The paychecks probably disappear faster than the penguins.

We actually call any misheard lyrics the “CCS syndrome” because when I was young not only did I hear “pears skating lightning” instead of “earthquakes and lightning” I always thought the name of the group Creedence Clearwater SURVIVAL.
Another bad one from me: I always heard “Nose Bleed” instead of “Don’t Speak” by No Doubt.

Girls like you by maroon 5

Real lyrics
Maybe it’s 6:45
Maybe I’m barely alive
Maybe you’ve taken my s**t for the last time
Maybe I know that I’m drunk
Maybe I know your the one
Maybe I’m thinking it’s better if you drive

But I thought it always said baby

My name is Violeta and I am an editor here at Bored Panda. I love reading memes for a living. It’s obviously much more than that, but I appreciate the variety of topics, information, and pics I get to see every day and share with the world! Those funny memes really make my day too. Being born in the ’90s in post-Soviet Lithuania speaks more about me than I’d like to admit. I’m still learning about the world and myself, but I do love my friends, traveling, art, and my cat. My favorite fact to share about myself is that I used to hide meatballs in my friend’s pockets at lunch so I could go play outside. I wish all those meatballs could find their way back to me someday.
