Misheard Song Lyrics

For years I’ve sung the lyrics “Canned eels in my heels” instead of “Canned heat in my heels” when Jamiroquai are on the radio with “Canned Heat”.  I mean, for God’s sake…the clue’s even in the title!!  Still, I’m pretty sure it isn’t just me who sings along with what they THINK are the right lyrics to a song.  Do any of these sound familiar??
