I read"
"Rock Me Amadeus" by Falco: "Hot Potatoes, hot potatoes... hot potatoes"
"Hazy Shade of Winter" by The Bangles (their version, anyway): "Look around, Lisa Brown"
Let's see what everyone else has got. Post your misheard lyrics - deliberate or otherwise - here.
