A mondegreen (/ ˈ m ɒ n d ɪ ˌ ɡ r iː n / ⓘ) is a mishearing or misinterpretation of a phrase in a way that gives it a new meaning. [1] Mondegreens are most often created by a person listening to a poem or a song; the listener, being unable to hear a lyric clearly, substitutes words that sound similar and make some kind of sense.
The lyrics are famously easy to mishear. A 2010 survey found that the chorus line "Call me when you try to wake her up" was the most misheard lyric in the UK, beating second-place "Purple Haze", with the most common mishearing according to the survey being "calling Jamaica".
