    We've all been there. You're at a concert, singing your heart out - until you realise you're singing the totally wrong lyrics. Thankfully, a triple j Facebook post has confirmed we're not the only ones that do that - so here's some of our favourite misheard lyrics.

    This person thought that Dune Rats had a really mean vocalist on board:

    Someone's son completely getting the lyrics wrong to a PNAU song - and it being even more on brand:

    Song not from this year but I heard my 7 year old singing Pnau - into the sky. “Ooh the toothless guy” the funniest part he was actually missing his two front teeth at the time ????

    RUFUS must really love muffins, according to this comment:

    My 5 year old has been singing

    What are The Jungle Giants up to?

    Jungle Giants - Used to be in Love I thought the lyrics were
