Have you ever heard a song and wondered if its lyrics might have another meaning? Something that you may not have caught while hearing it for the first time? There are several songs, both in Hindi and English, that are often euphemisms or have puns hidden in the lyrics. Sometimes they are intentional and other times the song's lyrics are such that they can be easily misheard.

For example, if you have even heard the song Bhaag DK Bose, its lyrics might initially seem like they are about a man named DK Bose, but if you are fluent in Hindi and invert the lyrics of the song, then you will find the hilarious hidden double meaning that most people miss the first time they hear Bhaag DK Bose. 

VJ Hoezaay's online series, Misheard Lyrics, has shared several instances of dubious lyrics that can often be misconstrued and once heard, these misheard lyrics are unforgettable.
