Misunderstood Lyrics

One of my many amazing talents is my ability to sing the wrong words to any given song, and to do so often times in the wrong key...even when I am holding the song book.
 
When I do this (normally, 'loud and proud') my supportive wife often laughs at me.   However, there are times when she looks at me with a looks that says (read: screams) "OK, you can stop that now."   She does this without missing a word, skipping a note, or missing a key.   We are an amazing couple!
 
With my fore mentioned talent in mind, you will understand that when I found this list I had to pass it along to you.   There is little doubt that I will be heard singing these words (not always intentionally) in the very near future.   If you are lucky, I will even be in fine form and proper pitch when you have the pleasure of my serenade.   But until then, and without further ado....
