Your favorite mondegreens?

[Cloud]

"Olive the Other Reindeer?" "Scuse me, while I kiss this guy?"

While (ahem!) researching the lyrics to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, I found out that those misheard lyrics and similar auditory misconceptions are called "mondegreens." According to the Word (aka Wikipedia),

The American writer Sylvia Wright coined it in an essay "The Death of Lady Mondegreen", which was published in Harper's Magazine in November 1954.[1] She wrote:

When I was a child, my mother used to read aloud to me from Percy's Reliques. One of my favorite poems began, as I remember:

Ye Highlands and ye Lowlands,
Oh, where hae ye been?
They hae slain the Earl Amurray, [sic]
And Lady Mondegreen.

The actual fourth line is "And laid him on the green", . . . other examples of what she says, "I shall hereafter call mondegreens," such as:

Surely/Shirley, Good Mrs. Murphy shall follow me all the days of my life ("Surely goodness and mercy…" from Psalm 23)

The wild, strange battle cry "Haffely, Gaffely, Gaffely, Gonward." ("Half a league, half a league,/ Half a league onward," from "The Charge of the Light Brigade")

well, at least I got a new word out of it!
