Subject: Guess what's wrong on this misheard lyrics page

I got an ad warning that:


    Threatens or advocates for harm on oneself or others;

    Harasses, intimidates or bullies an individual or group of individuals;

    Incites hatred against, promotes discrimination of, or disparages an individual or group on the basis of their race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, age, nationality, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, or other characteristic that is associated with systemic discrimination or marginalization.


I can't identify anything like that myself...

Hmmm, doesn't seem to do that on my browser. In fact I don't see any bad ads there at the moment.

Knowing how sensitive some Americans I've met can be I can identify a few lyrics on here that comes under these categories.

In All About Soul the misheard lyric is She's got to be struck which could be interpreted as advocating violence towards women

In Allentown it talks about throwing the American flag in someone's face (which some might be offended by), and this has been misheard variously as flashed in our face and ripped a flag in our face.

Lots of people mishear Honesty as sodomy...

In It's Still Rock and Roll To Me lots of people mishear Beau Brummel as bull Brahma which might offend Hindus

And that's as far as I've got

Lots of people mishear "(in)side of me" that way too, and that phrase appears in many different songs.

that's interesting... maybe that's what might have generated the aforementioned "ad warning" yesterday.
